After a quiet break relaxing at home, eating home cooked meals and seeing friends from high school, college students return back to their universities for the three worst weeks of the semester. The few weeks leading up to finals is a nonstop moving belt of papers, exams, group meetings, and projects — all culminating in one treacherous week.
There is, unfortunately, no way to avoid this terrible time, and Kris Jenner knows exactly how we feel:
1. When family members ask if you're ready for finals when you go back:
Yes! I'm so so so excited to take that cumulative Micro final!!! Gonna be a blast!
2. Your reaction when your professors say you can't raise your grade in 2 weeks:
Can't change this B- to an A-? Is that a challenge?
3. Looking at Canvas and seeing just how much work you actually have to do:
You're just sitting there on your bed in denial from looking at the Canvas calendar. You believe there's simply no way to get everything done in such a short amount of time. College professors definitely do this sabotage on purpose...
4. So the first thing you do is start to stress eat...
I need a large cheese from Pizza X, BuffaLouie's boneless BBQ wings, and a fat box of Baked stat.
5. ...then just try to ignore your responsibilities for as long as possible...:
Ignorance is bliss, amiright?
6. ...and contemplate dropping out of school to pursue other goals elsewhere...:
Maybe Accounting just isn't the path for me? Maybe I need something more creative?
7. Eventually, you find yourself sitting in a huge auditorium faced with a final exam:
The faster I get this done, the earlier I can leave...
8. And you begin second guessing everything you've learned during the semester...:
"When you feel like something is wrong, it's usually wrong." - Kris Jenner. But then what if I feel like everything is wrong...
9. Finally, you walk out and someone says "that final was the easiest test I've ever taken!!":
Don't be that person. Just don't.
10. But then you realize you just survived and you're officially on break for a month:
Now you are free to do whatever your heart pleases for an entire month. No more 20 minute walks across campus to class, Canvas grade update emails, or Gresh food until January 8th! Happy finals!
