So you made it – there’s only a couple of weeks left in the semester. That means plenty of projects to hand in, tests to study for, papers to write and things to stress about. This also means the holidays are that much closer, and it’s almost time for a long break that you can spend with your friends and family. Now you just have to make it to the end of the semester. These are some things that might occur during the end of the semester, as told by Parks and Recreation. 

 

1.     When you finally hand in the group project you’ve spent the entire semester working on. 

2.     When you and your friends study everyday for over a week for your last test, and you get an A back.

3.    When Salmo just couldn’t get any worse and your friends suggest going off campus to the Thirsty Beaver for one last time this semester.

4.     When you’re up all night studying for finals and Ronzio’s sounds like the best thing in the world, so you and your friends take a break and go there instead.

5.     When it’s the last weekend of the semester so you go out with your friends instead of staying in to study.

6.     When you think about how you shouldn’t have gone out this past weekend, how much work you will have, and how much studying you have to do in the next few days. 

7.     When it’s the last day of finals, you only have one exam standing between you and break, and all you can think about is Christmas being in four days.

8.     When you have to say goodbye to your friends for five weeks (especially the ones that are going abroad next semester).

9.     When all you can listen to on the way home is Christmas music because you finished all your finals, and can finally get in the spirit of the holidays!

10.     When this is all you can think after completing the semester. Great job collegiettes – you did it!
