10 Things You're Tired of Hearing This Holiday Season

It's no secret that the holidays are a time for families to congregate, eat, and celebrate the new year to come. With that being said, every teen and young adult can relate to the countless self-reflecting questions we are often asked. These questions are usually answered with the utmost diplomacy, yet what would happen if we answered them the way we actually wanted to? Someone do it, and let me know the result, but for now, let’s just all relate to the wonderful questions of this year’s holiday spectacular.


1. How’s school?

Oh it’s wonderful. You know, my statistics, economics and other super fun classes are just dandy. Living on a dream in some classes is really starting to pay off! (Not.)

2. Are you excited to be home?

No. I’d much rather be staying in my dorm, with three other people, who I love dearly, rather than on my cloud-like bed and a fully functioning washer and dryer.

3. Are you glad the semester is almost over?

Nope! Actually, I really do wish there wasn’t a break at all. An extra couple of weeks of super difficult courses is exactly what I want in my life.

4. What classes are you taking?

Oh you know… the ones that I’m enrolled in. If only I knew what was actually going on in them, I could give a much clearer answer.

5. Is it hard?

Nope! Super easy. Running straight A’s, being involved, maintaining leadership positions and engaging socially is really easy! Bring on more responsibility please!

6. What do you do for fun, while you’re away?

It’s in everyone at the table’s best interest if we save this for another time.

7. Did you miss me?

I did… until you just asked me that question.

8. What are your friends like?

Actually, I have none. Everyone is an alien with two heads, four arms and three legs. They’re completely different than anyone else you’ve ever met.

9. Any boys in your life?

There's only one! First name, Non. Last name, Existent.

10. How can you not have a boyfriend?


Hm… hold on, let me create a SurveyMonkey and find out the reasons, because I’m trying to find that answer, as well.

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

College is a great place to meet people, especially through Greek life. If you look closely at sororities, you'll quickly see there are many different types of girls you will meet.

1. The Legacy.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September. It becomes harder and harder to focus in classes and while doing assignments as the days get closer. The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.
