Finals Season As Told By 'The Office' Cast

Getting you through finals season with the help of The Office

Finals Season As Told By 'The Office' Cast
NBC

Finals week is here, and it is officially crunch time.

You know that one time you skipped class because you just were not feeling it? This is the week where every minute in those classroom seats starts to count for something, in my case about twenty percent of my grades. Remember the days you could exempt your middle school exams if you had a good enough class average?

Yeah, me too.

At least we have the cast of The Office here to humor us along the seemingly never-ending journey that is finals week.

1. Reading Day

Unfortunately, reading day gives us a whole day off classes to focus on studying for our finals. However, the reality is in Charleston, a nice trip to the beach or never leaving bed.

2. When you are about to start your first final and your professor hands them out without saying a word

I might be in college, but I still count on thorough instruction.

3. When the first three questions that you just skimmed look NOTHING like the study guide

Honestly, if I get a study guide from a professor in the first place, there is always that hope in the back of my mind that it will be the exam with minor differences.

4. When you are three finals deep, but you realize you still have two more between you and your summer.

We all know how this goes. Morale is low, but scores are about to be even lower if you don’t get your sh*t together.

5. Getting to your last final, looking around.

Everyone is in the same boat you are. Sure, there might be that one kid in each class that is still beaming with a desire to do well. The rest of us are here doing what it takes to get by.

6. Filling out your final name scantron on your last exam

Ok, seriously… the reason why half of the exams we have take as long as they do is because of having to bubble in each letter of our names. By exam four or five, I’ve truly had enough.

7. Walking out of your last final and reevaluating your study habits and general ambition to do well

We’ve all been there. Finals week comes with an endless supply of “maybe next times.”

8. Realizing finals are over, but now you have to return to your hometowns and the fun is over until next semester.

Don’t get me wrong, I cannot wait to be home. However, once you get used to life on campus, it makes it that much harder to leave… especially for three whole months.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
