5 Types Of Students At The Library During Finals Week

Ah, it is that time of year again. A time filled with holiday spirit, Christmas lights, and hot chocolate drinking fun.

That is, if you aren't a college student.

If you are a college student, the Christmas spirit probably hasn't hit you just yet. You are a little more focused on making it through these last two weeks alive.

Students get a big dose of anxiety, coffee drinks sell like crazy, and the library becomes the campus hot spot.

With students flocking to one general area, comes a great deal of people watching (in between my study sessions, of course, mom.)

Here are the five different types of people you are likely to see during finals week at the library:

1. The Vagabond

Coming to the library is nothing new for this student. In fact, they have been coming every day this semester. The library is their turf, and this time of year annoys the heck out of them. This student is probably sitting at an area with an angry look on their face. Why? Because you have invaded their territory. Thou shall not enter, and all that jazz. If you are student 2-5, the vagabond probably hates you.

2. The First Timer

What is the library? There is a coffee shop in here? Which floor is the quiet floor? After a semester of procrastination, this student has finally decided they want to pass their classes this semester. They haven't stepped foot in the library yet this year, or semester, and they are probably walking around aimlessly with a confused look on their face. Will they actually spend time studying? Probably not.

3. The Freshman

This student is probably frantically flipping through pages freaking out about finals. They are probably taking finals too seriously. They don't really know what to expect, and haven't yet developed adequate study skills. You will probably see them spread out around the library in groups. Don't worry kids, you will get through this.

4. The Over-Exaggerator

We get it, you have finals and projects due next week. Guess what? So do we. Tone it down a little, skipper.

5. The Procrastinator

We see you looking up pictures of cats, and watching YouTube videos. You aren't fooling anyone.

Which one are you?

Resting b***h face. Defined as a person, usually a girl, who naturally looks mean when her face is expressionless, without meaning to. Many of you suffer from this "condition." You are commonly asked what's wrong, when nothing is. What people don't know is that is just your facial expression. Here are some things they wish you knew.

On a level of 1-10 with 1 being chill and 10 being stressed the flip out, you could say I'm a 9. Worrying about the future, grades, GPA, work, assignments, and a lack of sleep and food will do it to ya.
