If you've never had a finals week as stressful as this one take a look at my list of things you can do to get finals off your mind and perhaps you'll add a new activity to your list of accomplished college bucket list items. (photo from urbancentriconline.com)

Perhaps you’re one of those kids that just does great on every test, without studying or even worrying a bit about what will be on it.

Two words: you suck.

For the rest of us out there that must go through the living hell known as finals week in a few days, I offer you hope. Here are some great events going on in the next week or so that will relieve a little stress and simply get your mind off that philosophy paper or history study guide that you should really be working on.

1. Final exam preparation and test anxiety reduction: this free event is exactly what it says, and will be held today from 4 to 5:30 p.m. in room 202 of Sullivan Center.
2. Be Chill bash: Get free massages, free express manicures, free oxygen bar and best of all, free food. There will also be giveaways and other activities – check it out at CFSU from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m.
3. Finals breakfast: A Loyola favorite. There will be two breakfasts, the first at the Lake Shore campus from 9:30 to 11:30 p.m. in Gentile on Dec. 14 and the second at the Water Tower Campus on the second floor of Baumhart Hall in the food court from 9 to 11 p.m. on Dec. 15.
