Every semester it's the same cycle: start with your nose to the grindstone and get straight A's, slowly start to fall behind in a few assignments but manage to keep your GPA up. You wind up with a C in every class but remind yourself that C's do get degrees and suddenly finals are right in front of you and you're completely out of steam. We all know that dreadful feeling. It's finals season and there's only one person that can really showcase what we're all feeling during this atrocious time: Frank Gallagher.
1. Sunday Night
When your anxiety sets in after you realize that finals are this week and you can't even remember your own name, what year it is or what school you go to.
2. Monday Morning
There's nothing like preparing for your exams with a steaming cup of anxiety and a spoonful of hopelessness.
3. Tuesday Night
At this rate, you're still cramming for your next couple of finals and can barely make sense of your notes, your professors are M.I.A. on their email and you can't decide whether to eat, study or sleep. Decisions, decisions.
4. Wednesday Afternoon
5. Thursday Evening
When you're so close to being done with finals and you know in your heart your GPA isn't going to budge, but you still have faith, regardless.
6. Friday after your last final
You've studied for countless hours, cracked open your $200 textbook that hasn't been looked at this entire semester and filled in all the bubbles on your Scantron. Now, it's time to relax.
7. Saturday
Congratulations, you made it. Go out there and shotgun a beer with Chad from Apple Pie Theta to celebrate your success... or your failure. Either way, you took your finals and survived, and that's all that matters.
For everybody taking their finals now, or soon, good luck and go kick some ass. I believe in you and so does Frank Gallagher.
You got this!
