15 Moods Of College Students During Finals Week, As Told By 'Parks And Rec'

It's that time of year again.....and no, unfortunately, I'm not talking about Christmas.

If you're currently a student in college, you're probably going through hell right about now because finals week is here, the moment we've all been dreading since midterms ended.

The stress of having to study for multiple exams while also trying to get done all those essays and projects for every class is overwhelming, but luckily for us, these scenes from "Parks and Recreation" describe exactly what we are feeling during this god-awful week:

1. Oh, this is bad. 

When you save all of your assignments until the last minute:

2. I'm not cranky

Mood after spending five hours staring at your blank google doc of the essay you can't figure out how to start.

3. I have no idea what I'm doing

Basically how we feel after turning in every single project and assignment.

4. And I'm always tired

*gets a whole three hours of sleep per night*

5. I'm dead

Before, during, and after finals:

6. I'll be fine

It's fine, we're fine.......right?

7. Everything hurts and I'm dying

Me too, Leslie.

8. I'm going to lose it!

Yup!

9. Nervous breakdown

Too. Many. Essays.

10. 100 years in hell

Are the words "college" and "hell" synonymous? Maybe so...

11. I'm going to type every word I know

Trying to meet the word count on an essay like:

12. This is a nightmare

Looking over all the work you did before turning it in:

13. I'm just gonna leave early and go home

An early winter break? Don't mind if I do!

14. Adulting

Gotta keep that GPA up.

15. Too much responsibility 

Us @ all finals in general.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
