It has come to my attention that finals week has got to be one of the most confusing and crazy times of year. Well, ok maybe not so confusing as some things but there are some peculiar points to finals. For one thing, finals week stress differs from person to person. For some people they feel as if that one test for that one class will either be the death or life of them. While for others, like myself, they just look at the final and think, hmmm it only counts for so much of the grade and my grade (if its good) won't be that bad. Then of course there are those students who act more like me when they should be thinking, "hmm... I might fail this class."
For me I guess the craziest thing is actually having to get my stuff in gear, and pack. Not going to lie, it's kind of bizarre realizing that I won't be here for quite a few months. It is also kind of bitter sweet to say goodbye to the icebox of #228. Kind of strange just realizing that a whole entire year of college is over and a new year awaits me. I must admit it is also weird knowing tonight is my last night in this bed. But at the same time it's refreshing. There isn't one thing that through the course of this school year I would change in a heartbeat. I laughed, cried, got stressed out, screamed, and lived.
The thing about finals week ultimately is not about the tests, but being able to realize that this is the final week of the semester, of the year, of your college life thus far. Finals week: a time to reflect how far you've come and have no regrets.
