Procrastination alert

Wait, we have a test today?

Feels like walking a tightrope.

College life. What we’re told is a chance to pursue your passions, secure a future career, and make incredible memories ends up being not so much that. College is stress distilled. Constant work, demanding professors, and indecision about your major guarantee at least one existential crisis by the end of the first semester. Add awful roommates and financial concerns to that, and you’ll quickly wonder why you chose to go to university in the first place. But, hey, it’s not all bad! Once you iron…

You don't even have to say it to know that finals week is upon us, and students at universities around the world are super bummed out about it.
