Finals Week as Told by Tina Belcher

Finals Week as Told by Tina Belcher
huffpost.com

Finals week is a stressful time for everyone, professors and students alike. It's a time where we have to apply every little thing we learned (or read) into five or six tests that will determine whether or not we have to retake that stupid chemistry class again next semester. Just as we have trouble with finals week, Tina Belcher has trouble with life. Here is finals week as told by Tina...

1. Walking into your first final thinking you're going to kill it.

The first final is arguably the one that eithers goes the best or the worst. Typically, that's the one that I think I'm going to slay. Whether you're ready or not, I think we can all say that once we walk into the first final, we know it's the beginning of something deeper than the first final. It's the beginning of us getting ready to either kick ass or get our asses kicked.

2. When your study group actually accomplishes something.

When I'm by myself trying to study, I very rarely get anything done. When I'm with other people, I'm more likely to not get anything done. However, during finals week everyone bands together and makes an unspoken pact to not let each other fail.

3. When you realize only day one of the week is over.

After a long day of testing, you finally get to go home and relax because it's all over...oh wait, you have to study for another two finals tomorrow. So much for that thing called sleep.

4. When you're studying and get distracted.

Tina gets distracted by Jimmy Jr.'s butt, but I get distracted by Netflix, food, sleep...pretty much anything under the sun that's not my homework or studying. We all have our downfalls, and we certainly all have our Jimmy Jr. butts.

5. When you question every answer choice's validity.

Some professors like to put funny answers on tests just as a joke, but at a certain point during finals week, my brain processes these answers as actual possibilities. I think by day three, my brain has just given up on me and will consider any ridiculous answer for a question.

6. When you realize even if you get 100% on the final, you're still a few points away from an A and need to sweet talk the professor.

If you haven't tried to suck up to the professor a little bit in order to get ahead in class, you're lying. Whether or not you've realized it, you've probably done it. While this is unethical, it's extremely common. "What do you mean you can't bump my C to an A?"

7. When you're finally done with finals.

Nothing can beat the feeling of walking out of your last final and knowing you're free for a whole summer. At this point, you aren't even thinking about how you did or what grades you might have gotten, but rather the warm feeling of your bed. Nothing can bring you down.

8. When you realize you got an A in the class you were worried about.

You don't have to retake chemistry! Thanks to those study groups, all night-ers and cups of coffee, you landed an A in the course. Finally you can enjoy your summer free of worries.

Good luck to everyone taking finals this week! When in doubt, do what Tina would do!

I've lived a whole 21 years with an RBF (Resting Bitch Face), so naturally, I go through most of these struggles on a daily basis.

And before you ask, yes I'm fine. No, I'm not mad. This is just my face, so take it or leave it! To those of you who have been #blessed with an RBF, you'll probably relate to these more than you'd like to:

What's up Asshat,

I've composed a list of things that I wish upon you, and they're harsh and cruel. These things are things that I wouldn't wish upon my worst of enemies, not even that Starbuck's barista who always screws up my order, not even him. You fall into a whole other category of hate. You surpass Starbucks barista. Congratulations, I'm actually a pretty nice person, making you worthy of every single bit of torture I wish upon you. What are these things I wish upon you you might ask?

Why Theater Kids Are the Greatest People Ever

Supportive and spontaneous human beings are the best.

Theater Kids

Throughout school, the theater department has always been my go-to place with go-to people when I need advice, a dance party, or just someone to listen to me vent.

You never know what's going to happen when you're dealing with theatre or what kind of characters you'll encounter. We have too much fun doing anything! One time in my senior year acting class, we spent an entire class period watching Bob's Burgers, and it was the greatest class period ever.
