Finals Week as Told by Leslie Knope

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

Shamefully acknowedging that you should have started studying weeks ago

And it finally sinks in how much trouble you’re in

Knowing you can still do well if you start working hard now and don’t stop 

Being hit hard with sleep deprivation

 

Needing to call your mom/best friend from home every five minutes for emotional support

Psyching yourself up as you walk in to take your exam

Doing this all week until you walk out of your last exam, completely drained

And then realizing that you’re free from school for the next 3 months

Celebrating!

 

Even though you’ll probably still be working/doing an internship/taking summer classes…

Because just like Leslie, you know all of your hard work pays off
