Dear Little Ms. Know it all,

With finals week just around the corner I’m a little worried. Everyone is stressed out and I’m not one of them. Is something wrong with me? Should I be totally stressed out? All of my friends are but there really aren’t any of my finals that have me super nervous. Is that a problem? I thought maybe it was a good thing to not be stressed but I feel like literally everyone else is stressing and it makes me feel like I should be stressing more. What should I do?

Not actually stressed

Dear Not actually stressed,

I think it can be a great thing that you don’t feel the stress of finals week. I will say that it is important for you to know exactly how much your grades are going to be affected by your finals. Finals can account for 20% of your grade, or  maybe more or less depending on the teacher. I don’t say that to stress you out but I think it is important for you to know how much your grade will be affected by your finals. On the other hand, I think it is great that you aren’t totally stressed. If you aren’t an easily stressed person and you have stress coping methods that you like and that work for you that is awesome. You don’t have to be stressed just because everyone else is. Keep in mind that finals are a big deal, but if you feel confident going into your finals than that is great. Go rock that finals week!
