I’m sorry for shaking my iced cap so loudly

Bonjour my dear friends,

This is an update from the deepest nook in the basement of a small shelter I could now refer to as home. I just got a death stare for shaking my iced cap because apparently it’s illegal to want it to be a smooth Iced Cappuccino rather than coffee on the bottom, ice on the top.

We are currently a few days into the period of time that some refer to as “war”, some as “mental and physical torture”, and some as “prolonged death”- yes my dear friends it is finals at UBC. The time for students from all around campus to unite and cram in order to make up for hours spent on Netflix instead of studying.

My friends, this time of year is intense. That’s all I have to say about it, intense. I’m currently in the most intense place of them all: the basement of Koerner library. Many of you might be thinking “thank God sista keep studying cause that was the most ratchet spelling of “corner” I’ve ever seen” and I’m happy- no, ecstatic- to state that I do know how to spell corner and i’m not a Kardashian sister  obsessed with the letter K: the name of the library I’m currently residing in is Koerner.

Although I like to pretend that finals are the bane of my existence- they’re not really. Let me share with you a piece of advice my iced cap-mixing hating friend probably did not receive as a child: finals aren’t the end of the world. I understand that it’s stressful, I understand that it’s hard but you need to understand that you can do this. Take a few breaths, recall some hardships that you’ve been through and excelled and remind yourself that it’s just a few days. Lets do this 🙂

Speaking of studying, i’m currently just avoiding it because I just had an exam and I feel like I should get a small break cause my brain can’t take in more information right now. How do you guys do that by the way? For all those university students as well as high schoolers out there- does anyone have any good tips on “mental palate cleansers” (yes i just made that up don’t judge) Or do you take the day off? Comment and share your tips!

Stay strong everyone!
