Finals Week as Told by the cast of Gilmore Girls

Stars Hollow covers finals week.

Finals Week as Told by the cast of Gilmore Girls
cosmopolitan

Finals are just around the corner since Thanksgiving break is coming to a close. From last minute papers, to all night study sessions in the library; it looks like this next few weeks are going to be anything but fun. I wonder how they would handle finals week in Stars Hollow?

1. Caffeine please!

Caffeine becomes your best friend once you enter college. And trust me you will need it for those late night study sessions and that last minute research paper you have due.

2. Tolerance for stupid questions are at an all time low.


During these weeks you don't have time for brainless questions. Sure you would love to go to the bar for $2 drinks but you simply just don't have the time.


3. Beauty goes out the window.


That extra hour of prepping in the morning goes to printing copies of your paper or reviewing those flashcards. Say goodbye to straightening your hair or applying makeup.

4. Sleep deprivation is a thing.


You become a little delirious and not sure what emotions you convey. You just want your bed but you know you must study.

5. Trying to avoid all social gatherings.


You want to stay in your room and study but your phone constantly gets blown up saying how there's a huge end of the semester party. So you go...

6. Trying to bargain for extra credit with a professor


Trying to be the teacher's pet last minute to bump that 65 average to a 70. Because after all C's get degrees.

7. Professors get real


Professor's tell it as it is. They pass out the study guide and send you on your way. Your grade is all on you.

8. Knowing Christmas break is around the corner


Just think Christmas break is literally right around the corner, if that's not motivation I don't know what is.


Good luck on finals everyone!

The 5 Painfully True Stages Of Camping Out At The Library

For those long nights that turn into mornings when the struggle is real.

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.

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.

The Great Christmas Movie Debate

"A Christmas Story" is the star on top of the tree.

The Great Christmas Movie Debate
Mental Floss

One staple of the Christmas season is sitting around the television watching a Christmas movie with family and friends. But of the seemingly hundreds of movies, which one is the star on the tree? Some share stories of Santa to children ("Santa Claus Is Coming to Town"), others want to spread the Christmas joy to adults ("It's a Wonderful Life"), and a select few are made to get laughs ("Elf"). All good movies, but merely ornaments on the Christmas tree of the best movies. What tops the tree is a movie that bridges the gap between these three movies, and makes it a great watch for anyone who chooses to watch it. Enter the timeless Christmas classic, "A Christmas Story." Created in 1983, this movie holds the tradition of capturing both young and old eyes for 24 straight hours on its Christmas Day marathon. It gets the most coverage out of all holiday movies, but the sheer amount of times it's on television does not make it the greatest. Why is it,
then? A Christmas Story does not try to tell the tale of a Christmas miracle or use Christmas magic to move the story. What it does do though is tell the real story of Christmas. It is relatable and brings out the unmatched excitement of children on Christmas in everyone who watches. Every one becomes a child again when they watch "A Christmas Story."
