Finals week. A whole five days where students experience nothing but stress, tears, and a lack of sleep. While we should be completely focused on what we're studying, we often get distracted. These are 10 thoughts students have throughout the course of the week.

1. How can I get out of this exam?

Quick, start brainstorming excuses.

2. What is the lowest score I could get on this exam to still pass the class?

I can manage to get that many questions correct, right?

3. I'm going on hour 12 of studying. I still know nothing.

I just read an entire chapter and don't remember anything. This is good.

4. Maybe it’s best for everyone if I just drop out.

I think my parents will understand. I tried my best.

5. *Gets mad about a single person using an entire classroom to study*

Please, don't be that person.

6. Well, I’ve never seen this before in my life.

I think my professor is trying to make me cry.

7. Do you think they’ll deliver food to the library?

I haven't moved from this seat in what feels like days. Can someone order food before I pass out?

8. I haven’t seen my roommate in days, should I be concerned?

I think they're studying... I hope.

9. Is anyone else struggling as much as I am?

Why didn't I take this class with my friends? I need serious help.

10. Just push through it, you’re going home!

So close to sleeping in my bed. Let's do this.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
