Library Binge


There comes a time in every college student's life where that student is expected to account for everything learned over four months. This time is called finals week. Now, this time is approached differently but for me it is a bitter sweet experience.
Most students find themselves cooped up in the library. However, these students aren't usually just studying. A new study showed that during finals week students spend 1 hour on facebook for every 2 hours of studying. Now this study may not be true but you get an idea on how ineffective studying can be.
For me, sites like twittter, facebook, youtube, google news, spotify and others deter me from my much-needed studying. I have yet to find a solution to this problem. It occurs every four months.
But distractions or no distractions, finals week does come and then it goes. For all those who are struggling to stay motivated for the rest of this week. Good luck and remember that how you perform on your finals correlates with how successful you will be.
