Oh, finals week. It’s that point in the semester when you realize how close, you are to being able to forget all about your papers and assignments and start enjoying the freedom of summer. You’re so close, yet so far—or at least it feels that way. There’s a lot of panic, exhaustion, stress and then eventually, relief, that comes along with finals week. But have no fear, once the week is over, you’re free! So, without further delay, may I present to you what a typical finals week is like.
When it’s the last week of classes and you’re over it
But then you realize that means it’s finals week coming up
And that means stress and exhaustion
And LOTS of studying
When you desperately need sleep but you’re so nervous about tomorrow’s exam
So you fall asleep studying
And your nerves really kick in as you wait for the professor to hand out the test
Once you finish your most stressful exam and you feel like you can finally breathe
And finally, when you take your last exam and it’s officially summer vacation!
Finals week is filled with a lot of ups and downs—well, mainly downs, but no matter how bad it seems, you will make it through! Be sure to try and get sleep in the midst of all of your studying because it’s important and a big part of being able to focus during the actual exam itself.
Good luck and have an awesome summer!
