Finals are one of the more miserable times in a college student's academic career. If your week (or month) has been anywhere near as bad as mine, you will be able to relate to some of these instances, as told by Arrested Development's Tobias Funke.


1. When the reality of how much you have to do starts to sink in, and you can’t handle it.



2. When you read the instructions for your assignments and essays.



3. When you start talking about everything you have to do in the next week.



4. When you have to work with a group for your final project.



5. When you decide that reasoning with your group project teammates is pointless, and you are just going to do your portion separately.



6. When you are studying with your friends and you can't seem to focus or be productive.



7. When you check off the first (of many) boxes on your to-do list.



8. When you need to ask your friend to send you their study guide.



9. When you run into a friend that is in the same boat, or worse.



10. When you don't know if any of the torture is worth it.



11. When you take a leap of faith, and study what you think will be on the exam.



12. When you calculate the grade you need to get on the final to do well in the class.



13. When you are trying to turn in an assignment quickly at the beginning of class, and then sneak out unnoticed so that you can get more study time.



14. When your professor gives you a crappy attendance grade.



15. When you need to get out of bed and start getting things done, but all you can do is lay there like this.



16. When you just pulled an all nighter to study, and you realize that it is already light out.



17. When you experience this exact moment.



18. When you get handed the exam booklet.



19. When you are taking an exam and trying to remember what you studied, but it won't come to you.



20. When you literally can not answer the first question on the exam and everyone around you is finishing.



21. When you are trying to fill in space in an exam ‘blue book’.



22. When you leave an exam, and feel like you failed, but know there's nothing you can do to fix it now.



23. When all's said and done, no matter how hard you worked, finals kicked your ass and probably took a year or two off your life.

Dear Mom,

You took care of me and my brothers our entire lives and you still continue to! I will not be able to truly grasp all of the hard work that you put into this family until I create my own one day. But, I know that there are plenty of times I forgot to give you a simple thank you or an appreciative smile. I thank you for everything that you have done for me and will continue to do for me. Here are some examples of those times where you had my back and I forgot to pat your back for saving me:

College is hard. As people ages 18-22, we’re just trying to figure out what we’re doing with our lives, our careers, our eating habits, exercise routines, sleep patterns, and other necessities for adult life. We definitely don’t take proper care of ourselves; it’s basically impossible when we have essays, tests and readings due and somehow we’re supposed to eat right, exercise and sleep. We’re doomed to get sick. I have zero experience in science but when I get sick there are certain things I do to make myself better.

Now that it seems “talking” is the new way to date, and will stay that way until another idiotic term is used to describe the people who can’t settle down and just date someone, I feel as if it’s time to go over the unwritten rules of “talking.”

Rule 1. Having feeling without feeling.
