Action note: In: Summary: ABSTRACT: Academic stress is considered to be a part of students life and can impact the students coping strategies in accordance with the demands of academic life. This is so because academic work is always accomplished with stressful activities. For some students, academic stress is manageable (and even helpful, providing needed motivation and energy) - but for others, this can become so great that it interferes with their ability to focus and concentrate. In line with this, as students feel that academic stress is interfering with their ability to function in the right way, they resort to some activities that somehow help them cope with the constant feeling of academic stress. One coping mechanism that seems to be patronized by one of the most informed generation nowadays is the internet memes. The sample size was derived using purposive sampling and the results were gathered using a set of survey questions. Through a descriptive statistical method, it has been that senior high school students view internet memes for a temporary relief. Internet memes create distance between a person viewing it and the academic demands. Aside from its seemingly mindless and pure entertainment value, internet memes can be an effective tool for an access to various informations locally and internationally. Greater number of respondents expressed their agreement with the significance of internet memes to the online community. It provides different accessible informations that aim to provide essential quality knowledge. Communication of nideas and experiences has been possible through transmitting memes. Therefore, people behind these viral images with catchphrases must be responsible enough in creating such and future researchers should also try to use other respondents aside from senior high school students to test the reliability of meme viewing as a coping mechanism.
