Finals Week As Told By the Men of New Girl

With the semester finally ending, we all have one bridge to cross before our long-awaited winter break: Finals Week. With 5 exams in 2 days, and multiple 20-page papers due, we've all been close to throwing our textbooks out the window and pulling our hair out. Here's how most of our weeks are going, according to the men of New Girl.


1. When you ask your professor how much of your notes do you need to know for the exam


2. When you've been "studying" for 8 hours and your friends ask you what you've gotten done


3. When you ask your friend to read over your paper to see if it's good enough


4. When it's Friday night and even though you need to study, you encourage your friends to go out



5. When it's hour 36 of studying and Taylor Swift is on repeat because she even has relatable lyrics for finals week


6. When you decide that passing exams is too much of a hassle so you'll just apply for jobs based solely on looks and personality


7. When its midnight, you've been in the library since 10am, you're becoming delirious and think that everyone is out to get you


8. When you complain to your parents about finals on the phone and they claim that "you'll do great"


9. When you think you've gotten a lot done, then look at the study guide and realize you've only gone over one topic so far


10. When your professors tell you the exam is going to be cumulative and 50% of your grade


And hopefully...

11. When you walk out of an exam that you thought you'd fail but actually feel like you did really well on it

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.

winter

Thanksgiving break is over and Christmas is just around the corner and that means, for most college students, one hellish thing — finals week.

To prove it, here are just a few of the many deranged thoughts that go through a college student's mind during finals week.

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.
