6 Of The Most Ridiculous Click-Bait Articles You Will Ever See

1. "This Salad Quiz Will Reveal Who You Truly Are"

How on earth could the type of salad I or anyone else eats determine who I "truly" am? I'm pretty sure my deep hatred for croutons has nothing to do with my commitment issues.

2. "We Know How Tall You Are"

Is the first question on this quiz "how tall are you"? Because otherwise I highly doubt you know how tall I am. Also, what a commanding statement: "We Know How Tall You Are" -- are you writing this article from inside my house?

3. "Create A Subway Sandwich And We'll Guess Your Dream Job And Age"

This is just baffling to me. If you can seriously tell me what my dream job is based on my Subway order then I am truly amazed. I have no idea what my "dream job" is or what goals I should be setting once I graduate college so if you're telling me a $5 footlong is going to tell me how to live my life I will take it.

4. "Build A Salad and We'll Guess Your Age and Dream Job"

What is it with salads having all of the answers in life? And also why do all of these foods know what my dream job is?

5. "Which Sex Position You Should Try, Based on Your Ice Cream Order"

How? Why?

6. "Surprising Reasons Why You Should Never Ever Dump Old Pickle Juice Down The Drain"

Okay, this is too much. Why would anyone take the time out of their day to write an article solely about the preservation of old pickle juice?

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.

University of Vermont

Thanksgiving break is over and Christmas is just around the corner and that means, for most college students, one hellish thing — finals week. It's the one time of year in which the library becomes over populated and mental breakdowns are most frequent. There is no way to avoid it or a cure for the pain that it brings. All we can do is hunker down with our books, order some Dominos, and pray that it will all be over soon. Luckily, we are not alone in this suffering. To prove it, here are just a few of the many deranged thoughts that go through a college student's mind during finals week.

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.
