One of the biggest things that got me through this trying time was somebody that I know I can always count on. They’ll never leave me; I can always come to them in a moment of need. No, I’m not referring to my best friend… well, they might be my best friend… I’m referring to sour patch kids. These little dudes always come in clutch for me. They know when I need a boost and they’re always there to give it to me. As I was buried in studying I realized that my situation can be comparable to that of a sour patch kid.

Professors Are Like Sour Patch Kids Sometimes

“I’m not going to try and trick you on this midterm, I promise. ”Cool, he cares.I’m going to study hard so I’m actually ready for this midterm. I go to get my midterm; every multiple choice question has choices A-F and E is always all of the above and F is always none of the above. The matching is one of those some may be used more than once or not at all deals.Thanks Professor, I’m glad you weren’t trying to throw any of us off our game here. He cares though because he graded on a curve and it saved our lives.

DO SOUR PATCH KIDS HAVE SOUR PATCH PARENTS? These are just a few of the questions that plague me when I’m exhausted and just don’t want to learn anymore. Never mind the fact that these are deep philosophical questions so this technically counts as productive studying, right?

Midterms Are Literally The Boring Paper-Like Cousin To Sour Patch Kids

Midterms get a bad reputation (and they probably should), but they can be sweet.It’s terrible to study for them, to take them, and sometimes to get the grade back on them… wait, where was I going with this?

Thankfully, I survived the week thanks to my sour then sweet little buddies, and like midterms week, they’re all gone.
