Exam stress tackled by bubble wrap and puppies

University students have ordered hundreds of metres of bubble wrap to burst as a way of relieving exam stress.

The University of Leicester students' union is planning "bubble wrap stations" where students can relax by popping the packaging material.

Puppies will also be brought in to soothe stressed-out students.

I get that exams can be stressful but bubble wrap and puppies surely they’ll end up being more of a distraction than a relaxant.

Bubble wrap is fun to pop the first four or five times, then it just becomes irritating and it would only be made worse if you had a room full of people doing it, and puppies urinating everywhere and yapping incessantly how would that help in anyway?


If students at the University of Leicester want to relieve stress maybe they should actually take a medical relaxant because puppies and bubble wrap sound like good ideas until you think about it and then you realise they aren’t.
