Ah the difference 24 hours can make. One day, you're dragging yourself across campus in *perfectly* lived-in sweatpants, leaving a trail of tears and cheetos in your wake, limping from one final to the next. The next day, you're sleeping blissfully on a cloud of down and denial as the smell of your mom's homemade Christmas cookies wafts up from the kitchen. This is the beauty of college finals. You spend two weeks in a panic, trying to making up for a semester of procrastination, but as soon as the last scantron has been submitted, you are done. None of that two-semester, high school class bullsh*t - you actually never have to think about physics ever again. So, in celebration, here's a comparison of two very important days in the life of a college student:
Finals Week
8:07AM
OH.MY.GOD. How did I sleep in this late?! I didn't even know I was sleeping, how did I get to my bed? Is that a flashcard stuck to my roommates forehead? Loooool. Okay, time for coffee
8:56AM
Alright, 4 minutes to cram. I've got this. I'm BOUT TO MAKE THIS TEST MY.... Wait, what is that girl talking about? What does she mean we're supposed to know the entire table from chapter 17? Wtf is an ANOVA??????? oh. my. god. I'm done.
10:15AM
Okaaaaay THEN. It's a good thing I've spent so much of my college career on party buses because it looks like it's straight to the pole for me.
12:05PM
Wait, how have I already been in the library for two hours??? I haven't even moved from Facebook to Twitter! Well, I can't start studying on an empty stomach so I better grab some lunch.
1:31PM
Okay, now I'm well-fed and re-caffeinated, time to crank out a solid cram sesh. I wonder what grade I'll need on this test to make up for only attending 6 classes this semester.
*transforms into mathematician for the next 15 minutes*
1:46PM
Hmmmmm well if he gives us 6% extra credit and I score 101%, I might be able to get an A.
4:57PM
Dear God, I'm sorry that I finished that entire bottle of champagne last Thursday and stole my roommates greek yogurt, and I promise I will never skip a class again if you give me an A on this test.
7:15PM
OH YEA. Definitely got an A on that one, tequila shots on meeeeee. Tomorrow...... Still have two more tests tomorrow. Oh God.
11:40PM
Yup, this is it. This is how I die. Do you think if I just crawl under this desk and die right now anyone will even come looking for me? I've already seen four people cry in the last twenty minutes, it wouldn't be that weird if I just starting sobbing right now.
2:09AM
*Googles* how much do in-n-out employees get paid?
4:37AM
Time for beddddddddd. Gonna get a solid 2 and half hours tonight. Killing it.
Christmas Break
11:06AMWhat time is it? What dayis it? WHO CARES, IT'S CHRISTMAS BREAK YA'LL.
1:15PM
I wonder if my mom will bring me some pancakes. And my computer charger. And my dog.
4:26PM
Wait, is this season 5 or season 6???? NO. This can't be the last season. NOOOOOOOOOOO. *cries*
6:30PM
Two words: Dinner. Time. Two more words: MOM'S. COOKING.9:07PM
*refreshes Insta for the 3479283rd time*
11:36PM
Maybe I should read a book tomorrow. Or go to the gym. Or spend some time with my high school friends. LOL. Season 4, here I come!
