You Know It's Final Exam Week At Your College When...

As told by "Friends."

You Know It's Final Exam Week At Your College When...
Giphy

Well, friends, the time has come for us all to take the dreaded final exams. We all know what that means. Your sleep level is at an all-time, devastating low and your stress level is through the roof. Find comfort, however, that we are all in this together.

You know it's final exam week at your college when...

You are binge-eating anything and everything in sight. Are you hungry? Probably not. But oh well, it's keeping you awake, isn't it?

You keep trying to remember that you'll never be at this place, with these people, ever again, so you agree to do things that aren't related to studying. College is (hopefully...) a one-time experience, and we should try to have fun while we can.

Your mom calls to ask if you're prepared for your final in the morning, and you have to tell a little white lie to her. Let's face it, are we ever truly ready for the final?

The main thing that excites you is the prospect of actually getting a good night's rest.

Then you actually look at the study guide. Who needs sleep, anyways?

You try not to roll your eyes when your professors tell you that you should have studied over Thanksgiving break.

People are suddenly using the library, and now your normal working space is gone. (You know who you are.)

You try to get on great terms with your professors because they actually do hold your future in their hands.

You calculate the lowest grade you could possibly make on your final to pass, and you realize that it isn't as bad as you thought it'd be.

You justify treating yourself every once in a while. Do you think you deserve to watch an episode or two on Netflix? Treat yourself. Do you deserve to nap for an hour? Treat yourself. Do you want to take a shower? Go ahead and treat yourself, buddy. I support you.

Honestly, all that is on your mind is being home for the holidays...and not having to think about school for about a month. Well, until you have to buy textbooks for next semester, anyway.

The women of Meredith College wish you the best of luck on your finals and hope that you have a wonderful, stress-free holiday season with your loved ones!

I don't think I say it enough...

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
