I call upon anyone reading this post right now is welcome to contribute their own exam week travails. They weren’t kidding when they said there is strength in numbers.

I remember in 9th grade our Humanities teacher once scolded us for trying to see who was worse off in terms of work. To illustrate:
Student A: Oh my god, I studied for five hours last night!
Student B: Oh YEAH? Well I didn’t sleep until 3 AM!
Sounds crazy. But yesterday I did sleep at 3 AM, which brought up some nice memories of high school. Everyone right now must be so stressed out right now, swamped with work, going insane. For those lucky few who are “done,” let me say I wish slug hexes on you.
My week:
Saturday- 8:00 AM-3 PM; Karate belt physical test. I wake up at 6 AM and cry over my butt-kicking.
Me: “Guess what! I have an orange belt now.”
Sister: “WHAT?! You changed colors AGAIN?!”
*pause*
“Do they let you pick the colors?”
Monday- 9 AM-12 PM and 2-5 PM; 6 hours’ worth of exams (Dear Economics Department, Why did you let the Registrar screw your students?)
Wednesday- 10 PM; Professor Political Science will release the essay prompts for the final essay.
Thursday - 9 AM; Said essay for Professor is due.
High Noon; 7-9 page LJST paper assigned just last Thursday due.

But is it not really the most wonderful time of year? The productivity is edifying… Also, if you position yourself (and your work) close to the entrance of Frost, you will likely meet everyone you know on campus—every day.
Exactly like every other week, just more intense in some dimensions.
