Playlist: 7 songs to remind you to take care of yourself during finals

Finals are next week and you're either already stressed or in denial. Self care is so important during finals, so here's a playlist so you don't forget to love yourself.

1. "Water" – Pentatonix

Don't forget to drink plenty of H20 next week! If you need more convincing, check out my water themed playlist.

2. "Sleep" – My Chemical Romance

I know that you probably don't get eight hours of sleep a night, but make sure to rest up, especially the night before an exam.

3. "Fruits & Vegetables" – Jim Gaffigan

Take advantage of those last few dining hall swipes and energize yourself with a healthy salad or bowl of fruit.

4. "Exercise" – Jagwar Ma

While you probably won't be spending hours at the gym on a reading day, try walking to the library to get your morning started!

5. "Relax" – Frankie Goes To Hollywood

Trust me when I say that this is easier said than done, but give yourself some time to relax during finals. Watch an episode of New Girl, take a Buzzfeed quiz or acquire an eccentric lifestyle.

6. "IV. Sweatpants" – Childish Gambino

Get comfy in your favorite clothes and tackle that pile of reading!

7. "Shrug" – Christina Grimmie

 At the end of the day, there's only so much studying you can do. Just shrug it off and say "I'm doing the best I can."
