Thoughts During Finals Week

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Illinois State chapter.

Well, finals week is here and we all know that means. Pulling all-nighters, making way too many coffee trips and of course, procrastinating. Here are some of HC’s thoughts during finals week! 

 

I have the whole weekend to study, I don’t need to start now! 

*Regrets that decision once the weekend is over*  

If I go to the library, I’m definitely going to be more productive.  

Ugh. I wish I paid more attention in this class.  

Honestly, I can’t study until I finish making my Christmas list.  

OMG. Did we even learn this?! 

I can’t function. I need to make another Starbucks run.  

*Spends more time calculating the grade I need to get to pass the class instead of actually studying*  

I’m going to take a Netflix break…just for twenty minutes though. 

I wonder what my friends are doing right now. 

I deserve to relax today, then I’ll start studying tonight!   

Okay I need to study now; I’m going to pull an all-nighter.  

*Stares at study guide hoping I’ll magically just remember everything* 

*Two hours until exam* 

OMG I’M GOING TO FAIL AND NEVER GET A JOB 

I haven’t sleep in 24 hours, don’t talk to me. 

I can’t wait for winter break; I need to think about everything I’m going to do when I’m home. 

I need to get to class twenty minutes early to get a good seat for this test.  

*Has a mini panic attack two minutes before the exam* 

OMG, I forgot everything. 

 

The only thing getting me through this is knowing I can lay in bed forever once I’m done with all of these finals. 

Don’t worry – we’re all thinking the same way during the long and dreaded week of finals. Procrastination will definitely hit us hard, but we can get through it! Good luck this week ladies, may the odds be ever in your favor.  

 

XOXO HC
