The 14 Stages Of The Last Week Of Class
Friends

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.

1. When it's December 1 and you have seven things due, three exams, and haven't slept in three days.

You tell yourself everything is going to be ok.

2. So you stress.

And stress, and stress, until you can't stress anymore.

3. And cry.

The tears just flood over you and you can't help but sob. College is great, isn't it??

4. Then call your mom to cry some more.

She can't even console you at this point.

5. After the pep talk, you feel determined to get everything done.

"I got this!" is your go-to mantra.

6. But, now you're tired.

You will do anything if it means you can sleep for 20 minutes.

7. And really hungry.

I mean really, really, hungry.

8. Suddenly, it's 2 a.m. and you have only written three sentences and your paper is due in the morning.

Welp, looks like you're pulling another all-nighter.

9. You've made it to Friday... somehow.

The weekend could NOT have come soon enough.

10. Then Sunday hits and you find yourself back at the Lib.

Club Lib... not as lit as the actual bar.

11. So you cry some more.

"I can't do this anymore" is what you're telling yourself at this point.

12. But, you fight through the tears to get everything done because you're determined.

You start watching motivational videos online to try and cure your blues.

13. In the end, you feel on top of the world because you made it through the last week of class alive.

You're not sure how you did it. But, you did so you count this week as a win.

14. But, now it's finals week so good luck.

Send help because the cycle is repeating itself.

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.
