It’s that time of year again; a time when everyone storms into the library with their grande coffee, two red bulls and snacks to last them at least ten hours… finals week! I can’t complain too much, though. I finished my one and only final Monday at approximately 1 p.m. while the rest of my friends had been up for hours cramming (and acing) their exams. I feel pretty lucky to be done, but at the same time, nervous since I have only one semester left at MSU. Over the weekend I had time to reflect on the great experiences I’ve had at MSU during finals week and felt it necessary to share it with friends who can relate.
My top five finals week moments as a Spartan:
1. Midnight screams!!!
2. While minding my own business on 2 West of the Main Library, the elevator door opens with someone dressed as a wolverine and runs down the middle aisle as Sparty chases after “it” with a wiffle bat. 
3. Walking to the library from my dorm room freshman year, I slipped on a patch of ice in the stadium parking lot and fell, spilled my coffee, and had to walk in with the coffee stained on my jacket.
4. A girl at the business library decided it would be a good idea to take an entire table (a rarity) for herself. When we asked if we could sit with her, she scowled, and refused until my friend just sat down to spite her.
5. Sitting, listening to my i-pod at a table at 3 West in the Main Library (quiet floor!), a girl just begins rapping a Lil’ Wayne song.
I hope everyone studied hard for their finals and did well. Have a great, safe holiday break and come back with lots of memories and stories to share. Happy holidays to all!
