'Twas The Night Before Finals

The night before finals is a special night for college students. Typically, the night is either spent in denial or cramming every last possible bit of information into our brains. But either way, we know winter break is right around the corner.

'Twas the night before finals when all through ASU...

The students were panicking because all they had done for the last 7 weeks was watch Hulu.

The Starbucks line is long, the caffeine rush is near, in hopes that the coffee will keep us from shedding our tears.

via GIPHY

The students were in the library, though wishing they were in bed. While visions of A's danced in their heads.

And the professors with their scantrons, and I with my #2 pencil, will anxiously wait until the moment of peril.

I pulled up the final exam calculator; My fate I already knew. But I checked the odds anyway just in case they spontaneously grew.

via GIPHY

I had to get a 90% on my final in order to pass. Then I started to question whether I really needed that class.


via GIPHY

It was late. The library was quiet. Nobody was making a peep. This perfect combination lulled me to sleep.

via GIPHY

I dozed off quite quickly,a defense mechanism I suppose. And as thoughts of school faded, better thoughts arose.

via GIPHY

I dreamt of seeing friends who moved away!

via GIPHY

Visiting with family from afar!

via GIPHY

Binge watching Christmas movies!

via GIPHY

And putting up the Christmas Star!

via GIPHY

I woke up feeling ready as ever. Filled to the brim with Christmas cheer! I was going to ace this final for sure. CHRISTMAS WAS FINALLY HERE!

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

College is a great place to meet people, especially through Greek life. If you look closely at sororities, you'll quickly see there are many different types of girls you will meet.

1. The Legacy.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.
