Whether we consciously realize it or not, we think many of the same thoughts while scrolling through Facebook.

Most of the time, we might roll our eyes about the latest post that we see. Other times, we stick around for a little longer to look at someone’s profile that we forgot about.

The following 15 thoughts cross my mind during the time that I spend on Facebook each day:

1. Why did she comment on that post from seven years ago?

Please … I really don’t want to see what the 2011 version of myself thought about some obsolete trend.

2. *Sees new party photo* Wow, I guess she rallied after last night.

I wonder if she even went to bed or is on a continuous party circuit.

3. If he sends me ONE more game request …

The last game I played was Icy Tower in 2010. I’m really not interested.

4. People still create albums?

Am I the only one who still uses iPhoto and doesn’t share every moment of my life?

5. Oh, look, it’s the latest installment of her public diary.

I’m truly sorry that you think everyone around you is fake. I guarantee, though, that your Facebook diary is not coming off as any more authentic.

6. Wait, you can still poke people?

Certain features deserved to be left in the last decade.

7. Man, she's interested in every New York City event.

Not to mention, her travel fare must be outrageous.

8. I swear, I don’t remember liking this page.

Either that or I was incredibly naive because I wouldn’t knowingly like anything so blatantly sexist.

9. Yes, I do know that person, but I definitely don’t want to “friend” them.

The second cousin who I’ve never met? I’m sure he is as interested about my life as I am about his.

10. Oh, great, another Trump supporter.

Maybe it’s time to re-evaluate who I keep on here from high school.

11. Does Russia want me to see this ad?

*Squints suspiciously*

12. We get it, you’re going to be gainfully employed next year.

Something tells me that the announcement didn’t need to come in January, though.

13. ANOTHER graduate school ad?

Look, I get that I’ve searched them a lot, but Facebook is supposed to be my break from the harsh reality of my future.

14. Wow, he’s aged!

We graduated four years ago; how does he look like a different person already?

15. How many life journeys will she go on before she stops posting about them?

Seriously? I’m the only one tired of it?

Summer: a time (usually) free from school work and a time to relax with your friends and family. Maybe you go on a vacation or maybe you work all summer, but the time off really does help. When you're in college you become super close with so many people it's hard to think that you won't see many of them for three months. But, then you get that text saying, "Hey, clear your schedule next weekend, I'm coming up" and you begin to flip out. Here are the emotions you go through as your best friend makes her trip to your house.

Winter break is over, we're all back at our respective colleges, and the first week of classes is underway. This is a little bit how that week tends to go.

The professor starts to go over something more than the syllabus

You get homework assigned on the first day of class

There are multiple group projects on the syllabus

You learn attendance is mandatory and will be taken every class

Professor starts chatting about their personal life and what inspired them to teach this class

Participation is mandatory and you have to play "icebreaker games"

Everybody is going out because its 'syllabus week' but you're laying in bed watching Grey's Anatomy

Looking outside anytime past 8 PM every night of this week

Nobody actually has any idea what's happening this entire week

Syllabus week is over and you realize you actually have to try now...or not

Now it's time to get back into the REAL swing of things. Second semester is really here and we all have to deal with it.

Whether you specialized in ringing people up or preparing the food, if you worked at Panera Bread it holds a special place in your heart. Here are some signs that you worked at Panera in high school.

1. You own so many pairs of khaki pants you don’t even know what to do with them

Definitely the worst part about working at Panera was the uniform and having someone cute come in. Please don’t look at me in my hat.

7 Ways to Make Your Language More Transgender and Nonbinary Inclusive

With more people becoming aware of transgender and non-binary people, there have been a lot of questions circulating online and elsewhere about how to be more inclusive. Language is very important in making a space safer for trans and non-binary individuals. With language, there is an established and built-in measure of whether a place could be safe or unsafe. If the wrong language is used, the place is unsafe and shows a lack of education on trans and non-binary issues. With the right language and education, there can be more safe spaces for trans and non-binary people to exist without feeling the need to hide their identities or feel threatened for merely existing.
