All right. We all hate to admit it but unfortunately it is the most dreaded time of the year: finals week.
Finals week is a time to freak out, cry, eat too much, and somehow manage to stay alive. For anyone who watches "Parks and Recreation," we all know our favorite characters can have their fair share of freak outs, too. Even though they're not taking finals, they understand us and we understand them. Again, what a time to be alive. Here are a couple of reasons why college students can easily relate to the many adventures on "Parks and Recreation."
The moment when you realize finals week is actually a thing.
Wait, seriously? It was always that kind of thing I was just seriously avoiding and pretended was just a myth.
When that smart kid in your class talks about how easy the test will be.
All right Jimmy, we get it.
When someone asks you how you're gonna study for the exam.
I'm sorry, I don't understand what you mean.
When the teacher says, "This is not something you can start last minute."
Okay, challenge accepted.
When your friend asks you to work out to "relieve stress."
Why would you say something like that?
Watching Netflix instead of studying.
I'm not even sorry.
When you finally realize it's time to turn off Netflix and open the book.
Good times don't always last, I guess.
When you're reading and you realize you might actually understand the material.
Hey! Look at me. I'm awesome.
Then you realize you actually don't know anything.
It's okay. I'm still awesome.
Eating instead of studying.
Crying instead of studying.
Looking at pictures of cute puppies instead of studying.
Dogs do not disappoint me like chemistry does.
Wanting to be anywhere, absolutely anywhere, besides studying for finals.
I literally mean anywhere.
Doing anything besides studying.
Studying.
So, no matter how you slice it, finals week is a tough one for every college kid out there. As the great April Ludgate once said, "Being a responsible adult sucks butts."
Stay safe out there, kids. There's light at the end of this very, very, very dark tunnel. Eat a slice of pizza for me and study hard.
