The End of the Semester: As Told by Dr. Miranda Bailey

The End of the Semester: As Told by Dr. Miranda Bailey

The end is near and we students are facing the most unnecessary and unavoidable pressure of our college careers... the end of the semester. And who knows stress better than our favorite primetime surgeon Miranda Bailey. Thankfully Grey's Anatomy has gifted us this quirky, big-hearted doc to fully illustrate the anguish inflicted upon us at this ever so stressful time. These are our greatest end of the semester challenges as told through Dr. Bailey.

We have unexplained, uncontrollable emotions and you really can't blame us.

Honestly? It is probably because you go to class and have to deal with unnecessary questions from classmates and a constant influx of last minute papers from professors.

But really, if you ask one more irrelevant question I will implode.

You begin cutting corners. Netflix is a thing of the past, makeup is a luxury, and "showering" is the act of applying dry shampoo and glade air freshener to the entire body.

You begin to question how every member of your group project team is still alive.

But really...

There are moments when you can't BELIEVE you are still functioning.

But after that fifth cup of coffee you are a force to be reckoned with.

And soon after your friends have to deal with the unwarranted melt downs.

And once you are at the near end of the road all you can say is

Because when it is over, nothing else matters besides sleep, food and tequila.

lots and lots of tequila.

Thank you for helping us explain our end of the semester stress roller coaster, Bailey. May the odds be ever in our favor.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week. For some students, it's their first time in the library all semester, maybe ever. Others have slaved away many nights under the fluorescent lights, and are slightly annoyed to find their study space being invaded by amateurs. While these newbies wander aimlessly around the first floor, hopelessly trying to find a table, the OGs of the library are already on the third floor long tables deep into their studies. Here is a few signs that you may live in the library, whether you'd like to admit it or not.
