Alright kids, it's finals week. Yes I know we're all drowning in papers and exams and stress, and I know we all kind of want to drop out right now and pursue our luck as international internet moguls. But as we trek through this trying time, let us try to remember all the good things in life that we can experience as soon as this week of hell has finally come to an end. Let these things be motivation to push past this last week of tests, papers, tears, and all-nighters.
1. Puppies!
Dogs will always be there for you, no matter how hard it is to squeeze 10 pages out of a few readings you don't even remember. Dogs always believe that you are amazing, that you have done well, and they will always love you. Do it for the dogs.
2. Macaroni and Cheese
Mac n' Cheese, as I fondly call it, is the super food, the source of all life, the wonder, the happiness, the true Holy Grail. Tape a picture of this luscious, creamy food above your computer, it will guide your way through these trying times.
3. Girl Scout Cookies
The season of joy is upon us, so we should stock up now so that when we have been released from the hell we dwell in, we can lounge around and stuff our faces with them all day.
4. Netflix
Just think of all the shows and movies we can catch up on once finals are over. Days on end of television. Sitting down with boxes of cookies, bowls of mac n' cheese, and a firm belief in not moving for three days sounds like heaven, doesn't it?
5. Sleep
After all the sleep we've given up for finals, Spring Break is a chance to win that all back. Sleep for 15 hours straight. Curl up underneath ten blankets and hide from the world. Take a nap after eating, moving, or even sleeping. The possibilities are endless.
Hopefully this small list will help you all through finals week; there is a light at the end of the tunnel! A lazy, sleep-hazed light, but a light nonetheless. Just one more week! We can do it... maybe!
