Finals Week: Girls Edition

No one describes finals week better than Lena Dunham

Finals Week: Girls Edition

It's the most miserable time of the year: FINALS WEEK.

The only thing standing between you and quality time with your dog is the last week of class and a few exams that make you want to rip your hair out. Everyone's true colors come out during this time and more often than not, it's not pretty. People are sleeping in the library, outlets are a needle in a haystack, and your favorite spot at the coffee shop near campus has been stolen by some girl in a monogrammed hat. Lena Dunham can relate to our lives in more ways than one. Here's a glimpse of what finals week is like. Brought to you by the lovely cast of "Girls."

Your mom, dad or close relatives call you to wish you good luck on your finals, but your too stressed about studying to appreciate it.

They also ask how you're classes are going in general and when the answer isn't what they expected, they question your judgement.

Going to the library and finding a spot to sit is nearly impossible. You walk around like a lost puppy and everyone who has found a comfortable seat gives you passive aggressive looks that say, "No, I'm not getting up anytime soon."

Stress eating kicks into overdrive and the only thing that can stop it is sleeping or more studying.

Speaking of sleep, there is little to none of that and it leaves you looking/feeling like a pile of you know what.

Your professors keep reminding you that the exam is cumulative.

Your friends from home are trying to make plans with you for winter break.

While your studying someone asks "Aren't you going to miss this class??"

When this week of hell is finally over, you want to cry and fall asleep for the next month of brea,k and guess what? That's totally acceptable. But before you do that you should definitely celebrate.


Happy Finals Week!!

6 Signs You Are An English Major

There are various stereotypes about college students, most of which revolve around the concept of your major. Unfortunately, we often let stereotypes precede our own judgments, and we take what information is immediately available to us rather than forming our own opinions after considerable reflection. If I got a dollar for every time my friends have made a joke about my major I could pay my tuition. One stereotype on campus is the sensitive, overly critical and rigid English major. Here are six telltale signs you are one of them.

27 Things 'The Office' Has Taught Us

"The Office" is a mockumentary based on everyday office life featuring love triangles, silly pranks and everything in between. It can get pretty crazy for just an average day at the office.

When you were little, your parents probably told you television makes your brain rot so you wouldn't watch it for twelve straight hours. However, I feel we can learn some pretty valuable stuff from television shows. "The Office," while a comedy, has some pretty teachable moments thrown in there. You may not know how to react in a situation where a co-worker does something crazy (like put your office supplies in jello) but thanks to "The Office," now you'll have an idea how to behave ifsomething like that should happen.

Here are just a few of the things that religious Office watchers can expect to learn.

Being pre-med is quite a journey. It’s not easy juggling school work, extracurricular activities, volunteering, shadowing, research, and MCAT prep all at the same time. Ever heard of “pain is temporary, but GPA is forever?” Pre-meds don’t just embody that motto; we live and breathe it. Here are 10 symptoms you’re down with the pre-med student syndrome.

High School And College Sucked All Of The Fun Out Of Reading

Books were always about understanding for me, about learning the way someone else sees, about connection.

High School And College Sucked All Of The Fun Out Of Reading

I keep making this joke whenever the idea of books is brought up: "God, I wish I knew how to read." It runs parallel to another stupid phrase, as I watch my friends struggle through their calculus classes late at night in our floor lounge: "I hope this is the year that I learn to count." They're both truly idiotic expressions, but, when I consider the former, I sometimes wonder if there's some truth to it.

One Book Made Me Question Existence In Its Entirety

"The Stranger" by Albert Campus touches upon many heavy elements... but not in the way you expect. Although it touches upon the aspects of death and love, it also deals with a hidden philosophy similar to that of nihilism.

The story follows the short life events of Meursault, a Frenchman whose carelessness for his actions eventually ends him in jail and dependent on a jury of people to judge the ethicality of his decision and the punishment that he deserves. He eventually gets the death penalty and all throughout he is nonchalant and almost apathetic towards his situation. He finally snaps when the prison sends a priest to him to absolve him of his sins and to cajole him in confessing to the lord.
