This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Mizzou chapter.
Because let’s be real: that’s what we’re actually doing.
What you thought you would be doing on stop day.
What you actually did.
When you realize how many finals you actually need to study for.
When you look at the study guide and don’t remember anything.
The realization that you won’t be getting sleep for the next day.
When the whole campus is at Ellis Library and the Student Center and you can’t find a spot.
When you haven’t slept in 72 hours and start giving up.
Test day arrives and you start thinking about all the potential jobs you could do when you fail college.
When you are taking the exam and actually know what’s going on.
That feeling when it’s all over.
Good luck with finals, and may the odds be ever in your favor!
