By: Kelly Kinas ‘17

I believe most college students have had the misfortune of staying up for the entire night, struggling to stay awake and finish those 3 assignments you just happened to put off until that moment. Or maybe you have two midterms next week and you need to get this essay out of the way now so you can study for your exams. Whatever your reason, we’ve all been there. If you haven’t, you pure, lucky thing. Cherish it. Don’t be jealous of us (like you would be anyway) and just pity us a little and bring us coffee. Through my vast experience in all-nighters, I present to you the 10 stages I experience when I have to do an all nighter.
