Finals Week (Shameless Edition)

Surviving finals week Gallagher style.

Finals Week (Shameless Edition)

With finals week rapidly approaching we are all feeling the stress and crunch to pull our grades out from the depths of dispair. So there is no better way to help get through finals than "Shameless" showing us the proper way to handle them.


1. Procrastination.

We all tell ourselves that we are going to start early and that we are going to get ahead, but in all reality all we want to do is put off studying and do other stuff, because at this point we are beyond over wanting to study.

2. We Start To Question What Makes Sense.

We've all been there. We are taking a math test and we have to put two plus two in a calculator just to make sure it is four. We begin questioning the facts we know and feel like nothing makes sense anymore.

3. We All Get Very Grumpy.

Finals week is full of stress and we can all get a little overwhelmed and say a few things we don't mean. We all are just trying to surivive and get through the worst week in college.

4. Cramming.

We flip through the pages of the exam trying to figure out what we know the answers to and then we get to the last page and realize how absolutely screwed we are. Nothing like wasting all those hours of studying and still not undertstanding anything.

6. To Cope With Doing Bad.

Finally the best part of it all, when eveything is said and done. Time to hit the bars and celebrate like a true Gallagher. Trust me, after finals we all deserve a little bit of reward.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

sisters

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.

If you’re anything like me, you love a good cup of coffee. My coffee always comes from Starbucks; I refuse to drink it from anywhere else. Over the years, it’s become one of my biggest addictions. So, if you are aware that you’re a Starbucks addict as well, or maybe you need to check to see if you’re an addict, here are seven ways to tell.

It can be overwhelming at times and it’s important to take a step a back and calmly think things over. Maybe gain some perspective. The following aren’t foolproof tips and may not apply to you, but I was able to find success with them (hope you do too!)
