1.    Italian showers

 

    Were you up past 2am, woke up 20 minutes before your 8:30am class and simply CAN’T imagine taking a shower? No matter! Spray on so much perfume you resemble a middle school locker room. It’ll mask the stench of stress-sweat and impending doom.

  2.     Power(less) naps

    

You know a power nap? Where you sleep for 20 minutes and then wake up refreshed and ready to take on the world? Instead lie down for “a few minutes” and then wake up 2 ½ hours later having never felt less alive.

3. Accidental Netflix binges

 

You said you were only going to watch one more episode of Parks and Rec. One more episode. One more episode. One more season. Oops.

4.  Enough caffeine to kill a man

     

Is an accumulative 3 shots of espresso before 10am excessive? Nah.
