How You're Feeling During Finals Week, By New Girl
Channel4

As we all know, finals week and the weeks leading up to it can be quite stressful. When we've got two three-hour finals on the same day, an eight-page paper due the next, and that voice in the back of our heads trying to convince us to drop out and become strippers, nothing seems to help un-stress us.

To give you a little bit of a laugh and brighten your day before it goes to shit (I know, we're hoping your day won't go to shit but let's face it, it normally does) here are 15 New Girl gifs describing what it's like to be a college student in 2016 during finals week.

When you've been in the library studying for six hours straight and you don't feel any better about the exam you have tomorrow. Sorry, roommates, but please leave me to wallow in my self pity alone with T Swift.

It's Thursday night and you've got a big exam tomorrow but you're friends want you to go out with them instead of studying. Of course, you know you should stay in and study but, eh, you're just really bad at making *good* decisions.

You to your professor about your uncontrollable laziness, lack of motivation, and inability to be anything but tired. It's just who you are. Sorry, Prof, but you're just gonna have to deal with it.

And the lack of sleep during finals week is really messing with my flow.

On your way to the library after you rolled out of bed without bothering to shower or brush your hair and there are couples everywhere. All smiley and lovey. Come on, people, it's finals week it's impossible to be as happy as you two are!

When your professor tells you that you have your final at 8am on Saturday morning... um, no thanks.

When you finally come out of the library after hours of studying and the only thing you ate that day was a granola bar as a sad excuse for breakfast. Let's just say you dragged your friend to the main dining room so fast that you might've dislocated their shoulder.

*New Girl* reruns are on all day, you know that you have to watch that. Even if you have that exam for the class you hate tomorrow. If I have my textbook open in front of me that counts as studying, right?

You at your friend when they start complaining that they have an 89% in one of their classes while your hanging on with around 70% in most of yours. I mean, as the saying goes, Cs get degrees.

Reading through old notes and not having even the slightest clue as to what you were trying to say. Could I borrow your notes, pretty please? Apparently, I wasn't listening in class like at all.

When you are in the silent part of the library and you realize that you don't know shit and your final is in an hour. Is that stripper thing still an option?

It's 10pm and you finally find some inspiration for your eight page essay thats due at midnight. You got this.

You and your friends after your last final. "Did you fail it?" "Yeah, yeah me too." At least we all failed together, right? And it's finally break!

But, when your alone all you can think about is how disappointed your parents will be when the find out you failed and how you're never going to get a job after college with grades like this. Life is such a struggle these days.

And then a few weeks later you check your grades online and see that your professor curved it, big time. Bye, Bye D. Hello high C!

Happy finals week to all you struggling, tired, and hungry college students out there!

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.
