1. Take frequent Netflix breaks.
Studying is all well and good, but don’t overwork yourself. Make sure to set aside time for a good ol’ Netflix binge and plenty of junk food.
2. Treat yo’ self to Dairy Store ice cream.
Dairy store ice cream makes everything better, especially during finals week.
3. Christmas decorations!
It’s not hard to get into the Christmas spirit, so get a tree with your roomie, hang up some colorful string lights and allow yourself to be soothed by the comfort of your room.
4. Get a good work-out in.
Exercise releases endorphins, which will put you in a better mood. So if you’re feeling stressed out, make sure to go for a jog to work off all of the stress.
5. Sleep, sleep and more sleep.
Like you really need an excuse to sleep? Seriously though, sleep is good for you. Please make sure you rest up for your exams.
6. Find your perfect study spot.
Nothing beats that place where you feel perfectly relaxed and focused at the same time.
7. Remember you’ll be home soon.
Knowing you’ll soon be back with your awesome family is enough motivation to get you through finals. Think home-cooked meals!
8. Study in groups and with friends.
Just make sure you’re actually making progress.
