15 Times "The Office" Explained Post Spring Break For College Students
TribZap

Let’s face it. It’s the time of year again where everything seems to be speeding up—professors are loading you down with homework and assignments, clubs and other extracurriculars are trying to plan the last big event of the year, you’re trying to find a good summer internship or job that will look great on your resume, or you’re just trying to finish a good show on Netflix before it is replaced by something mediocre.

(I’m only slightly bitter Scrubs is leaving Netflix, as you can probably tell.)

But students on campuses far and wide are all struggling with the same things right about now. Whether it’s the warmth of summer looming ahead, the amount of stuff we’ve got to do, or just the very simple fact that there’s less than one month of school left before break, our minds are already trying to board that plane to our happy place.

Here are 15 things you know and feel during this time of year as a college student, as told by The Office.

1. When you’re running out of excused skips in your classes.

2. When your meal plan is getting low on swipes/money.

3. When you really just want to take a nap, but you have 2349786394578 other things to do.

4. When your friends ask you to go out, but even that is losing its appeal because it means leaving the comfort of your room.

5. When you get a taste of summer, be it in temperature or the sun peeking out from behind clouds.

6. When professors start talking about final projects and exams.

7. When you remember you’re going to have to leave your friends and be separated from them for a whole THREE MONTHS.

8. When your professors realize that they’ve slacked off during the first half of the semester and are suddenly giving you millions of assignments to fulfill their teaching criteria.

9. When you get more than 4 hours of sleep on a weekday.

10. When you’re applying for internships and are just plain hoping you get something.

11. When you don’t even bother doing the reading anymore because there’s one more month of this stupid class left, and you’re going to sell the textbook anyway.


12. When you look at your current grades and calculate what you need to pass the final and the class.

13. When you realize you’ve blown most of your savings trying to do fun stuff around your school to get your mind off of classes.


14. When it's all just too much.


15. When you study hard and kill your finals, and it's finally summer!

The Great Christmas Movie Debate

"A Christmas Story" is the star on top of the tree.

The Great Christmas Movie Debate
Mental Floss

One staple of the Christmas season is sitting around the television watching a Christmas movie with family and friends. But of the seemingly hundreds of movies, which one is the star on the tree? Some share stories of Santa to children ("Santa Claus Is Coming to Town"), others want to spread the Christmas joy to adults ("It's a Wonderful Life"), and a select few are made to get laughs ("Elf"). All good movies, but merely ornaments on the Christmas tree of the best movies. What tops the tree is a movie that bridges the gap between these three movies, and makes it a great watch for anyone who chooses to watch it. Enter the timeless Christmas classic, "A Christmas Story." Created in 1983, this movie holds the tradition of capturing both young and old eyes for 24 straight hours on its Christmas Day marathon. It gets the most coverage out of all holiday movies, but the sheer amount of times it's on television does not make it the greatest. Why is it,
then? A Christmas Story does not try to tell the tale of a Christmas miracle or use Christmas magic to move the story. What it does do though is tell the real story of Christmas. It is relatable and brings out the unmatched excitement of children on Christmas in everyone who watches. Every one becomes a child again when they watch "A Christmas Story."

It's the most wonderful time of the year! Christmas is one of my personal favorite holidays because of the Christmas traditions my family upholds generation after generation. After talking to a few of my friends at college, I realized that a lot of them don't really have "Christmas traditions" in their family, and I want to help change that. Here's a list of Christmas traditions that my family does, and anyone can incorporate into their family as well!

It’s here; that time of year when college students turn into preschoolers again. We cry for our mothers, eat everything in sight, and whine when we don’t get our way.

Everyone has to take them, and yes, unfortunately, they are inevitable. But just because they are here and inevitable does not mean they’re peaches and cream and full of rainbows. Surviving them is a must, and the following five phases are a reality for all majors from business to art, nursing to history.
