Waiting for finals grade to be entered is basically the equivalent of a life in eternal hell, and constant refreshing for at least a few days.

It's especially awful when you are so close to the grades you want or borderline between two. You have to wonder, do professors do it on purpose?

Here are some thoughts everyone has while waiting for final grades:

1. How long can this take to grade the final, it was on a Scantron?

2. There are less than 20 people in this class, it shouldn't take this long.

3. I know I just handed in my paper, but shouldn't it be graded now?

4. I should chill out, maybe the professor is just making sure he gives us meaningful feedback.

5. I'm at the top of the alphabet, shouldn't that mean I get graded first?

6. Maybe the teaching assistant isn't helping him grade.

7. Did my final get lost?

8. What if my final got lost...

9. I need to stop overreacting.

10. I wonder if my friends from class know their grades yet?

11. I should sleep, it's too late for them to post it now.

12. Maybe it will go up today.

13. Can they just post it already?

14. This waiting is gonna make me crazy.

15. And they are posted!

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.

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.
