'Twas The Week Before Finals

It's the most stressful time of the year.

'Twas the week before finals and all through the campus, students were scurrying about trying to save their grades in one last attempt before their final tests to be taken. Although you try as hard as you might to stay on top of your assignments but all of your professors laugh in your face, wag their finger and say "Not this semester." *cue evil laugh*

If you're like most students, this is sadly a normal occurrence. When it gets to this time of the semester, sometimes you get super motivated and get all your work done, while others take up various forms of procrastination. Below you will find several different kinds of people when it comes to finals week.

1. The productive one.

I am jealous of these people. They are on top of every assignment and have already studied for weeks before.


2. The one who tries to be productive, but just cannot.

I cannot express how much this is so true. I will have the day planned out, only to realize I laid in bed for half of the day.

3. The one who acknowledges their lack of productivity.

You know you're not productive, and frankly, you jut don't care.

4. The one who is productive, but not in the homework department.

Well, one of my friends is basically half way moved out of her apartment.

5. The one who crams the night before the final.

These are the people who will regularly pull all-nighters to study or write papers.


Finding these college kids so saddened with despair, some professors decide to make their lives easier by making the optional final or adding a curve to the final, happiness fills the air.

Happy week before finals to all, and to all a stressful week!

Everyone who is in college right now, or has ever been, knows the struggle of pulling in the strings at the last second. It seems impossible, and you have to do a LOT of things in order to assure your future for the next semester.

April Ludgate, historically, is a very annoyed person, and she doesn't hide it. Of all the times that I binged and re-binged "Parks and Rec," her attitude relates more and more to me.

The world is not always sunshine and rainbows, and you do not have to be, either.

Ask friends of mine to name a quality about me, and one a lot them will point out the fact that I am almost always smiling. I like to laugh and smile -- not to quote Buddy the Elf in April, but smiling is my favorite! It is probably my favorite go-to expression. However, what a lot of people do not see is that I have my down days. I have days when smiling and laughing is a real struggle, or when I have so much on my plate that going out of my way to behappy takes more effort than I have stored in me. Be it a symptom of college and growing up or a facet of life, I cannot always be content.
