NO FEAR FINALS
By Lauren Sianez
Finals Week: If you're writing a research paper, start it sooner. Don't stress yourself out with a 6-
page paper, the night before its due; especially if you have more than one deadline the next day.
I've had 3 Finals, 5 pages each, and I gave myself 2 separate days, within the week, to finish
them- talk about a nightmare. Break down your time wisely, depending on the paper's length,
and other homework assignments from other classes. Start them 2 weeks in advance, to be safe,
and at the very least, start on the introduction- to ease your anxiety. You will feel better after
getting down the first few words and sentences, I promise. It'll help you get a feel for your paper
and calm your nerves. Your body and mind will thank you for avoiding that 4 AM crunch time
and praise you for getting a good night sleep.
