Finals weeks are here again.

It's what you've been waiting for all semester.

1. When you start the week with confidence.

2. But it fades quickly.

3. When it's Monday of finals week and the barista tells you they're out of espresso.

4. When you realize your life revolves around your professor's life.

5. When you don't even try to look cute anymore.

6. When you look at that selfie you took last week and remember a time when you were happy.

7. When your friend says they don't have any finals.

8. When you cry yourself to sleep after a late-night study sesh.

9. When your roommate cries more than you do.

10. When you finally get serious about exams.


11. When you try to memorize the entire semester in one week.

12. When your friends ask if you have time to party the weekend before.

13. When you party anyways.

14. When you've been so anti-social that your friends have to intervene.

15. When Sam Smith comes on the radio and reminds you it's all meaningless.

16. When it's perfectly normal for you to break down in public.

17. When you call your parents and have to pretend you're not dying.

18.When your friend leaves the group to go take a final.

19. What you expect the professor to do.


20. What he really does.

21. When you're staring at that blank test and start to question everything.

22. When the test question literally makes no sense.

23. When you only skipped one of the readings all semester but the final's over the one you skipped.

24. When you realize an A is an illusion.

25. When you fill out that course evaluation.


26. When you try to warn others to not take that class.

27. When you've taken your last final but you're still in denial.

28. When you realize you've made it!

May the curve be ever in your favor!

"The Office" is a mockumentary based on everyday office life featuring love triangles, silly pranks and everything in between. It can get pretty crazy for just an average day at the office.

When you were little, your parents probably told you television makes your brain rot so you wouldn't watch it for twelve straight hours. However, I feel we can learn some pretty valuable stuff from television shows. "The Office," while a comedy, has some pretty teachable moments thrown in there. You may not know how to react in a situation where a co-worker does something crazy (like put your office supplies in jello) but thanks to "The Office," now you'll have an idea how to behave ifsomething like that should happen.

Here are just a few of the things that religious Office watchers can expect to learn.

High School And College Sucked All Of The Fun Out Of Reading

I keep making this joke whenever the idea of books is brought up: "God, I wish I knew how to read."

"The Stranger" by Albert Campus touches upon many heavy elements... but not in the way you expect. Although it touches upon the aspects of death and love, it also deals with a hidden philosophy similar to that of nihilism.

The story follows the short life events of Meursault, a Frenchman whose carelessness for his actions eventually ends him in jail and dependent on a jury of people to judge the ethicality of his decision and the punishment that he deserves.

He finally snaps when the prison sends a priest to him to absolve him of his sins and to cajole him in confessing to the lord.
