How many all nighters have I pulled?

Finals Week Thoughts

'Tis the season of finals week. Tomorrow (Tuesday, December 12th) begins finals week for me. I have already turned in a final paper, and I am preparing for one of my biggest finals. Yes, finals week for some people is a stressful time, however, at the end, we get 3 weeks off. Here are just some thoughts that go through my head during finals week.

1. How much coffee did I have today?

I may or may not have at least one or two cups a day. So for me, coffee is important in finals week. Having that caffeine will help me stay awake as I am finishing up studying for an exam or finishing up that paper.

2. How much sleep have I received this week?

Leading up to finals week, sometimes you are up later than expecting writing papers, cramming for exams and so on. For me, I have been realizing I haven't been getting enough sleep this week however, I do know that once break begins, I can catch up on that much-needed sleep

3. How much vlogmas have I watched?

If you watch any vloggers on YouTube, you know one thing, Vlogmas. Vlogmas is when YouTubers who vlog, vlog every day until Christmas. It's exciting to watch vlogs and it's always a nice study break as you are studying.

4. How many days until Christmas?

You might be counting down the days until Christmas or maybe even have an advent calendar. Yes, we have 14 days until Christmas, not like I'm counting down or anything. But don't forget to focus on studying for finals and not worrying how many days until Christmas.

5. How many more days until I can go home?

You also might have that thought going through your head as well. How many finals do I have left and when can I go home? Just focus on studying, preparing and giving it your all and then you will realize that it's the day you are going home

These are just some thoughts that I have going through my head during finals week. To all of you, good luck on your finals. I know you will do well. Study hard and know that the hard work pays off.

I think the hardest thing about going away to college is figuring out how to become an adult. Leaving a household where your parents took care of literally everything (thanks, Mom!) and suddenly becoming your own boss is overwhelming. I feel like I'm doing a pretty good job of being a grown-up, but once in awhile I do something that really makes me feel like I'm #adulting. Twenty-somethings know what I'm talking about.

I went to a small high school, like 120-people-in-my-graduating-class small. It definitely had some good and some bad, and if you also went to a small high school, I’m sure you’ll relate to the things that I went through.

1. If something happens, everyone knows about it

Who hooked up with whom at the party? Yeah, heard about that an hour after it happened. You failed a test? Sorry, saw on Twitter last period. Facebook fight or, God forbid, real fight? It was on half the class’ Snapchat story half an hour ago. No matter what you do, someone will know about it.

Chandler Bing

I'm assuming that we've all heard of the hit 90's TV series, Friends, right? Who hasn't? Admittedly, I had pretty low expectations when I first started binge watching the show on Netflix, but I quickly became addicted.

Without a doubt, Chandler Bing is the most relatable character, and there isn't an episode where I don't find myself thinking, Yup, Iam definitely the Chandler of my friend group.

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!
