The Stress that comes with the week before spring break
The week before Spring Break seems to be like the week of final exams. As I studied in the library this afternoon, I noticed that it was full of students. I had to stop at several floors to get a group study room so that I could work on my lab report with my lab partner. And then as I was leaving, another group was waiting for the study room. Everyone in the library was very focused on some sort of work whether it be studying or writing a paper and there was not a sound within the library. It was definitely one of those creepy silences where you are scared to make any sort of noise without disturbing someone. All of the students also seemed very sleep deprived with large coffee cups in hand or a bottle of soda nearly empty. I have never seen the library like this before except during final exams. But then again, I am only a freshman who has not experienced the pre-spring break week. I know if someone was observing me though, they would note the same things: bottle of soda, look of sleep deprivation caused by stress. I do hope these weeks get easier; I don't want this to become a routine. I'm so tired of being stressed.

I know how you feel. This week has been very hard and it is only day 3, hump day as I like to call it. I'da never expected this to be so tough, especially since it is the week before spring break, but college is full of surprises
