Christmas is on the brain during the month of December, not finals! How do you expect me to study?

Are you really a college student if you don't stay up all night studying in your pajamas?

1. You get there and immediately look for a place to sit and all the tables are full.

2. You finally find a place to sit, and you look at your assignment.

3. Are you really a college student if you don't stay up all night studying in your pajamas?

4. When someone walks in wearing normal clothes and you're in your pajamas.

5. When random people come up to you and ask you to take their surveys.

6. There's always this really loud group of people in the corner who are clearly not studying.

7. I think I need a study break!

8. When your friend isn't done studying, but you want to leave.

9. When you send in your assignment one minute before it's due.

10. Then you realize you forgot an assignment that's due tomorrow.
