During midterms, it feels like all of a sudden the professors made everything due within the same week of the semester. You eat, sleep, and study until it feels like your brain has turned to mush. Luckily, you aren’t alone in this. Here are a few thoughts every college student encounters during midterms...

“I am literally going to be up all night.”

When you realize you're going to be up all night because you know absolutely nothing.

*When you spend $200 on a book that the professor said was required and haven't used yet*

You dread buying books each semester in fear that you will never use the book and here you are... halfway through the semester and the professor hasn't required you to read any of the books.

“What job can I get without a degree?”

When you've hit the point where you feel like you're going to fail all your tests and consider dropping out and working at Burger King the rest of your life.

“I’m just going to lay here for 5 minutes.” *Two Hours Later*

“Did I really just have five shots of espresso?”

“How homeless do I look right now?”

*When someone talks about having a 4.0”

When you sit next to Miss Know-It-All and they start talking to you about how much they studied for the test and how they have a 4.0.

“Everything is going to be OK...maybe.”

*At Graduation*

Here's a list of Christmas traditions that my family does, and anyone can incorporate into their family as well!

It’s here; that time of year when college students turn into preschoolers again. We cry for our mothers, eat everything in sight, and whine when we don’t get our way. It’s finals, the dreaded time of the semester when we all realize we should have been paying attention in class instead of literally doing anything else but that. Everyone has to take them, and yes, unfortunately, they are inevitable. But just because they are here and inevitable does not mean they’re peaches and cream and full of rainbows. Surviving them is a must, and the following five phases are a reality for all majors from business to art, nursing to history.
