10 Reasons Why Moving Really Sucks

Recently, I got the chance to move into a new apartment, which was an exciting opportunity (as it should be). I was super pumped about it...until I actually started the moving process.

1. You don't realize how much stuff you actually have until you start packing everything, so you literally just want to avoid the process.

2. You don't have enough boxes and storage bins (I actually dumped some of my already packed belongings onto the floor and used the empty storage bins to get even more stuff).

3. You run into the most random items and start reminiscing.

4. The new place doesn't have enough space to fit everything you own, and neither does your car (insert crying emoji here).

5. Your friends offer to help, but if they do, you won't know where anything is. Also, they're not the most careful people.

6. You have to clean the old place, like REALLY clean.

7. You're angry because your room was never as clean as you're leaving it now.

8. Talk about back pain.

9. You have to tell people where your new apartment is because they don't know where you live now.

10. Settling into the new place always feels awkward for the first couple of days because you're so used to the order you had at your old apartment.

Despite the trials and tribulations of moving, there is one positive thing to look forward to: redecorating!

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!

There is nothing quite like family.

Family is kinda like that one ex that you always find yourself running back to (except without all the regret and the angsty breakup texts that come along with it).

No matter how long your class is, there's always time for the mind to wander. Much like taking a shower or trying to fall asleep, sitting in a classroom can be a time when you get some of your best ideas. But, more than likely, you're probably just trying to mentally cope with listening to a boring lecturer drone on and on. Perhaps some of the following Aristotle-esque thoughts have popped into your head during class.

Bob's Burgers is arguably one of the best and most well-written shows on tv today. That, and it's just plain hilarious. From Louise's crazy antics to Tina's deadpan self-confidence, whether they are planning ways to take over school or craft better burgers, the Belchers know how to have fun. They may not be anywhere close to organized or put together, but they do offer up some wise words once and awhile.
