College Students Thoughts While Studying For Finals

Finals Week by "Friends" and "Greys Anatomy"

Finals can be a very stressful and overwhelming time. As I head into my second experience of college finals, I thought it would be amusing to record the thoughts that are going through my head as this terrible time approaches. Here's to pulling all-nighters, drinking way too much coffee, studying for hours upon hours, wanting to pull your hair out and question the reason you went to college in the first place, the mental breakdowns, and the sleep deprivation that are coming soon. So, here's finals week told by two of my favorite shows, "Friends" and "Greys Anatomy".

1. The beginning of the end. Your professor is going over everything that you have learned this semester because it will ALL be on the final exam and you are low-key freaking out inside and want to just tell them to stop talking because you did not understand one word they just said.

2. When you are with your friends the Sunday before finals and you look at them and ask them how they are planning on preparing for tests and you all just sit around trying not to cry like...

3. Checking the current grade that you have in the class and calculating the exact percentage that you that you need on the final in order to pass the class and try to convince yourself that it's possible.

4. After studying and doing homework for 9 hours straight and you finally sit down on the floor of your room and can't decide what to do with yourself...

5. When all you can think about is exams and they ruin your mood, the energy, and even the most important meal of the day.

6. When you just decide to accept the failure and take the L but you still wanna be a good friend so you try to stay supportive to those who have more willpower than you.

7. Trying to do a quick recap on the major lessons learned in History this semester and realizing that you remember no specifics and all that comes to mind is...

8. Getting through one final, having 5 mins of relief and then moving on to worry about your next 8...

9. Pulling that final all-nighter of the semester and your friends are ready to sleep but you are in the zone and trying to spread the motivation.

10. Walking out of your last final like...


Don't stress too much. Time manage, figure out the best study method for you, do the best that you can, and remember that summer is right around the corner. You got this fam, I believe in you :)

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. 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.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
