12 Ways Joey Tribbiani Was a Mid-Spring Semester College Student

All students can relate to the mid-semester feeling of misery. Assignments begin to pile up, work becomes overbearing, club activities seem non-stop and we all begin to slowly lose motivation for almost everything. Spring break comes as a small moment of relief, teasing us with the pleasure of no responsibilities and relaxation. The mid-semester drag might be rough fall semester, but it becomes even worse during the spring, especially when warmer weather starts to poke its head back into our lives and summer vacation creeps closer and closer with every paper we write and tear we shed.

Soon enough, we find ourselves pursuing different methods to make the pain more tolerable and to distract ourselves from the never-ending workload. Picking up a yoga class might help, as might taking an extra nap during the week or even taking a hike through nature. No matter what coping method you use, one thing is certain: Joey Tribbiani from "Friends" is one of the few people who can relate to us in nearly any situation.

The lovable character from the popular show is a college student in many ways - broke, always hungry, slightly naive, thirsty for love and most of all, full of energy. Joey's sweet disposition, in more ways than one, is the perfect example of the way the majority of students feel by the time the middle of spring semester rolls around: tired, ready for change and broke.

1. Relaxing on spring break like:

2. Coming back to school and realizing how much you need to do.

3. When you and your friends are all out of money and are willing to eat anything that's under $10.

4. When you are willing to do anything for money.


5. When you "accidentally" miss your 8 a.m. for the third time.

6. When professors start to talk about preparing for finals.

7. When you and your friend manage to finish one assignment.

8. Trying to motivate your friends when they start to lose hope.

9. When professors schedule homework over the weekend.

10. When trying to look nice for class is no longer an option so you do the best you can to be somewhat presentable.

11. Coming to terms with your freshman 15.

12. When you still manage to pull the semester off with good grades.

Thank you Joey, for truly always understanding.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
