Midterm Motivation: Crossword Style

By Niabi

I am sitting here on Monday in a sort of trance. My stomach wishes that it were still full of last week’s Thanksgiving dinner, and I am staring at my agenda trying to muster up the strength to open my books and start reading. I can’t do it people. What with the early snow and the craving for more turkey stuffing, the struggle is too real right now. So guess what? I decided to make us a crossword instead. But this isn’t just any kind of crossword. This is a *cue drum roll…MIDTERM MOTIVATION CROSSWORD!

Yes, you read that right. I don’t know how effective this will be in motivation you to start studying, but if you have reached the point where you are willing to do anything to get the academic gears turning again, its worth a shot. Good luck on midterms everyone!
