Twelve Days of Christmas:

On the first day of finals, my teacher gave to me

A headache and a fat C.

On the second day of finals, my teacher gave to me

Two hours of sleep

And a headache and a fat C.

On the third day of finals, my teacher gave to me

Three failed exams,

Two hours of sleep,

And a headache and a fat C.

On the fourth day of finals, my teacher gave to me

Four extra pounds,

Three failed exams,

Two hours of sleep,

And a headache and a fat C.

On the fifth day of finals, my teacher gave to me

Five bucks in my account,

Four extra pounds,

Three failed exams,

Two hours of sleep,

And a headache and a fat C.

On the sixth day of finals, my teacher gave to me

…. Nothing. Finals are done. God bless.

It’s Beginning to Look a Lot Like Finals:

It’s beginning to look a lot like finals,

Everywhere you go.

Take a look in the library,

All around you you will see

The crying kids with drooping eyelids overflow

It beginning to look a lot like finals,

Everywhere you go.

But the cringiest sight to see

Is the letter that will be

On your transcript at home

A pair of leggings and coffee and hours of study

Is the life of the college student.

As and degrees and a life free of C’s

Is the hope of your college children

And all of them can hardly wait for their finals to end.

Sleigh Ride

Just hear those students studying

Stressing, worrying too

Come on it’s perfect weather

For a study date together with you

Outside the grades are falling

And sleep is calling yoo-hoo

Come on it’s perfect weather for a finals week together with you

Giddy up, giddy up, giddy up, let’s go

Let’s see what we know

We’re drowning in a bucketload of woe

Giddy up, giddy up, giddy up, it’s grand

Just see it firsthand

We’re riding along with a song

Of a glittering break we’ve planned.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week.
