Finals Week As Told By Ron Swanson

"I can do what I want." -Ron

Finals Week As Told By Ron Swanson
BDCwire

Finals week is upon me, though it may be weeks away from you. Ron Swanson is still crazy relatable no matter what context.

1. When you remember to eat all three meals in one day

Or even one meal, for that matter. I'm considering setting a timer on my phone to tell me to eat lunch and dinner.

2. When you are so overwhelmed but realize that breaking down shows that you are giving in to weakness

Conceal, don't feel, don't let it show.

3. When a professor asks what your favorite part of the semester was in their GE class

Nobody wants to be in a GE class. Why would we enjoy anything about it.

4. When you have to decode what a professor is trying to have you write for an essay prompt

Of course being a mental processor does not help when writing an essay in the matter of a final class period, but it gives you a chance to make of it what you want to.

5. When you have fallen ill but do not want to accept your fate

Ain't nobody got time for that.

6. When your love for meat and protein is strong

Vegan bacon. Why would you even think of such a thing. I need meat to give me energy for the day.

7. When you feel like you have done all the studying you can

I will tell myself when I know all that I am supposed to know.

8. When a friend presents you with a gift (preferably coffee)

Tears of joy from feeling loved are justifiable.

9. When you failed to notice that your study music has changed over the past few days

Although, sometimes nature sounds are better to study to than lyrical music.

10. When you realize how you were able to cope with a class you did not like all semester

Wanting to get a good grade in a class and then never having to take it again is actually a great way to work. Plus, you can tear apart the class and the professor in the class evaluation.

11. When you turn in your last final of the semester

It is finished. It is all turned in. It is done. The end.

12. When someone tells you that everything will be okay when, in fact, everything will not be okay

Don't you dare give me a hug if you don't understand the same pain I'm going through.

13. When all you want to do is eat food and study

Study sessions are wonderful, but lots of people can be a distraction.

14. When your professor says that the final period is not required

Not mandatory? Okay, I'll spend my time sleeping or studying for another final.

15. And, finally, when everything is done and you see the mess you've made

I believe the word I have written on my whiteboard at the end of everything is "DIE".

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?

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.
