Sketchy Adderall dealings behind the card catalogue, bloodshot eyes and anxiety-ridden coffee shakes – if you guessed a scene from Requiem for a Dream, you would be terribly mistaken. This in fact is the sickening stench of Finals quickly approaching and plaguing Quinnipiac students. So as students fight off the homicidal tendencies this week, here’s a list of things to look forward to after the finals are finally finished.

Friday Night at Aunchi’s – The reason the 21+ crowd is trucking through this week is to savor the sweet albeit watered-down taste of Icehouse on their parched lips. This upcoming Friday will be the last of semester before we bid Quinnipiac adieu for painfully long five weeks.

The End of Morgue Hours – A highly anticipated time when students are allowed to speak above a whisper and peace is finally restored just in time for everyone to move out.

Home Sweet Home – You know it is time to go home your roommate’s snoring is getting louder, her chewing suddenly resembles that of a farm animal and her awful significant other’s toothbrush has finally landed a spot in your bathroom.
 

So buckle up for the horror of finals and look at the big picture - holiday gifts are only weeks away now. Oh wait, we're in a recession - nevermind.
