What it Feels Like to Finally Finish a Huge Project

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

We all have those long, draining projects for work or school that seem to take up your entire life. Other things fall by the wayside as the project is prioritized over other classes, sleeping, and even eating proper meals. BUT, there’s no better feeling than putting your 100% into something and then finally reaping the rewards of being DONE. A lot of feelings will overtake you all at once, and will probably linger even after you finish your 24-hour nap. 

1. Relief

It’s OVER! Breathe a sigh of relief.

2. Pride

Girl, you worked HARD! Take a second and feel proud of your achievement.

3. Accomplishment

Whether it’s a project, presentation, or some other goal that you’ve acheived, revel in the final product and think about all the hard work that went into it.

4. Exhaustion

Sometimes adrenaline is all that keeps us going in these long projects, so the exhaustion might hit you like a ton of bricks once it’s over. Take a nap, you deserve it!
