The Stages of Studying for Finals, as Told by Winnie the Pooh Characters

1. Cool, Calm and Collected

Owl


At this stage in the semester, you’ve been trying to pay a little bit more attention in class After partying from January to March, it’s time to buckle down and get your life together. You’ve made the index cards, study guides, and outlines, and you’re ready to go.

2. It’s Not Really That Bad

Pooh

Okay. By this point you, realize that you’re not as prepared as you thought you were, but it’s still not that bad. After creating all of those notes you know you’ve got some major studying to do. But you’ve got a plan. Nothing is as bad as it seems.

3. It Really is That Bad

Rabbit

You’re screwed and you know it. You don’t understand your notes. You’ve lost half of your index cards, and you’ve probably been wearing the same shirt for the past three days.

4. Depressed, Hating Life

Eeyore

By this time, you have probably completely given up on life. You hate yourself, your professors, your computer, and the large amounts of granola bars and coffee that you’ve consumed in the past week. You could honestly care less if you pass your finals or not.

5. Going into the Test

Piglet

Alright, not really. You really do want to pass and as you walk into the classroom to take your test, you’re terrified. You would rather be anywhere but there, staring into the eyes of your professor who you’ve maybe seen eight times this entire semester. Hope attendance doesn't factor in to you final grade.

6. Happy and Care-free

Tigger

You know that wonderful moment right after you’ve finished your all of your finals but you haven’t gotten your grades back yet, yea, you’re there and it’s great. You can binge watch Netflix, catch your flight or car ride home, or go out with all of friends to celebrate. For the next week you’ll experience the euphoria of not having to read or write anything. But beware of those random times where you wake up at 10:00 a.m. and forget that you don’t have class.

I think the hardest thing about going away to college is figuring out how to become an adult. Leaving a household where your parents took care of literally everything (thanks, Mom!) and suddenly becoming your own boss is overwhelming. I feel like I'm doing a pretty good job of being a grown-up, but once in awhile I do something that really makes me feel like I'm #adulting. Twenty-somethings know what I'm talking about.

I went to a small high school, like 120-people-in-my-graduating-class small. It definitely had some good and some bad, and if you also went to a small high school, I’m sure you’ll relate to the things that I went through.

1. If something happens, everyone knows about it

Who hooked up with whom at the party? Yeah, heard about that an hour after it happened. You failed a test? Sorry, saw on Twitter last period. Facebook fight or, God forbid, real fight? It was on half the class’ Snapchat story half an hour ago. No matter what you do, someone will know about it.

Chandler Bing

I'm assuming that we've all heard of the hit 90's TV series, Friends, right? Who hasn't? Admittedly, I had pretty low expectations when I first started binge watching the show on Netflix, but I quickly became addicted.

Without a doubt, Chandler Bing is the most relatable character, and there isn't an episode where I don't find myself thinking, Yup, Iam definitely the Chandler of my friend group.

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!
