As finals fast approach, stress begins to rise, eating habits decline, free time no longer exists, and Facebook statuses become even more obnoxious as everyone complains about how horrible their lives are because of finals.
A few of my favorites that always seem to make an appearance:
1. "I am changing my address this week to: 4th floor of the Library"
2. " FINALS SUCK!"
3. "3 down, 1 to go!"
4. "Still have 5 left"
5. "I can't wait until I am done"
6. "I should have studied more this semester"
7. "Finished"
So classic.
During finals I usually really let myself go. My freshman year, I wore my running spandex to class because I did not have time to do laundry due to all my studying. (aka I just didn't want to do laundry period. ) My showering habits, which already suck, become less than ideal. And my eating, well that's not important.
This semester I started grad school. What the? I am so mature. Except not. Undergrad had its challenges, but I tell you what, undergrad ain't got nothing on grad school. You know how in undergrad you go over something in class and the teacher says goes into way more detail than you will ever need to know for that class and then says, don't worry about that- it's not importnat. Well, all that stuff they skip over in undergrad is important in grad school. It's all those dumb details that make up your test.
For example:
Undergrad anatomy: You have arteries in your arm, a lot of them. Just know the axillary and brachial.
Graduate anatomy: You have 230498230948230948 arteries in your arm. Know them all or die.
This semester I failed my first test. Yeah. I am not being dramatic either. I am not one of the student's who when I say I "fail" it means I got an A-. When I say I fail, I mean I FAILED that sucker. After tears, eating a lot of pizza, cake, and ice cream. I got over it. However, my grade has not gotten over it. Therefore, I have to destroy my finals. Boo.
But, you know what, I can do it. I have to do it. Good luck on your finals! Gloria Gaynor graciously wants me to remind you that, you will survive!
No matter what, just remember, no matter what happens, Christmas will come. Praise the heavens.
You forgot to mention that because you didn't do your laundry that week during freshman year that you had to haul it down in a suitcase haha. Love you Abbers! Good luck, and YOU CAN DO IT!
