The End Of School Summed Up By 'The Princess Bride'

As the school year comes to an end, it seems that our mental stability does as well. It becomes a constant battle between stressing, nostalgia and anticipation. "The Princess Bride" best sums up the events that occur during the last few weeks before summer vacation.

1. How you spend the weekend of finals:

2. Questioning the effects of your sixth cup of coffee:

3. Seeing all the posts from friends who are already finished:


4. Filling out a teacher evaluation when you learned nothing but the professor was nice:

5. Following every one of your professor's dumb rules for the sake of your GPA:

6. When your professor says that the final page requirement is 10 when it clearly says 5 on the syllabus:

7. Taking on the responsibility of warning all high schoolers what college is actually about:

8. Finding out an exam is cumulative and there's no curve:

9. Presenting on an insanely broad topic in under ten minutes:

10. Justifying why your ten minute break became an hour and ten minutes on Pinterest:


11. Telling yourself that there is no reason to violate your bedtime even though you need to study:

12. When everyone gets lectured on how terrible the class average was for the last exam:

13. Keeping in mind that no multiple-choice question is not a trick question:

14. Taking an exam and not even knowing what the question is asking:

15. Finally having enough of that one person in discussion:

16. Wanting to be done before you even started filling in answers:

17. Everyone who isn't in school when you say college is hard:

18. Doing way better in a class than you originally thought:

19. Explaining why you can't have a social life at the moment:

20. Waking up after what was supposed to be a twenty-minute nap:

21. The only appropriate response to give someone who finished the year with a 4.0:

22. When both you and your roommate both get moody because your food source is depleted:

23. What the education system is really telling you:

24. Yet you're not ready to say goodbye when it's time to turn in your room key:

25. You keep getting really sentimental with your roommate but promise that they haven't seen the last of you:

26. In the end all you can do is accept that the year is over and wish everyone an eventful summer:

You're almost done. Stay strong.

And before you ask, yes I'm fine. No, I'm not mad. This is just my face, so take it or leave it! To those of you who have been #blessed with an RBF, you'll probably relate to these more than you'd like to:

What's up Asshat,

I've composed a list of things that I wish upon you, and they're harsh and cruel. These things are things that I wouldn't wish upon my worst of enemies, not even that Starbuck's barista who always screws up my order, not even him. You fall into a whole other category of hate. You surpass Starbucks barista. Congratulations, I'm actually a pretty nice person, making you worthy of every single bit of torture I wish upon you. What are these things I wish upon you you might ask?

Why Theater Kids Are the Greatest People Ever

Supportive and spontaneous human beings are the best.

Theater Kids

Throughout school, the theater department has always been my go-to place with go-to people when I need advice, a dance party, or just someone to listen to me vent.

You never know what's going to happen when you're dealing with theatre or what kind of characters you'll encounter. We have too much fun doing anything! One time in my senior year acting class, we spent an entire class period watching Bob's Burgers, and it was the greatest class period ever.
