11 Cute Animals To Get You Through Finals Week

Ah finals week... the most stressful week of any student's career. They can make or break your semester, will keep you awake and locked in the library all week, etc. We all know finals week is scary, but you know what isn't scary? Baby animals! So here are some fun and adorable facts about baby animals that will turn your "I am so stressed out, I am going to die!!!" face into a happy face. So set aside your calculus book for a few minutes and learn about something you truly care about (cute animals) relax for a few minutes, you deserve it.

1. Cats will nudge you with their heads to let you know that they trust you. This kitten cannot nudge you (because it is just a photo), but if it could, it would nudge you to let you know that it trusts your academic abilities!

2. A Grizzly Bear's name comes from the word "grizzled" which means "streaked with gray". Grizzly bears may have gray hair, but you shouldn't; don't forget to relax this week in order to avoid graying hair.

3. A small town in Peru holds an annual Guinea Pig Festival which has a costume competition. Maybe after you get your degree and get a super awesome, well-paying job, you can take a trip to Peru and check it out!

4. When dogs are "play" fighting, they'll sneeze to let the other dogs know that they're just having playig around. Do not be afraid to play around a little in between study sessions.

5. Gray squirrels will bury their nuts all around, and often forget where they stored them, thus planting new trees. Like the gray squirrels, if you forget the answer to a question or two on your final, life will go on. Who knows, maybe that forgotten question will help your tree of knowledge grow in the future!

6. When a rabbit is happy, it will do a jump in the air where it twists it's body called a "binky". Don't forget to jump for joy when you finish a final, no matter how it went.

7. Red panda's use their tails for balance, and as a blanket. You can add balance to your life during the week by curling up with a blanket and watching a movie to relax.

8. Baby elephants will suck their own trunks for comfort like human babies suck their thumbs. Comfort is extremely important while studying, so make sure you do it in a relaxed environment in comfy clothes, with as few distractions around as possible. Having a drink and a small snack on hand isn't a bad idea either.

9. A giraffe can walk within an hour of its birth. With hard work and focus, you too can do incredible things in an hour (like write an essay).

10. Koalas are about the size of a jellybean when they are born. Remember to be like a koala, and get some sleep when you aren't studying.

11. Meerkats work together when raising and teaching their pups. Working and studying with other people is a great way to have fun while learning, and can ease some of the stress you'll have from finals.

While studying is certainly not as fun as learning about cute animals, just remember that after finals week, you can see your cute pets over winter break! And if you don't have any pets, treat yourself and buy an adorable stuffed animal to keep on your desk and be your study buddy, you deserve it.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

I don't think I say it enough...

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
