The worst f-word college students hate to hear... FINALS. Sadly, the time has come where we are consumed with final projects, final tests, final homework assignments, and final classes. We are consumed with sleep deprivation, anxiety and too many fast food runs and Starbuck coffees. We spend what feels like a semesters worth of hours in the library trying to learn everything from the beginning of the time.

So what's the bright side to all the stressful side effects of the end of the semester? Christmas break is literally your finish line. We are so close to that finish line, we could all break down and cry with joy. To get us through the semester, here are some things we can all relate on told by the cast of "Friends."

1. Coming back from Thanksgiving not remember anything from the week before

Let's be real, everything from the week prior to Thanksgiving break shouldn't be counted for. I mean we're already checked out.

2. Going through the week before finals telling when your OK when you know you're just kidding yourself

We're all drowning in last minute test, finals and projects. We're not fine!

3. Looking at your finals schedule, not knowing how you're going to study for all your exams

Figuring out how you're going to study ahead for finals has to be the most stressful, annoying thing to figure out during the last few weeks of finals.

4. Checking on your friends to make sure they're doing OK while studying

Check on your friends. They might need a saving grace from going insane.

5. When you realize you're procrastinated until the last minute before your final to study

We can't deny that we're all been at this point during finals.

6. What you've study vs. What is on the exam

Still trying to figure out how this is possible and why professor like to torture us with this madness.

7. The time between taking your final and waiting for your professor to put in your grade

It’s here; that time of year when college students turn into preschoolers again. We cry for our mothers, eat everything in sight, and whine when we don’t get our way. It’s finals, the dreaded time of the semester when we all realize we should have been paying attention in class instead of literally doing anything else but that. Everyone has to take them, and yes, unfortunately, they are inevitable. But just because they are here and inevitable does not mean they’re peaches and cream and full of rainbows. Surviving them is a must, and the following five phases are a reality for all majors from business to art, nursing to history.
