Ah, finals week. The time when everything seems more tempting than studying. Even taking out the trash. OK, maybe not that far. But let's be real, when there seems like you have 100 things to study for, everything is dependent upon the grades you get on your last exam and you feel like your world is spiraling out of academic control, it is easy to do many things but study. Here's a list of things we often find ourselves doing to avoid studying for exams, or do because our finals start driving us absolutely crazy. Trust me, I've been guilty of most if not all things on this list myself.

1. Eat anything in sight.

Whether it's sneaking a few brownies, or debating whether you should tackle the leftover chinese or order pizza, finals week is a time to splurge on food. Forget calories.

2. Think about how much work you have to do without actually completing it.

By the time you're done thinking about it all, you'll probably be more stressed than if you actually began the work but hey, it's better than studying, right? Yay for complaining.

3. Social media and texting.

Who cares if you just checked Facebook 30 seconds ago and nobody messaged you? Maybe someone tried sliding into your DMs just now. And if not, you'll check again five minutes later - just in case.

4. Family and friends.

My personal favorite! Even though they'll probably try to tell you to study, it wouldn't hurt trying to ask them to possibly hang out and forget about all obligations elsewhere.

5. Watch a movie.

Or maybe two movies. Heck, you have Netflix. Why not an all-nighter for movies? That sounds about right.

6. Take pictures.

Something about choosing a filter for Instagram is a bit more interesting than reading Shakespeare, or cramming for a calculus exam. And besides, you've been taking killer selfies lately. Why not, am I right?

7. Sleep.

At the end of the day, there's no better escape from studying than grabbing a few z's. And why not? There's always tomorrow.

8. Clean.

Why not work on a house makeover when you have an exam worth 25 percent of your grade in two days? After all, there are some annoying spots on your window that you hadn't noticed before. And some vacuuming to be done. Yup, some intense vacuuming.

9. Speaking of that, you hadn't really noticed how into interior decoration you were.

This calls for shopping! Mall, here I come. Let's buy everything, even things we don't need because why not? Rolls into store like a boss.

10. Music.

Here's to some rap, pop or maybe some soulful music so you can sing your exam stress pain away. Drake, is that you?

But the most important thing to remember is that no matter how hard or how stressful exams might seem, you can do it. And nothing says success like a little work hard play hard right?
