You're watching a show. Your favorite characters fall in love and become soulmates and become your eternal relationship goals. There are countless onscreen romances that I fall in love with. But the best? Here're 11 best onscreen television romances that make me swoon every time I see them:

11. Hanna and Caleb.

This Pretty Little Liar is also a lucky little liar. To be on the arm of that piece of man candy caught my envy. Hanna and Caleb are truly a great couple. They broke up for a little while but they do get back together in season seven!! (oops, spoiler) Best couple on that show.

10. Cory and Topanga.

Break out the jean overalls and clunky shoes, your favorite 90s school-aged couple is here. They came into ours and each other's hearts on Boy Meets World, and then 20 years later, into Disney Channel on Girl Meets World to introduce their daughter (and son) to the world. Their happiness is my happiness.

9. Chuck and Blair.

Don't @ me, Gossip Girl fans. I put them at #9 because yes, they are an iconic TV couple but they went through so much vindictive, backstabbing plans to end up together. Some Bonnie & Clyde fantasy deep down in your heart may be yearning for a romance like Chuck and Blair's. Be careful: don't want to end up with a Dan instead.

8. Carrie and Mr. Big.

Heartbreaking but romantic, they just had to make the list. Their iconic relationship gave Sex and the City twists and turns, leaving us wondering if Carrie and Mr. Big are truly meant for each other. Of course, they are, through all the affairs, late nights, and on and off again times spent together. Of course, I'm still waiting for my Mr. Big.

7. Mark and Lexie.

I'm a sucker for underdog relationships. Grey's Anatomy showcased the "Mer-Der" relationship for eleven seasons. But they missed a very important one: Mark and Lexie. Lexie brought out the good in Mark and showed him how to love. Killing them both off was a bad move, Shonda. Still breaks my heart every time I watch that plane crash episode (spoiler again, sorry!).

6. Jim and Pam.

UGH. MY HEART. Jim never gave up, not once. The way he looks at her, even when they weren't dating. He liked/loved Pam since the very first episode and never strayed, even when he was in that other branch and then dated that slut saleswoman. Pam eventually dumped her fiance Roy for him, but a little too late there Pammy. It's a good thing Jim is literally the best guy out there. He waited. And waited. And waited. Where's my Jim?

5. Luke and Lorelai.

Who wouldn't fall in love with a man who serves you coffee and donuts every morning, sometimes for free? When I first saw Lorelai and Luke together, I knew it. They would end up together. Okay, not the first time. But after the second time I watched the entire series, I KNEW IT. I saw the signs. I'm just glad they got their happy ending (man, why do I keep doing that?!). I mean, the way he holds her and says things like "I'm all in." Their relationship just makes your heart warm and wanna live in a small town your entire life.

4. Meredith and Derek.

Yes, yes. Of course, they're an iconic TV show couple. They're freaking MER-DER! Through every up and every down (and there were a lot of downs), they somehow found their way back to each other. Meredith built that house of candles, Derek always staying faithful even when Mer thought he was not, and all the happy moments in between. They loved each other even when they didn't even know it yet. And who can forget about the house Derek built for her? Talk about a Noah/Allie moment.

3. Lily and Marshall.

I just keep sobbing internally as I write this article. Lilly and Marshall, a couple who met on the first day of college who stayed together for nine years (with a three-month break) through all the big moments. They were so good together, they molded into one person. I truly look to them as goals because honestly, they're #goals.

2. Nathan and Haley.

I'm still watching One Tree Hill, on season three, and loving it. I've so far concluded that Nathan and Haley are my favorite couple EVER. He supported her even when it felt like he was losing her. She loved him even when he was a jerk. She changed him. #23

1. Chandler and Monica.

FINALLY. The moment you've all been waiting for. Chandler and Monica are hands-down my favorite TV couple. Friends first, then "hooked up" at her brother's wedding, all the way to their own wedding, where Chandler had his mini freak out but it all went smoothly. They loved each other, supported each other, and were each other's best friends. Chandler truly became his best self around her and so did Monica. Truly, their relationship leaves me speechless.

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter

It's not all morning coffees and singing along to the radio.

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter
morethanwheels

I've been in college for four years now. I spent half my time as a commuter and half as a resident so I've experienced both sides of the housing spectrum. One thing I've learned comparing the two is that my struggles as a commuter far outweigh anything I went through while living on campus. Commuters have to deal with the problems school brings along with a slew of other issues; I've filled up my gas tank in the worst kind of weather conditions and napped in random places in public more times than I'm proud to say of. This is a list of some of the most challenging aspects of being a commuter.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

The 5 Painfully True Stages Of Camping Out At The Library

For those long nights that turn into mornings when the struggle is real.

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
