5 Tips To Get Through Finals

In This Article:

Finals have arrived and the semester is close to an end, yet it feels so far. We all want to do amazing to reach that 4.0 GPA but your mental health is important! So to get through these finals here are few tips so you won't feel COMPLETELY dead.

1. Keep Healthy Snacks While You Study

As appealing as junk food sounds, it is best to keep healthy snacks that will fill you up like blueberries and almonds!

2. If You Don't Know It By Midnight You Won't Know It After

Your mental health is important just like these grades! All nighters are not the way to go and you will perform better if you have enough sleep than if you stayed up all night cramming everything at once.

3. Take 20 Minute Naps 

Giphy

As great a long naps sound, with just 20 minutes you will feel more energized than if you take a 2 hour nap. Even though more seems nicer, don't you ever feel less motivated after sleeping for so long? It is because your body had gone into a deep sleep mode and waking it up before a full sleep will make you feel "eh."

4. Cry it Out

Giphy

Listen, I know I should not be saying to not cry, but sometimes exams can overwhelm you and it is best to just let those tears out. Once you finish crying just tell yourself, "I got this."

5. ASK QUESTIONS

Giphy

Do not feel like you are annoying your professors and tutors by asking them so much. You spend so much in tuition, so you deserve to know everything!! Better to be annoying than unprepared.

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

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.

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.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September.
