It's here- the week before finals week.
Pre-week to finals week is 100x worse than actual finals week because you kinda feel like you're in Finding Nemo and you are Norman and your finals are Bruce.
Try not to panic...
Because pre-finals week means you have two weeks left, and then it's summer where you can relax or at least get a good night's rest.
But until then, you have to suffer through the week before finals week.
For those of you that are freshman, have had an easy college career or are actually taking college seriously for once, I have laid out what pre-finals week will most likely be like.
Monday:
It's the start of the week, you're feeling good. You'll probably lay out the entirety of your study plans and make sure you stick to them to a T.
Tuesday:
You already feel behind because you thought you penciled in enough time to eat dinner with Suzy, get to the gym for a light workout, and study for three classes at the same time, but you won't fret because you know you can simply get on track again.
Wednesday:
You haven't slept for more than three hours a night because your professor threw an assignment at you that's due the day of your final. Oh, and you're most likely using the heck out of your baseball caps and dry shampoo because let's face it, you haven't had time to properly shower.
Thursday:
Holy crap. How did it become Thursday already?! You don't know- but you do know that Class A and C finals have to get more study time than Class B, D and E finals because Class A and C finals are harder even though Class B, D and E finals are first.
Friday:
Going out? Nope. You don't have time, you want to relax, but it's just too much risk that if you do you will lose all that precious study time, or you could maybe sleep...
Saturday:
Wow you're hungover. Your friends convinced you to go out to relieve some stress because you were starting to find some gray hairs, but now all you want to do is eat a burger, watch Netflix/nap, and not do anything for the day. Somehow, though, you'll find motivation to get to the library.
Sunday:
This is it. And this day can go either way- you will either pull an all-nighter and study until your brain is full.
Or you'll accept the fact that you just went through Hell Week, and there is nothing more you can do about it.
Best of luck to all of you that are about to go through pre-finals week, I'll be praying for you, and congratulations to all the graduating seniors- you made it!
