What Finals Week is Like: Gilmore Girls Edition

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

So finals are coming up, and you’re not even sure where to start.

If you went to the gym before, by now you’ve completely stopped.

Image Source

Whether it’s nerves or the fact that you haven’t left the library for several hours, you are lashing out at your roommates or friends… for no reason.

Image Source

You’re using your time very wisely… by catching up on all your favorite shows.

Image Source

And then finally the time has come and your first final is at 8:30 in the morning.

Image Source

You immediately run to Bing’s or bring along some coffee from home in order to remedy your extreme exhaustion from studying all night.

Image Source

After your final you wait anxiously for your grade to be posted. Two days later, it still hasn’t been updated and you don’t know how to react.

Image Source

Any healthy eating habits you had before have been thrown out the window for fast food, ramen, vending machine candy and frozen dinners.

Image Source

All you want to do is…

Image Source

But you know you have to keep studying for the two more finals you have this week.

Image Source

You ask your mom for advice and all she has to say is…

Image Source

And so you seek out other classmates that are as cranky as you are to vent to.

Image Source

You enter your second final, and the teacher takes forever to pass out all the test forms.

Image Source

You have one more final to study for so you head to the library yet again.

Image Source

After a long week of studying, dealing with difficult teachers, and running around to different finals, you’re just so done.

Image Source

In the end through, all the tears and studying are worth it because you’ve survived yet another term at the best university around.

Image Source

After catching up on some sleep you decide to go out to celebrate finishing your finals.

Image Source

Soon after you are off on spring break to relax or road trip somewhere new!

Good luck on your finals, and remember that spring break is almost here, Beaver Nation!

She likes cheese, dogs, creative projects, obnoxious animal prints, garage sales, farmer's markets, and generally just being silly.
