Unfortunately finals week is officially upon us. It is the week where we all have nervous breakdowns and by the end of it all we are left mentally, and most likely emotionally and physically, exhausted. In our efforts to pass our classes we go through hilarious and painstaking waves of emotions. Here are some all too relatable moments all college students go through during finals week as told by The Office:

1. When you go to see a tutor at the last minute and you realize that you actually know nothing.

 

2. You get a last minute email from your professor saying that there is an optional extra credit assignment!

 

3. When you realize your first exam is in less than 24 hours.

 

4. When the student who always raised their hand to answer a question in class says that they’re nervous for the final.

 

5. While taking the exam you question if you were even in the right class all semester.

 

6. You get to a question that you and your study group went over the night before.

 

7. When you finish an exam that you know you aced!

 

8. When you finished an exam that you’re pretty sure you bombed.

 

9. You just finished an exam for one class and your next one is immediately after and all the way across campus.

 

10. You’re trying to be social during the week but you just can’t stop thinking about that trick question on the exam you just took.

 

11. You try to do little things that you know will cheer you up after taking your hardest final yet. It’s the least you can do for yourself after the torture that lasted for almost 3 hours.

 

12. When you finish your last exam and finals week is officially over. You survived!

 

Try to remember that you are not the only one stressing out. Your classmates and most of the student body are on the same boat.  Look up some studying tips, relax, and remember to have a little faith in yourself. If you need a quick pick me up when you’re feeling overwhelmed, just take a well deserved break. Go on Netflix and pull up an episode of The Office. After all, laughter is the best medicine. Good luck on all of your finals!
