Being a college student is certainly a unique experience and sometimes it takes an unique person to be able to explain the struggles and accomplishments that come along the way. Behold, Michael Scott, regional manager of the Dunder Mifflin Scranton branch. Some of his words and moments as the "World's Best Bost" can easily relate to living life as a college student. Here are a few of the best:

1. Watching the professor put up the next slide one minute before class ends

It's a moment of panic, disappointment, and anger all mixed into one.

2. Finding out you passed a test you thought you failed for sure

It may only have been by one point, but that's progress.

3. Telling yourself that you're going to work all night, but then you watch "The Office" instead

It's not necessarily a bad thing, as long as you finished that paper that's due tomorrow.

4. Seeing your best friend after they skipped class the other day

I'm not mad at you personally; I'm mad that you left me in there all alone.

5. Sitting through any lecture

Big words at 8AM never make any sense.

6. When people are trying to get you to pay their tuition

It's a common joke among college students that should never be taken seriously.

7. Finally getting the chance to go out on a food run

Nothing is better than you and your bestie breaking free to grab some burgers and frozen yogurt.

8. Finding out the class you need is only offered at 8AM

This is a moment that should never be wished upon anyone, not even your worst enemy.

9. Trying to make the length requirements on a paper

You just have to add a ton of fancy words and hope for the best.

10. Remembering that part of your grade is participation and attentiveness in class

Suddenly you perk up, wipe the drool from your mouth, and scribble something in your notebook.

12. Trying to be the life of the party on the weekends

It's time to let loose, go crazy, and regret it all Monday morning.

13. Remembering that napping wasn't part of your schedule today

Because a 15 minute cat-nap always turns into an hour long snooze.

14. Making it to the end of the semester in one piece

Only a few tears were shed along the way, but you made it!

As many college students say, college is a series of ups and downs, good days and bad days, challenges and achievements. Whenever the pressure is getting to be too much, put down the textbook and flip on your favorite show. Maybe it's about a paper company in Scranton, and maybe it isn't. But take the time to relax, get inspired, and then hopefully find your way back to your work. If not, there's always tomorrow!

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
