Stress Eating During Finals, as Told by Angelica Pickles

This article is written by a student writer from the Spoon University at BU chapter.

From pulling all nighters with a bowl of popcorn to eating a pack of Oreos for breakfast before an 8 am final, we’ve all been there. Even though Angelica wasn’t old enough to take finals, she still feels our pain (so does Cynthia). Before you dig into that next bowl of popcorn, throw it back and let one of your favorite Rugrats show you what stress eating during finals really looks like.
