A Glimpse at the Real World: No More Finals




This May is the first in the past 5 years, that I haven't pulled an all nighter, and I've got to tell you, I think I miss them. No not the finals part, but the fact that I felt that by pulling an all-nighter I could feel better about that fact that I didn't go to a single class all semester. My all-nighters usually consisted of a few "scooby-snacks" a tall boy or two of blue Monster, and at least 3 or 4 Xbox breaks. I think I actually looked forward to the all-nighters, especially when your friends are around the same table doing the same exact thing as you, trying not to go off on a 2 hour break downloading music just because you thought of one song you liked.




This year obviously is different though. Instead of thinking about how I am going to cram a semester's worth of knowledge into my head, I wake up trying to figure out how to make more money than I have. Commission is unreal by the way. But in times like these I think, I would love to go back to college, minus the whole Finals are worth 97% of your grade thing. I'll tell you one thing though, that feeling of being done with finals, but still having a couple extra days or senior week was a great one. Good luck on the finals, pull all-nighters, and whatever you do, make sure you have a lot of water.
