If you haven’t already began testing, chances are you will soon. Finals week is full of tears, office hours, late night snacks and no sleep. Students stay up all night studying for one test that massively impacts their term grade — it is a daunting feat. When you get overwhelmed with the final’s week blues, it is alright to put the books down and pick up the phone for a moment of levity. Here are six social media accounts that will keep students laughing instead of crying during finals week:
Instagram:

The account takes videos and photos sent in by followers and quotes them with humorous captions that will keep people laughing for hours. With over 6,000 posts on the page, students are sure to have enough content to distract them from finals — perhaps for too long.
The “Texts From Your Ex” page is an account that consists solely of text messages between ex-partners. The page encourages its 2.5 million followers to submit screenshots of real conversations that have occurred between them and their former lovers — which often consist of humorous bickering and light-hearted insulting. With over 2,000 conversations, students will have plenty of playful content between exes to keep them laughing.
“My Day With Leo” is an entertaining page that takes the faces of celebrities and puts them on regular people’s bodies.

With over 6 million followers and 39,000 tweets, the account is full of hysterical content that will help students make light of an otherwise intense week of the term.
