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.

Everyone who is in college right now, or has ever been, knows the struggle of pulling in the strings at the last second. It seems impossible, and you have to do a LOT of things in order to assure your future for the next semester.

April Ludgate, historically, is a very annoyed person, and she doesn't hide it. Of all the times that I binged and re-binged "Parks and Rec," her attitude relates more and more to me.

The world is not always sunshine and rainbows, and you do not have to be, either.

Ask friends of mine to name a quality about me, and one a lot them will point out the fact that I am almost always smiling. I like to laugh and smile -- not to quote Buddy the Elf in April, but smiling is my favorite! It is probably my favorite go-to expression. However, what a lot of people do not see is that I have my down days. I have days when smiling and laughing is a real struggle, or when I have so much on my plate that going out of my way to behappy takes more effort than I have stored in me. Be it a symptom of college and growing up or a facet of life, I cannot always be content.
