Well, it's the end of the semester, that time when the library is packed with students cramming for their finals and rushing to get those final papers and projects finished.

That time when coffee is the only food group in people's diets and are terrified of whether or not their GPAs are going to rise or drop because of these exams. Luckily, our friends over at Camp Wawanakwa understand the struggles we face when it comes to the end of the semester blues, and they're going to show you.

Waking up during the last two weeks of the semester.

You were alright with getting up early for the entirety of the semester but at this point, you just want to be in a permanent coma.

When you need to be studying or finishing a paper but all you want to do is take a nap.


Plus you'll be willing to use the ever so famous excuse, "but I was so busy this semester and I still have so much work to do! I deserve a nap!"

When you realize it's already midnight and you haven't started anything yet.

Just keep distracting yourself from your work by doing errands and watching Netflix. It's just going to make you more irritable and stressed out in the long run.

When you get your first final and you realize you don't know anything.

Shortly before getting the final exam: "I got this! I've been studying so hard for the last five nights, I'm so going to ace this final!"

After reading the first question on the exam: "...Did they teach us that?"

And you contemplate dropping out, moving to a new city, and starting a new life.

Maybe dropping out of school, moving to California, and becoming a stripper doesn't sound like that bad of an idea after all (sorry, mom).

When it's time to get the grades back and you get into a debate with yourself about whether or not you did well.

After all your exams end: "I did so well on all of these! I got this!"

Five minutes later: "Or maybe not because it happens when I get my hopes up and I will probably kill my GPA in the long run."

When it's the middle of finals week and you're just excited for all of it to be over so you can go home.

Who cares if I still have three more finals to take? I'm just excited for all of them to be over already so I can reunite with my mom and my dog once more.

When all the studying and coffee gets to you and you start to go crazy.

Me? Going crazy? I'm not going crazy. I was just up all night studying for the last four nights and living on nothing but coffee for the last two weeks so I can function properly.

When you actually get your grades back and you found you did better than you thought.

I'm still in good academic standing!! WOO!!!

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.

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?
