Always a good idea for finals week: Hugging a puppy. Dark pink nails. Throwing the windows open. Fresh air. Taking two minutes to ignore the gnawing thoughts of exams, graduation and everything afterwards.
Complete denial has been my tactic du jour.
"Senior bonfire? I wasn't invited. I'm a freshman."
or
"I was held back. That still happens in college."
