Everyone can relate to this little green man during finals.

The End of the Semester As Told by the Baby Grinch

How the Grinch Stole Christmas is easily my favorite movie to watch during the holiday season. However, as the fall semester comes to an end, hardly anyone has the time to sit around and watch Christmas movies with finals lurking over our heads. Even though I probably won't be able to watch my favorite film until I'm home for winter break, I will be channeling my inner Grinch throughout the close of the semester.

1. When you realize how much material is going to be on the final exam.

OH, so it is cumulative.

2. When you're wishing there was extra credit available.

And hating yourself because you didn't try harder early on in the year.

3. When that one annoying try-hard in your class who says they've been studying for the final since Thanksgiving.

So glad for you...

4. When your parents are on your about grades.

They've told you a thousand times to "finish the semester strong..."

5. How you look the entire last two weeks of the semester.

Who has time to look good when there is so much work left to be done?

6. When it's almost the end and you can feel yourself slowing losing your mind.

The stress eating is in full swing.

7.You're so done that this is the face you make towards pretty much anything.


8. When it's all finally over.

Not leaving bed for a week.

Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week.
