The 14 Stages Of Finals Week
We Minored in Film

1. Shock.

Finals week is coming, and there is absolutely nothing we can do about it.

2. Numbness.

I'm just going to sit here for a while and not move.

3. Denial.

There must be some mistake. It can't be this soon. I have time to just watch some Netflix.

4.Emotional Outbursts.

*Cries for four hours*

5. Anger.

Whose freaking idea was it to have all major tests during one week?

6. Fear.

I can't do this. I can't do this. No matter what happens I'm going to fail. There is absolute no point in studying.

7. Disorganization.

Where's my highlighter? I think I lost my sanity. Crap, have you seen my notebook?

8. Bargaining.

Hey, so, uh... you want to share that review that you made?

9. Panic.

"Mom, this is terrible. I can't breathe, and I think my body might be shutting down."

10. Guilt.

UGH, why did I just watch three seasons of "Friends?"

11. Isolation.

Okay, it's time to buckle down. You can do this, you can do this.

12. Depression.

*Stares blankly into space*

13. Testing.

None of this was on the review! Okay, I know two of these words. When in doubt, "C" your way out.

14. Acceptance.

Well, pass or fail, at least it's over. Now I get to go home and explain to my family that I'm still single.

I am going to a rhyme without reason date function and I have looked at so many different rhyming words and I figured there need to be a new list of words. At these functions, there are usually at least two rockers and boxers and an umpteenth amount of dogs and frogs. I have come up with a list of creative and unique ideas for these functions.

If you like what you see, get a shopping cart going with these costumes.

Epic Creation Myths: Norse Origins Unveiled

What happened in the beginning, and how the heavens were set in motion.

The Norse Creation Myth

Now, I have the everlasting joy of explaining the Norse creation myth. To be honest, it can be a bit kooky, so talking about it is always fun. The entire cosmos is included in this creation myth, not just the earth but the sun and the moon as well. This will be a short retelling, a summary of the creation myth, somewhat like I did with Hermod's ride to Hel.

8tracks radio

We all scroll through the radio stations in the car every once in a while, whether its because we lost signal to our favorite one or we are just bored with the same ol' songs every day. You know when you're going through and you hear a song where you're just like "I forgot this existed!" and before you know it, you're singing every word? Yeah, me too. Like, 95% of the time. If you're like me and LOVE some good throwback music, here's a list of songs from every genre that have gotten lost in time, but never truly forgotten.
