The Grinch Who Stole Finals

Nobody speaks my mind during finals week quite like the Grinch.

Finals are just around the corner and we all know what this means; being social isn't an option for most of us. I love Christmas so naturally I've been watching my all time favorite Christmas since before Thanksgiving. Not long ago I realized that the Grinch is my actual spirit animal when thinking all things finals week.

After a long day of studying:

When you overhear people say they aren't worried about their finals:

When you check your phone every five minutes to procrastinate:

Needing 10 plus snacks to make it through study sessions:

Realizing you rather lay around than go out when you have two days before your next exam:

But then you realize you have full conversations with yourself so maybe you better go out so people don't think you're crazy:

Waking up the following morning knowing you have to start studying again:

Having an emotional breakdown because of the smallest of things because you are mentally drained:

Trying to give yourself a pep talk pretending you have purpose before you head into your final:

Walking out of a final feeling somewhat successful:

After your exams are complete and you want to forget entirely about the last 2 weeks:

So that all that's left to think about is:

Keep plugging away! We're almost to the finish line!

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.
