Halfway Through Finals Week As Told By Gilmore Girls
New Statesman

It's the most wonderful time of year... oh wait it's FINALS TIME. That time of year is upon us again. Finals Week. It's the time of year where you talk about how much you don't want to take your finals more than you actually prepare for them. We've all struggled through Finals Week, yet somehow it never gets easier. Just remember that once you're finally done with your finals you'll be able to curl up in bed and watch the Gilmore Girls' A Year in the Life like you've been waiting for or whatever other Netflix binges you have waiting for you.

You've taken at least one final now and can't believe you still have more left.

You stayed up until 3 last night and have an 8:30 am final.


Your friend says she's been in the library for 2 days straight.


You've been in this class for a semester and forgot everything you've ever learned.


Did you even go to sleep last night?


The professor comments on how tired all of you look.


Your friends see you breaking down at random moments.


Another final done!


And then you remember you still have 2 more finals.


You begin questioning why you went to college again.


Time to go to sleep on your books and wing it tomorrow, crossing your fingers those family smarts will kick in.


You don't even know how much coffee you've had today anymore.


You really thought you knew what would be on the test and then BAM, surprise question about something the professor barely mentioned.


You take that last final and realize you have the next few weeks off, free of any academic responsibilities.


Now you're done, so go home and spend time answering your family's questions about what you learned this semester and soon finals won't seem so bad. Don't worry, you got this!

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
