Finals Week As Told By 'The Office'

Whether you like it or not, finals week comes twice a year. And every time it brings about stress, anger, frustration and sweet sweet relief when it is finally all over. There's no better way to express this crazy range of emotions than through your favorite characters from The Office. (And it will waste far less time than binging 20 episodes of the show like you want to!)

When your professor says you have a final paper and a final exam.

When your friends drag you to the library and force you to study.

When you realize you need over 100% on the final to get an A in the class.

When you have no clue how to start your paper even though you're staring at the rubric.

When you're trying to find a table in the library.

Even though last week it was empty.

When you start studying for the class you ditched all semester.

After pulling an all nighter.

When you try and stress eat all of your problems away.

When you and your friends need a quick study break.

When you decide there's just no point in studying anymore.

When you study all night and you actually understand the material.

When you're giving a presentation and decide to go off script.

When you walk into your hardest final.

... and when you walk out of your hardest final.

When you forgot to hit save on your final paper.

When your friends won't hang out with you because they're too busy studying.

When you try and write a paper about a topic you know nothing about.

When the stress of the week really gets to you.

When you decide it might be easier to just drop out than keep studying.

When you get your final grades.

When you finally go home for Christmas break.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. 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.
