Not only are finals a pain in the a$$ by themselves, but they also interrupt the (and I quote) “most wonderful time of the year.” You know you’re in college when Christmas movies take a back seat to Orgo and making cookies is substituted for making flashcards. For a combination of the two different aspects of the season, here’s finals week as told by Home Alone’s own witty star, Kevin McCallister.
At first, you finish the last day of classes excited AF.
Then you remember you still have finals to take.
So you make the decision to buckle down and prepare.
But, once you start studying, it’s too overwhelming and your life begins to fall apart.
So, you give up and decide to watch Netflix.
After a while, you realize you haven’t studied at all and a panic attack sets in.
Quickly, you gather yourself and stay up all night…all week.
Your diet soon consists solely of foods that can be delivered to you…
…which kind of gets out of hand.
Suddenly, it’s the little things that count.
Soon, the actual exams begin, and your friends ask if you think you’re ready.
But, you roll into your first final anyway, a bit disoriented from lack of sleep.
When you flip over the test, you see the first question and realize you have no clue.
Then you finally see a question you know the answer to.
After the first test, you power through the rest of exams, occasionally breaking down…
…but ultimately reminding yourself how awesome you are…despite the fact that you feel dead inside.
As finals progress, you leave your favorite professor’s final…
…and also leave the exam of the professor you hate.
You finish your last final with a sense of extreme satisfaction.
And finally leave campus at the end of the week, headed home for the holidays.
Happy Holidays from HCND!
