Though we all technically have a higher chance of getting more sleep than we did in high school, college students — very much like Michael Scott from "The Office" — tend to procrastinate until we have no option but to do our work.

But, then again, we all love Michael Scott anyway...so we don't really mind the resemblance. Here are 12 ways all college students are exactly like Michael Scott.

  1. You take naps whenever possible & how dare anyone try to wake you up.
  2. And those days that you don’t even know what day it is and you just can’t anymore.
  3. You used to ignore caffeine like it was something you don’t need, but now you’re inhaling coffee and swallowing sugar like there’s no tomorrow.
  4. Somehow you make it to those 8 am classes and realize you forgot your assignment — and there's that one kid who you know will tell the professor.
  5. Then you have those morbid presentations — you know: the type you tell yourself you can wing and get yourself through but then 10 minutes before you panic and attempt to cram? Yeah, those.
  6. By that point it's Wednesday when you actually realize it...
  7. And there's no difference between how you feel and what people see.
  8. So of course at this point your dressing skills have gone to dogs when someone tells you, "You look comfortable!"
  9. But then you have a newly scheduled quiz for Friday.
  10. And before you know it, all you do during the week is eat, sleep, study and repeat.
  11. But as soon as the week started the week ended, and it's the weekend.

But just like Michael Scott, we're all just trying to be good people — but don't forget to take a breather every now and then! (And a hella good power nap!)

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.

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.
