A regular office can be boring, repetitive in its work and did I mention boring? Thank goodness the amazing show The Office is nothing like a regular office. This comedy is funny, the people are over the top, and the boss is one of a kind. In other words, these characters can mirror what it is like to be a college student sometimes.

1. "Read it? I own it! But no I have not read it."

Every. Textbook. Ever.

2. "We’re not gonna die of radon. We’re gonna die of boredom."

Because no one wants to sit in a classroom taking notes for more than 20 minutes. Not even 20 minutes...

3. "I am Beyoncé, always."

4. "You know what? I’m sick of this. I’m sick of the disapproving little head shakes. If you think that’s going to have any effect on me, it will not."

When you have to admit what you REALLY got on a test to your parents...

5. "I knew that summer had to end sometime. It’s sad though. Because I had a great summer."

Even if we didn't have a great summer, it is probably better than attempting to read textbooks, write 10 page research papers and taking midterms and final exams.

6. "No! God please no! No! God! No! No! NOOOOOOOO!"

We all have these moments. Realizing you procrastinated too long, class isn't canceled, or once you finish a show on Netflix.

7. "That’s what she said!"

This was probably our first real sexual innuendo. But it never seems to go out of style.

8. "The rules of shotgun are very simple and very clear. The first person to shout shotgun when you are within the sight of the car gets the front seat. That’s how the game’s played. There are no exceptions for someone with a concussion."

This probably started when we were finally old enough to ride in the front seat of a car. But if you are not driving, you definitely run to the car and yell out shotgun as fast and as loud as you can.

9. "Maybe there is some sort of animal we can make a sacrifice to."

Anything to pass Spanish class....

10. "If there was a God, Ryan and I would be together by now."

Gosling or Reynolds. Either one would suffice.

11. "There is a god! And he has a plan for us after all."

That moment when you pass a test you forgot to study for or a paper you wrote in 2 hours.

12. "I feel like I’m dyin’ inside. I feel like Neve Campbell in Scream 2. She thinks she can go off to college and be happy, and then…the murderer comes back and starts killing off all her friends."

Finals week. Enough said.

13. "There are too many people on this earth. We need a new plague."

Trying to drive to campus or finding an elevator that isn't full before you're late.

14. "I’m not superstitious, but… I’m a little-stitious."

We are not about to break a mirror or walk under a latter when a test date is approaching.

15. "Sometimes I’ll start a sentence and I don’t even know where it’s going. I just hope I find it along the way."

Every single time we have a class discussion.

16. "I want people to be afraid of how much they love me."

17. "I’m running away from my responsibilities. And it feels good."

We may not hop on a train, but we do have Hulu and Netflix.

I went to a small high school, like 120-people-in-my-graduating-class small. It definitely had some good and some bad, and if you also went to a small high school, I’m sure you’ll relate to the things that I went through.

1. If something happens, everyone knows about it

Who hooked up with whom at the party? Yeah, heard about that an hour after it happened. You failed a test? Sorry, saw on Twitter last period. Facebook fight or, God forbid, real fight? It was on half the class’ Snapchat story half an hour ago. No matter what you do, someone will know about it.

Chandler Bing

I'm assuming that we've all heard of the hit 90's TV series, Friends, right? Who hasn't? Admittedly, I had pretty low expectations when I first started binge watching the show on Netflix, but I quickly became addicted.

Without a doubt, Chandler Bing is the most relatable character, and there isn't an episode where I don't find myself thinking, Yup, Iam definitely the Chandler of my friend group.

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!

Another day, another Elle Woods comment. Can’t us blondes get through the day without someone harping at us over the typical stereotypes about who we are? I never understood why a person was judged based upon the hair color they were born with, or the hair color they choose to have (unless you dye your hair blue like Kylie Jenner, I’m still trying to understand why that’s a trend). Nevertheless, as it should be assumed, not everyone is the same. Not all blondes like bright colors and Lilly Pulitzer, and not all blondes claim to identify with Marilyn Monroe. I think the best suggestion to give to people before they make such radical claims is to stop judging a book by its cover. Or in this case, stop judging a blonde by her hair color.
