Finals Week Told By Amy Schumer

The things we do and the thoughts we have all during this awful survival mode

Finals Week Told By Amy Schumer

It’s hell week. The week where every teacher decides to assign final projects, presentations, and study guides longer than your term papers throughout the semester.

You have to relearn all the notes and previous tests you took for each class in the matter of one week or less! If you're not studying, having mental breakdowns every couple hours, and googling what jobs you can have after you fail out of college, then you don't truly have finals week. It’s true hell that we’ve all experienced even Amy Schumer.

When you thought you were done doing busy work for your 2 easy classes but the teacher decides to add a final presentation in addition to a final exam 2 weeks before classes are done.

You take time intervals at the library to give yourself a break from staring at your computer screen for more than 4 hours at a time but your brain is still fried.

The reason your backpack is so heavy is that of all the snacks you packed to have for when the stress hungry comes.

Winter break feels so close but you still have 5 days of constant projects and studying and stress and you just want to be home with your pets, homemade food, and no responsibilities.

You go to office hours every day for a different professor and they all tell you, that you need a perfect score on your final to keep up your already perfect grade and that you have the chance to do better.

You reach the next level to hell week where you’ve done everything you can do and it’s not going to get better so you just hit submit and hope for the best.

You realize for some classes you can get a D on the final and still get an A in the class

You get assigned a group project for the final and you’re paired with people who don’t do anything so you have to do all the work.

Then they all try to explain why they couldn’t meet or take 30 minutes to do one slide

You have to try to explain to your roommates why you’re taking a 30-minute nap at 5:30 pm before going back to the library and why you stress ate her peppermint Luna bars.

You tell yourself a 20-minute Netflix break watching FRIENDS will cheer you up but you have to restrain from watching more than 10 episodes that make you feel better about knowing nothing.

It’s the middle of hell week and you don’t know what day it is

Then you forget to turn in an assignment

When even the fashion majors are bumming it to class because life is just too much

Your professor says the final is cumulative, it’s the last day to study and you’re ready to give up

You decide to wing your last final so you can pack, clean and relax watching Netflix so when your family sees you, you don’t look sleep-, food-, and health-, and mentally-deprived.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays.

But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
