When you have a final for all of your classes

When your teacher says the final is cumulative

When you look at everything you have to get done in the week

When you finally get a practice question right

When you look over something you don’t ever remember learning

When you’d much rather be watching Netflix than studying your life away

When you’ve been holed in your room so long from studying

When you haven’t slept in two days

When you just really need to see those therapy dogs

When you’ve spent 8 hours studying for one test

When you can’t even think straight with all the information you’ve been absorbing

When you eat whatever you want whenever you want because you don’t even know if the sun is out

When you’re so sleep deprived you can barely stay awake

When you find out you’ve drank all your coffee

When you hope your parents will never be able to see the grades on your finals

When you feel like you’ve really learned all you’re supposed to know

When you think of how little time you have left to study

When you send your friend off to their last final but you’ve still got two more

When you see the first question on a test and have clue what it’s talking about

When there’s a written portion on an exam

When you can’t get out of that horrible test fast enough

When you finally actually do get to go home

While this time is rough, remember that you can do it! The winter break you get to spend the holidays with your friends and family will be so worth it in the end.
