It's a week long Christmas to all of those students who associate themselves with a Greek organization-- Greek Week. Yes, it is these two words that turn your normal, studious campus into a wild, raging jungle full of passionate people about those letters they proudly represent.

Other than Greek Week being a fun week full of bonding activities for you and your chapter, it turns the most innocent people into screaming heathens that chant their organization's name over and over... and over again.

And it's awesome.

Here is Greek Week, told by your favorite characters in The Office.

1. When you decide you're going to wing this event, and you find out other Greeks have been practicing for weeks.

2. When you see your friends from another chapter and try to act all tough:

3. When you win an event you didn't expect to win:

4. Trying to psych out the competition like:

5. When someone asks you if you are a lead in your Airband:

6. When people try to get in fights over events:

7. Being paranoid and thinking other chapters are spying on your Airband practices like this:

8. Celebrating the wins like:

9. When you lose the hot dog eating contest:

10. Acting like you care about class this week when you've gotten maybe five total hours of sleep:

11. That one dude that shows off in every event:

12. You trying to show off doing an event:

13. When you know that win or lose you love your chapter so much:

14. Trying to love all organizations that week, but remembering you're competitors:

15. When a stressful event is over:

16. When they are announcing the winners:

17. When the week ends:

18. But you realize you get to sleep and act like a normal person again:

Every college student knows and understands the struggle of forcing themselves to continue to care about school. Between the piles of homework, the hours of studying and the painfully long lectures, the desire to dropout is something that is constantly weighing on each and every one of us, but the glimmer of hope at the end of the tunnel helps to keep us motivated. While we are somehow managing to stay enrolled and (semi) alert, that does not mean that our inner-demons aren't telling us otherwise, and who is better to explain inner-demons than the beloved April Ludgate herself?
