10 Times Michael Scott Perfectly Explained College Life
Post Grad Problems

As much as we may not want to admit it, Michael Scott is one of the key reasons we die of laughter every time we watch The Office. Sometimes, he can actually be pretty relatable. Here are 12 times that Michael Scott perfectly explained college life.

1. When writing one of your many essays:

With the amount of essays being written between 5 classes, sometimes you just write and hope for the best.

2. When you have endless amounts of homework but would rather do anything else:

There are times when you just have so much work where you don't even know where to begin. Instead, you do anything BUT your homework.

3. When you spaced out during class and thought you'd be able to catch up but then you sit down to do the homework and you realize you don't:

Let's be real- we all have those days where we just can't focus in class. We try to tell ourselves we can figure it out but in reality, we just have no clue. Trying to do the homework later that night can be a major struggle.

4. When you have to go to class hungover after a night out:

Well, at least we made it to class but that doesn't mean there's no pain involved.

5. When you get an email from your professor saying the class is canceled:

Honestly, this may be one of the best parts of college. You get more time to lay in bed and procrastinate!

6. When you get offered free food on campus but have to download an app before:

Wow, free food on campus! But wait- you have to download their free app and sign up for an email list in order to get it. Sorry... I have class soon.

7. When you realize you have $0.20 in your bank account:

Finding a way to continuously have money in college is hard. Sometimes it's painful just to even look at your bank account.

8. When your professor is looking for a random person to call on in class:


In a lecture hall of two hundred plus students, you'd rather not have your name called out when you have no idea what the question was in the first place.

9. When all your professors have final projects due during the same week:


Do professors not understand that we have 4 or more other classes and having to meet with 5 plus groups to work on projects is not very easy? Especially if your professors are all in the same department.

10. When you failed a test but at least you're done for the week and can go out:


We have all been there- sometimes we just know that we bombed that test but it's nothing a night out with friends can't fix.

As much as we love college, there are some things that we all have come to dread. But we will get through it, just like Michael Scott always seems to as well.

The Perks of Being a Girl

“I just want you to know that you’re very special… and the only reason I’m telling you is that I don’t know if anyone else ever has.”

As frustrating and annoying as it can be, being a girl is really awesome. We are beautiful inside and out. Not a lot of people may see that, but girls have a ton of amazing qualities.

We Heart It

Over the past decade, television has undergone a very crucial transition: the incorporation of female lead characters. Since it's a known fact that girls actually do run the world (Beyonce said so herself), it's time for the leading ladies of the small screen to get some credit. Without these characters, women would still be sitting in the background of our favorite shows. These women are not only trailblazers for female empowerment, but role models for women worldwide. With that, here are 15 of the smartest, sassiest ladies gracing our screens that remind us that women do, indeed, rule:

If you are like me, you have an interesting personality. Basically, you love to be sassy and snarky, gossip, and act like a total bitch (not really), but deep down, you are actually a very genuinely nice person. The idea of actually hurting someone truly makes you feel bad, and you probably have never actually hurt someone’s feelings because your kindness always shines through, even if you do not want it to. Not sure exactly what I would call this type of personality, but if you identify with it, here are some feelings you can undoubtedly relate to.
