They say that college is a marathon, not a sprint, meaning that you should implement a steady methodical plan in order to achieve academic success and ultimately, a satisfying future. However, college students are only human; we procrastinate, skip lectures and drown our sorrows in cheap alcohol, forever riding on a thrilling roller coaster of amazing highs and devastating lows.
When the end of the semester arrives, each class begins to wrap up at a frightening speed, throwing out assignments and examinations left and right. It's only natural to shut down and indulge in some R&R.
Here are seven movies to watch when the end is near.
