- SNACKS (and no, we don’t mean Tom Holland)
Whether food helps you focus or you’re just a big back, bringing snacks is recommended for an extensive day of testing. These foods can include Goldfish, a pint of ice cream, 5-6 apples, lobster soup, Elizabeth Olsen, and chips.
2. WATER WATER WATER
Whether you bring a non-reusable water bottle or the warhead, which is a Stanley, water is necessary for test taking. For example, if you bring a hydroflasksksk, you can make enough noise to annoy the teacher enough to cancel the final.
3. YOUR WALLET
Though frowned upon, bribery isn’t too far from legal, and I’m sure your teacher will need the extra money.
4. BRING BACK THE RESTROOM PASS
I can’t tell you how many times I’ve been waiting for a ghost to return from the bathroom because the bathroom pass was missing…
5. HEADPHONES
While you take your test, some teachers (the best ones) will let you listen to music. I recommend bringing cheap headphones; the less noise canceling the better, because everyone wants to hear your music “taste”, trust me.
6. SELF DEFENSE
Don’t want anyone to cheat off of you? They won’t when you bring self-defense! Most people will be smart enough to mess with you, but if they do, you can stop them, with options including pepper spray, a hornet’s nest (bring a bee suit), a lightsaber, handcuffs, and rabies.
7. YOUR PHONE
Cheat. (for legal reasons I’m joking)
8. YOUR PETS
From dogs to cats, to your laser sharks, pets are a very comforting part of our lives. Though most classes are fine, this is not recommended for the culinary final.
9. HOODIES
It’s good to have options when it’s winter in one classroom, summer in the second, the Yellowstone supervolcano in the third, and an Antarctica snowstorm in the fourth. I’d bring the smallest crop top I can find with a hoodie over top because the dress code is optional.
10. YOUR BEDROOM
Why stop at a hoodie? Unlock a whole new level of cozy by bringing your entire daybed and ceiling fan to your testing room. If you really want to make your peers jealous and maybe a little bit concerned, consider bringing: your lava lamp, throw pillows, comforter, entire wardrobe (gotta have options!), or bed canopy to really set the vibe of your desk.
