Game Of Thrones Does College Finals

The World Of Westeros Isn't So Far Away From The World Of Finals On College Campuses

Apr 25, 2016

As students begin gearing up for finals, the world of college becomes more and more like the world of "Game of Thrones." Tensions are high and you can smell the stress in the spring air, it's finals time on college campuses and if you ask any of the Northerners what's going on they'll surely tell you, "finals are coming."

You will have to guard your spot in the library like its Winterfell in Season 3.

During finals not only do you live, breathe, and eat in the library, but you're also responsible for guarding your spot from desperate peers looking for that perfect cubby to review Chemistry notes in for six hours a day. Remember- a Sociology major always pays their debts.

You will have to watch as your friends go out without you.

There comes a time in every college students life when they must allow their friends to go out without them. When the time comes just remember- you can always drink at your desk.

You will have to do battle with your school's printers.

There's no such thing as a reliable printer in college- especially during finals. Make sure to print out your essays at least a day before it's due. No one wants to pull a Dornish terror scream in public at 8:30 in the morning.

You will be tempted to give up completely and walk into the flames of destiny.

Finals is a challenging time for all college students but do not give up. Get organized, get a snack and get your life together. The Khaleesi would be proud.

You will have to prove yourself to older, wiser TAs.

If they weren't know-it-alls they wouldn't be TAs. Just remember that when your struggling through finals your TAs will be there for some extra guidance.

You will eventually get through the Game of Thrones- I mean- finals.

Like all things (shoutout to 7 seasons of GoT), finals will end. As long as you keep your act together, study and never EVER trust Littlfinger, you will make it out alive and possibly do so in front of a dramatic explosion.

Finals are hard and medieval political intrigue is too, but with the right attitude and the right HBO subscription, you will survive.

Do whatever it takes to get through finals, but under no circumstances become a Joffery. No one likes a Joffery.

Things People Without A Typical 'Boy Name' or 'Girl Name' Know To Be True

All names should be "unisex names."

Tulane University

1259

There are tons of unisex names that are popular: Taylor, Alex, Bailey, etc. There are also numerous names that are used for both sexes, but they’re not seen as “unisex” yet. People are slowly becoming accustomed to the dual use of these names, but for the most part, in their minds they associate certain names with certain sexes. And that leaves those of us with these names in many awkward situations.

I'm an anthropology major, and I love every minute of it. I couldn't tell you why, but I guess there's just something about studying different lifestyles that absolutely fascinates me. But anthropology majors definitely have our weird sides, especially when you go to a school that is filled with mostly Business and Bio majors. But us weirdos definitely have a lot in common, specifically these 16 things.

14 Things The Extremely Pale Are Tired Of Hearing

I get it... I'm pale.

University of Vermont

2617

Everyone has insecurities, that's just a fact. You didn't ask to be born this way. You didn't ask to inherit the one trait no one else in your family has. And you definitely didn't ask to be this ghostly white. But as soon as you've learned to live with it for a while (less wrinkles later on in life, right? right???) someone has to ruin it for you. They have to flaunt they're perfectly tanned body from Spring Break and hold their sun-kissed skin against yours. But I've had enough... here are the things that perpetually pale individuals are tired of hearing.
