15 Times ABC's 'The Goldbergs' Perfectly Described College Life

The Goldbergs is a family sitcom set back in the 1980's. It focuses on, obviously, the Goldberg family and all of their adventures. A smothering mother, a dad who wants some peace and quiet, a daughter who can't wait for college, a son who thinks he's a sports superstar, and the youngest son who filmed it all.

Adam Goldberg, the youngest child, who produced the show and whose family this is based off of, uses real clips of his family from the 80's to get the inspiration for the show. This show is a refreshing sitcom that shows a normal family with issues but at the end of the day still all love each other.

I love this show so much that I thought what better than to mix the Goldberg's family reactions and college life together. So, here are 15 times The Goldbergs demonstrated how crazy college life is.

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!

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.

But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.

Thanksgiving break is over and Christmas is just around the corner and that means, for most college students, one hellish thing — finals week. It's the one time of year in which the library becomes over populated and mental breakdowns are most frequent. There is no way to avoid it or a cure for the pain that it brings.

To prove it, here are just a few of the many deranged thoughts that go through a college student's mind during finals week.

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.
