It's hard to believe the end of the semester is coming up already. The work is probably starting to pile up by now and before you know it, it will be time for finals. I'm sure most of us aren't ready for this in our lives right now.

But no matter what phase of the end of semester blues you're in, there are a few things all college students can relate to at this point. Who better to explain this to us than Dance Moms?

You feel the inevitable existential crisis that come with all the stress.

It's going to happen at some point, just you wait.

You'd rather be doing anything else but school work.

Literally ANYTHING.

Your teachers think it's okay to give big assignments at the same time.

It's like they all have some kind of conspiracy that on the last week of April everything will be due at the same time!

You're probably broke at this point and begging your parents for money.

Your mom really doesn't want to hear that you spent all your money on food but at this point she can't justifiably cut you off.

You're totally detached from watching your life crumble in front of you.

You've just kind of accepted it and this point so all that's left to sit back and watch.

You try to have fun and ignore the fact that you're dying on the inside.

When you go out with your friends you're smiling but you're trying to hide the fact that you completely forgot to study for the big test tomorrow.

You contemplate dropping out multiple times.

You've probably already come up with your speech of how you're going to tell your parents, you just can't face their disappointment.

You dread getting back the grade for that big assignment.

More than likely you did it at the last second or put in minimal effort. There's no way you did well on this and you're already prepared to fail this class.

You're ecstatic when you get a good grade on that big assignment.

So you actually did really good on it and you're relieved that you don't have to explain to your parents why you failed...until the next one.

You feel the pressure of finals coming up.

You can't put it off any longer, finals are almost here and you actually have to start studying.

You tell yourself that you're going to survive somehow.

There are only a few weeks left. You can't give up at this point. Some way or another you're going to make it through this.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
