We all know what finals week means: late night study sessions, excessive amounts of caffeine, and a lot of procrastination. Your fellow collegiettes totally understand the struggle—but they’re not the only ones who just get what it’s like to go through every stage of finals:

1. When you prepare to lock yourself in your room to study, waving goodbye to your social life in the process

2. When you attempt to tackle all your work, feeling confident and motivated

3. When you begin reviewing your notes, but literally nothing makes sense

4. When you try to figure out this thing called “math”

5. When 3 hours have passed, your notes still don’t make sense, and your eyes can’t take it anymore

6. When you run out of caffeinated beverages, and feel yourself dozing off

7. When you simply cannot read another sentence, and knock out on the closest piece of furniture

8. When you’re FINALLY done with the week

Good luck on finals, collegiettes!
