7 Feelings You Have During Midterm Week
Her Campus

You see, with it being midterm week here on campus, I am having a whirlwind of emotions running through me right now. Between pure excitement and pure terror, I'm not really sure if I'm enjoying this week.

With the way my school's great football schedule was created this semester, our homecoming week is the same week as midterms. So you can now understand how someone could be excited, yet so scared for a week like this one.

With this being my third go-around of midterms, I can only express all of the feelings I go through during this week.

1. Pure terror..

Not only will they make or break your grade, these exams often fall on the same day.

2. Sleep deprivation

The best part of midterms week is getting 14 hours of sleep... Over the span of a week.

3. Complete FOMO

While some people are out having loads of fun with their friends, you have to have a crazy night at the library, studying.

4. Mental breakdowns

I promise I'm not crying because something actually happened. I'm just crying because I'm going to fail all of my midterms this week.

5. Stress eating.... Everything and anything

I don't care if it's bad for me or if it's my roommates. I'm stress eating, and I don't care.


6. Regrets

I feel like just about every person will go through the feelings of regret once midterm exams roll around. Either regretting going out so often and procrastinating studying, or just regretting not trying as hard on assignments so the exam grades wouldn't matter. Or if you're like me, you regret all of those and binge watching Netflix shows the week before.

7. Mental breakdown #2

Trying to cope with sleep deprivation and the thoughts that your grades are going to tank can cause an unexplainable amount of stress crying.


Hopefully all the studying and late nights at the library will pay off.. But until then I will be experiencing all of these feelings (at least once, maybe twice.)

Good luck to everyone on midterms, because I know I surely need it!

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

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.
