Standing between us and winter break however, is the hulking menace that is the exam period (dramatic, I know). Somehow I lucked out and\u00a0only have one exam during the exam period but I also have a large final project in 3 of my classes, and small final projects in the other 2 - so I'm still pretty stressed out. When I have a lot due it can be really tempting to just lock myself in my room and watch\u00a0Netflix and cry<\/del>\u00a0not emerge until everything is done so this year I'm making a special effort to get out and recharge\u00a0during this end of term crunch.\r\n\r\nTo remind myself of the joy that will come after all these assignments are done I've turned to my second favourite genre of music: Christmas music. Listening to Christmas music always makes me happy so I have a (very large) playlist of it on my phone to listen to while studying or walking across campus.\r\n\r\n

It's absolutely beautiful and super peaceful in there so its the perfect place to go if you just need a break from studying, rushing to class, or general holiday chaos. Being surrounded by so much green also makes it easy to forget that it's winter outside, I envision myself spending a lot of time here come February when we've all forgotten what grass looks like.\u00a0\"bamboo<\/a>\u00a0\"donnelly\"the<\/a> \"bamboo<\/a> \"DSCF4580\"<\/a>\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nHow are you surviving the end of term crunch U of T?
