It's the week we dread like no other. The one thing that separates us from glorious break is a week of essays, presentations, and tests. It is filled to the brim with stress and caffeine-fueled all-nighters. Naturally, the best way to explain this week of suffering is through gifs. Here are some occurrences of the best time of the school year, accompanied by Gossip Girl.
1. When you are majorly stressing about the final in your worst class and your friend tells you, "You will do great."
They are not fooling anyone. It is general knowledge that I can't pull an "A" out of thin air when I've barely passed the tests. No amount of studying can fix my mistakes. Go on without me. Save yourself.
2. When your prof's final study guide is nothing like the actual final.
I trusted you. You led me to believe I actually understood this course, and then you play me like this.
3. When you've been studying for hours and you still feel like you haven't accomplished anything.
Spending all day in the library with a book open in front of you counts as studying, right?
4. When you have to wake up early to take a final.
At this point, the only thing getting you out of bed is the serendipitous thought of summer. It's good to remember crying is perfectly acceptable when your alarm wakes you up.
5. When you realize how much you took syllabus week for granted.
Oh, the sweet memories of not having three tests, two essays, and a presentation due the same week.
6. Looking over a study guide and seeing how much information you missed in class.
You swear you listened intently in class, but now you realize you might as well have skipped every session. All of that information in one ear and out the other.
7. When you finish your last final, and you feel on top of the world.
Yes, I am that student that happy dances out of the classroom after taking my last final. Don't judge. Let me have my moment.
