We all know the stress of finals week is looming shortly in the distance and we would all rather be laying in bed watching Friends on Netflix. From research papers to cumulative exams to group presentations, we're just short of a mental breakdown. Luckily, there's a fictional character who seems to feel our pain pretty well.

When it's the weekend before finals and you decide it might be okay to go out for one last hurrah before the year ends

But then you wake up the next morning realizing it was a huge mistake because of all the work you have to do

So you frantically start stu(dying) like

But some people are being SO LOUD in the library and it's hard to focus

So the procrastination inevitably starts to hit because you would rather be doing anything else

But then you are overcome by the overwhelming stress as you realize you've barely gotten anything done

So you lock yourself in a quiet room and come home twelve hours later like

But forget about sleep - you have too much work to do. You may as well find a nap partner since that's the only form of sleep you'll be able to get this week

And your eating habits for the week become questionable to say the least

So you start to become irritable due to lack of sleep and a poor diet, and little things begin to tick you off

And everything else you have to do on top of studying becomes a huge deal

Basically, by the middle of the week you're just like

And your friends make fun of how high-strung you are over exams

But then they start to worry about your well-being

And they ask you why you didn't start studying earlier if you're stressing out this much

Finally, you succumb to the pressure of finals week and break down altogether

But then the week ends and you realize you've made it out alive

Now all that's left to do is begin the excruciating wait for final grades to be posted

Happy finals week, everyone!

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week.
