Finals are over! Time for celebration at GVSU... and a nice long break. This week was our last week before we get a break for about a month. Honestly, I love college so much because you get finals out of the way BEFORE you go on break so you can just relax and have fun during the holidays.
Holiday time at GV is pretty cool. Of course, it gets really really really snowy and they always have holiday tunes ringing from the clock tower that is in the middle of our campus. Its pretty cool.
Over the break, I plan on working up in admissions for a while, catching up on some reading (FOR FUN!), and hanging out with my family and friends. I have to use this time to gear up for next semester too considering it is the last one before I graduate! Wow, its weird just writing that. It has not hit me yet that I will be in cap and gown soon graduating from college. It sounds cliche but, it goes by so fast.
Anyway, hope everyone is staying safe and warm in this winter season!

Finals Time at GVSU!
Hello everyone! This week is finals week at grand valley so everyone is a little bit overwhelmed. I am pretty lucky, I only have three finals this week and they are spread out over three days, so I can get a lot of studying in.
The nice thing about finals week on campus is a lot places are open 24 hours. Starting the week before finals the library is open 24 hours, and they have free food and coffee in there so, it is a great place to study. It is not uncommon to see people carrying blankets and pillows into the library so they can catch some sleep during study breaks!
Many of the computer labs on campus are open 24 hours as well, that has helped me out a lot as I have been finishing up some projects this week. Because I am a senior, I have gone through finals week before and I have found that stressing out over exams does not help me. So, I have been studying hard but also enjoying watching Grey’s Anatomy with my roommate during my study breaks. The last week of school is always interesting because you find yourself working so hard, and then after your last exam it is all over, and you get to relax. I will be heading home at the end of this week which I am very excited about. Going home over Thanksgiving reminded me how much I enjoy my mom’s cooking!
I hope you all have a wonderful holiday season!!!
