Women in long-term relationships stare wistfully at engagement rings in store windows and drop hints to their significant others of where they’d like to go for dinner on Feb. 14.
With finals less than a week away, the panic starts to set in. All your projects seem to be due at the same time, and of course, all of your tests come at once. It is easy to get caught up in it all, but it is key to stay organized and keep an open mind.
