We all know college is rough but nothing is rougher than the last month before you finally get released to have some fun in the sun. When I need to relieve stress, I always turn to The Office for a well-needed laugh and no one relates it better than Jim Halpert himself. Here are some relatable Jim moments from The Office that help me feel like I'm not alone in my struggle.

Being so done weeks before you are actually done with classes

It's fine. I'm fine. I'm over it.

Staying up all night trying to finish that project, then trying to stay awake in class the next day

You haven't put in effort all semester, so now you pay the price.

Trying to participate in group assignments but being completely uninterested

You need to get a good peer review though!

Suddenly you have 5 papers, 3 projects, and 4 tests all in the same week that you definitely didn't see coming

The teacher brings out the final exam review guides and games and you don't recognize anything

When was this covered? Where are my notes? What is my life?

Eventually walking into the final and simply hoping for the best

Could you have studied more? Yes, but sometimes Taco Bell and Netflix are more important.

Then walking out, realizing you nailed it and are ready to take on summer break!

All the stress is over, and it is time to relax and enjoy some endless free time.

It is that time of year again. Christmastime. It is one of my favorite seasons for a myriad of reasons. Here are just a few reasons why I love Christmas. This list is in no order of importance.

1. The Christmas decorations

I am that person who will decorate directly after Thanksgiving is over. This year, my roommates and I put the tree up in our apartment before we even left for Thanksgiving break. It is a great stress reliever for me to just sit in my living room and work on the huge amount of work I have before the semester is over.

Mistakes are something we all make, no matter how old we get. Most of the time, the mistakes we made are little and sometimes due to something out of our control. Yet, there are mistakes that are bigger than others. Personally, I have mistakes that I wish I could go back and undo. Here they are:

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?
