F-I-N-A-L-S

I love finals week. Okay, not so much, but I'm trying to stay positive.

But I really do love finals week because it gives me a "get out of jail free" card for any sort of atrocious thing I do to my body.

Get two hours of sleep one night? eh, it's finals.
Have brownies and Dr. Pepper for breakfast? eh, it's finals.
Wear random things from your closest that make you look like a homeless person? eh, it's finals.
Don't shower for a few days? eh, it's...

The list goes on. And somehow everyone accepts "It's finals" as a valid excuse for any sort of odd behavior. I feel like I should milk finals week (and the week leading up to finals week) for all it's worth. I'm going to go eat some chocolate :)

See, I do these things all year.

Well, I'd never do Dr. Pepper for breakfast. Too early in the morning for all that sugar. But not shower for four days? Heck yes.

yes! I totally had cake for breakfast and popcorn for dinner. I should have some good reason like oh I was just too busy to do anything... but oh wait, I just watched 4 episodes of Gilmore Girls.

All I have to say about this is YES.

Does the Finals Week Get Out of Jail Free card apply even if you a) aren't in college anymore and b) live in North Carolina? If so, it would explain so much about my behavior this last week ...
