The 11 Stages Of An All-Nighter As Told By 'The Office'

All-nighters. We have all been there and they suck. There are however 11 stages to each and every all-nighter. No one illustrates this better than the crew over at Dunder Mifflin Paper Company.

1. Oh god I forgot I have a paper due tomorrow. It's OK, I can get it done; I'll just have to stay up all night. It's fine though, really.

2. Wow, I don't know half of the words in this prompt. I wish I had actually gone to class more. Maybe then this would make sense.


3. What are you saying? You can do this! You're smart and beautiful, and people love you.

4. I am a genius; I'll go to the Internet to find some scholarly journals on my topic! *pulls up Wikipedia pages relevant to topic*

5. Wow, I'm kind of burnt out after all that work. Maybe some exercise will clear my mind.

6. Wow look at that. I'm almost halfway done and its only 2:30 a.m. Go me!

7. I deserve a break, plus it'll be the perfect time for a snack. What do I want? Hm, definitely something healthy so I can keep working on this paper but what should I — oh is that ice cream? Ice cream sounds good right now. You know what, I've worked hard; I deserve some ice cream.

8. Alright, now back to work. Let's just see where I left off. Wait, what the hell have I been writing? I don't think a single one of these sentences actually makes sense.

9. *Checks watch* Oh god it's already 4! Oh well, I just have to finish this now, who cares if it makes no sense. I know, I'll make sure to some key vocabulary words so when the professors inevitably skims my paper, they'll pop out. I mean she's not actually going to read, like, 40 of these is she?

10. OK, I just need about one more page, but I'm all out of information to write about. Maybe if I just start writing something will come to me.

11. Wow that is a beautiful sunrise. *checks watch* 7:45. Perfect, just enough time to print this off, go to class and turn it in. Wait, don't I have another paper due tomorrow for my other class? *checks planner* Oh joy, I do. Goodbye, library I'll see you in a few hours.

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.
