Ah, finals. It's obviously extremely stressful for college students all around the country. Scrambling to remember semester-long information for every class at once can be a challenge. Luckily, caffeine exists, and caffeine can help tired students stay awake and can keep them studying for hours. Don't know which caffeine loaded snack you should nibble on while you read your textbook? Luckily, your zodiac sign can help you out with making that decision.
Aquarius (January 20-February 18): Dark Chocolate Covered Espresso Beans
If you're an Aquarius, you should nibble on dark chocolate covered expresso beans, found at Trader Joe's. An Aquarius may seem shy on the outside, but they can be energetic on the inside. This is why a treat that seems ordinary on the outside but is packed with energy on the inside is the perfect study sesh snack for this sign.
Pisces (February 19-March 20): Caffex Marshmallows
Pisces are often caring, wise, and willing to help others. Basically, they experience an overload of emotions 24/7. During finals week, these emotions are gooey— just like marshmallows, hence the need to munch on Caffex Marshmallows. Caffex Marshmallows are caffeine-packed marshmallows. What more can an emotionally fickle person that is searching for a quick energy boost ask for?
Aries (March 21-April 19): Frito-Lay Cracker Jack'D
An Aries is determined, confident, and team-oriented. During finals week, these people are trying to jack up their grades, so why not try out Frito-Lay Cracker Jack'D? This caffeinated snack is packed with an assortment of trail-mix like food items, including chocolate. Chocolate is a source of caffeine, and will keep a motived Aries to stay motivated when things get tough at the library.
Taurus (April 20-May 20): Brownies
A Taurus is well-grounded, stable, and practical. Brownies are a practical dessert that can be easily relied on, as they are simple but delicious. A stressed out Taurus can depend on brownies to be there for them when their overwhelming amount of work makes them want to cry. They will keep these people energized, because like I said, chocolate is a source of caffeine, right?
Gemini (May 21-June 20): Tiramisu
A Gemini is good at multi-tasking and is multi-layered. Tiramisu is multi-layered and has coffee as an ingredient, which obviously provides caffeine. Although people with this sign may feel stressed out during finals week, they are blessed with the ability to handle many things at once. Tiramisu will get a Gemini through their exams and help them come out smiling afterwards.
Cancer (June 21-July 22): Starbucks Strawberry Acai Refresher
A Cancer is very good at helping themselves and others around them. The Strawberry Acai Refresher, found at Starbucks, is packed with caffeine. By sipping on this chilled drink, this sign will be keeping their cool during finals week. These people want to make sure that everybody remains calm and collected, themselves included.
Leo (July 23-August 22): Chocolate Covered Strawberries
A Leo is a leader. They are creative and confident, and have something special about them that makes them stand out from the crowd. This is why chocolate covered strawberries are the best choice for a finals week snack. Besides the fact that chocolate has caffeine, chocolate covered strawberries have an extra layer that makes them special, just like a Leo.
Virgo (August 23-September 22): Haagen Dazs Coffee-Flavored Ice Cream
A Virgo is all work, no play. They are always looking over the smallest of details and worry often. Finals week may make these people want to melt away, which is why Haagen Dazs Coffee Flavored Ice Cream is their recommended energizer. The coffee provides caffeine, and the ice cream melts in their mouths, reminding these people that they can get through anything.
Libra (September 23-October 22): S'mores
A Libra is very good at keeping everything balanced. During finals week, these people are trying to keep their balance with all of the work that they have piled on top of them. S'mores are sandwiches that have many different elements inside of them, but manage to keep their balance and stay together. At the end of the week, these people will be asking for s'more (sorry, not sorry).
Scorpio (October 23-November 21): Caffeinated Smart Cookie
A Scorpio is a very studious, determined, fact-based, and resourceful person. Luckily, a company called Get Up And Go has created a snack for these smart cookies: Caffeinated Smart Cookies! These treats have 180 mg of caffeine per cookie, which is more than enough to keep these people studying all week long.
Sagittarius (November 22-December 21): Hanukkah Gelt
A Sagittarius is often impatient, but speaks their mind, and has intense curiosity. This sign is placed in an unfortunate situation during finals week. For starters, their birthdays are either directly before, during, or after finals week. Secondly, their birthdays are right near the winter holidays. These two situations are likely to make these people feel antsy during finals week, and understandably so. All they want is for exams to be over so that they can celebrate. Therefore, their designated snack is Hanukkah gelt. By consuming this snack, they may feel more in the holiday spirit and slightly more relaxed about the unfortunate timing of their birthdays.
Capricorn (December 22-January 19): Fondue
Last but not least, a Capricorn is very good at self-control, managing others, and is a fountain of knowledge. As a result, their finals week snack is fondue (a literal fountain). The caffeinated chocolate will keep them going through exams, and this snack will also test their self-control and managing skills. Fondue is a dessert that requires a person to make a conscious choice about how many chocolate covered items they will consume. A Capricorn will be able to manage and control their intake, and also will be able to keep people away from their food.
Finals week is stressful. However, if you study hard and stock up on caffeine loaded snacks, you will ace your exams and feel great about yourself. Final exams can feel like impending doom, but you can and will get through them.
