Finals Week Survival Kit



Finals are almost here and you'll probably be spending more time in the Rod studying than you are sleeping. Needless to say, it is a stressful and exhausting week filled with papers, projects and exams. To help you survive the exciting end of the semester, here is a how to make your own finals week survival kit. Throw one together for yourself or for a group a friends.
  • Make late-night studying better with fun study aids like post-its in different shapes or neon highlighters.
  • Everyone loves mindless snacking while buried in your textbooks. Include yummy snacks such as individual popcorn bags, chocolate, granola bars, or cracker packs.
  • Write encouraging notes that motivate you to keep going like “You can do it!” and “Only one more test to go!”
  • Throw in some cozy accessories for those rare hours that you actually get to sleep or relax. Think a little stuffed animal, a soft fleece blanket, or fuzzy slippers.
  • The holidays are right around the corner and as you chug through finals you’re most likely already dreaming of home. Add some of your favorite treats like homemade cookies, candy canes or hot chocolate to put you in the holiday spirit!
  • Finally, every college student needs extra energy to make it through all the 2 a.m. study sessions. Put in coffee, tea, Red Bull, or anything that will give you that extra boost.
Hopefully your survival kit will make finals week a little more bearable. And remember to breath deep, get as much sleep as you can, and try to not stress too much. We're rooting for you!
