End Of The Semester Thoughts Told By Parks And Recreation

It's The End Of The Semester, And I Literally Have No Idea What I'm Doing

End Of The Semester Thoughts Told By Parks And Recreation
Wired

The end of the spring semester is rough. "Parks and Recreation" perfectly describes how we're all feeling.

1. When it's the last week of school and your professor is still "teaching" things.

We already know that this won't be on the exam and you're just rambling on. Just cancel class.

2. When you get to your 8 a.m. class after staying up all night and you have no idea what they're talking about.

I have no idea what you're saying, and honestly, I don't really care.

3. When someone asks you to go to the gym and work out during finals week.

Better than sitting in my room and crying over all I have to do, right?

4. When you get your exam grades back...and they are not what you thought they would be.

I studied for this exam for 6 hours straight... Really?

5. Your professor when they don't "allow" extra credit, but you're only .05 away from an A.

There's really nothing I can do? I'll sing a song in front of the class... Please.

6. When your friends ask you to go to dinner with them and you're broke, but they really want you to go.

Well, might as well enjoy it while I can.

7. When you get to the first question on your final exam.

Did we even learn this? Are you sure?

8. After you take your first exam that you thought you did well on, but nothing you read made any sense.

Nothing matters anymore.

9. When you're halfway through your exams and you're running off little to no sleep.

I don't know what day it is and I'm very, very confused. And tired.

10. When someone asks you what you're going to do with your major.

Don't ask me. I have no idea. Should I know? Yes. Do I have any idea? Absolutely not.

11. When you finish all of your exams and you finally get to go home.

See ya next semester, everyone.

Think of everything that you've heard about college... and completely forget it.

College is a crazy, beautiful, amazing whirlwind. It is highly popularized in television and movies, but not necessarily in the most accurate way. Yes, there's frats, dingy dorms, raging house parties—but there's also a lot that people fail to mention.

1. If you thought that you knew how to study, you're wrong.

All of your classes aren't taught every day, so professors aren't on your case constantly about reading and memorizing material. Once you get back that "questionable" first exam grade, you'll kick it into high gear and figure out what works for you

I've been a bleach blonde for over a year now, and let me tell you, it is a lifestyle. More hair appointments, longer showers, and special shampoo. But it is totally worth it!

1. Mentally preparing yourself to convince your hair dresser that white is the way to go.

2. Or the anxiety of what could go wrong by bleaching your hair at home.

3. You could either become a ginger

4. Or a pixie

5. The face you make in the mirror when you take off your towel to unveil the perfect white strands.

6. Taking a million selfies the day you bleached it, because you know your roots will be back in literally 2 days.

7. Having to get bangs or a big chop because your hair is so damaged.

8. Having orange highlights in between touch-ups.

9. Going out for a drink afterwards to debut your updated look.

Despite the struggles, you love your platinum blonde hair! You make sure Instagram knows it, too. You don't need a filter, because the color is flawless by itself!

Finals: just thinking about them gives you anxiety. Only two weeks separate you from summer, but they're the longest of the semester. There's a familiarity to this season, now that you have had so many testing cycles under your belt. But that doesn't quell the ever present stress to pass your finals and your classes. Even better, as a package deal during these wonderful weeks, you get to wake up early to study and you get to take exams that can begin anytime from 7 A.M. to 7 P.M. Now that we have established that this week is not fun, here are some super relatable moments that punctuate finals week.

I've been at this college thing for almost three and a half years, and while I thought that high school was truly the lowest point of my existence, I'm beginning to realize that it was a walk in the park. Like, I miss the days when the biggest white lie I told my parents was my made up excuse about being late for fourth period. These days, the white lies are a tad more complex, and as ashamed as I am to admit it, I've definitely told a few of these.
