10 Stages of Stressing Over Exams

School is almost over so you know what that means, final exams are coming. That means you have to start studying, and you are going to be in a ton of stress. Stress on getting a good grade and stress on knowing all the material.

It will be constant stress.

Here are the levels of stress that you may go through during exam time.

1. Two week before the exam

Your not that stressed, you have plenty of time to study and get all of your ducks in a row. This is where you start getting your things together, like flashcard and getting your study guide ready to study.

2. A week and a half till the exam

This point you are a little stressed. You only have a week and a half left. This is when you need to buckle down and really start to study.



3. A week till the exam

You are almost 100 stressed. You feel like you will not know anything at all on the test. You start to stay up till 2 in the morning and make sure you know everything that is on the test.



4.Three days till the exam

You are 98 stressed at this time. You are worried you will not do well or you will ace the exam. You need to ace the exam to get an A in the class. You will either do well on the exam or you will not do so well on the exam.



5.The day before the exam

You are 100 percent stressed, but not quite there yet. You still have a lot of studying to do before the big day. You pull an all nighter not just staying up till 2 in the morning.


6.The morning of the exam

This is the point you are still 100 percent stressed. You get your last minute studying in before you go into the classroom.


7.Five minutes till the exam

You are still 100 percent stressed. This is when you get your pencils, erasers, paper, and calculator, if you need one ready to start the exam.


8.The teacher has entered the room

The teacher is starting to hand out the exam and you are a little stressed because of the teacher just handed out the test, and you write your name and date on the top of the paper, then you start the final exam.




9. Your almost done with the exam

You are not that stressed anymore because you know everything that is on the test. You feel really solid on the work that you have done on the exam. You turn it into the teacher and you feel like you did really well on it.



10. Just after the exam

You are 100 percent stressed again because you want to see your grade and it wont be up online till later that day or the next day. You know get worried that you did not do so well on the exam.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
