When people say “finals week isn’t that bad!”
Trying to be really cute and nice to your professors so they round your grade up
When the final isn’t curved
When your professor says your test will be easy
When your neighbors are throwing a party during quiet hours
Going through your notes
After 12 hours of straight studying
Pretending like you’re totally OK
When people talk about how hard their test is going to be
You to yourself when the studying is actually going well
When it’s 3 AM but you still have to study
When you, a broken, stressed out person, try to comfort your broken, stressed out friends
When you can’t take another minute of studying
When you accept you’re going to fail
Walking to your final
When everyone anxiously looks around before the professor hands out the exam
How your professor looks at you before they pass out the exam
Reading the first question
Trying to get that A like
Halfway through the test
How you feel walking out knowing it’s over
When you’re done with all your tests
Leaving campus for Winter Break
Going home for Christmas
Seeing your loved ones
