18 "New Girl" Quotes That Sum Up College

There are few television shows that are as honest, hilarious, and to the point as New Girl. The humorous banter between the characters on this show seem to always describe a variety of situations in life. I have found that in the five seasons that I have seen so far, I am always kept laughing. Hopefully these quotes can help you laugh about some of the all too real things that happen at some point during the college experience.


1. When walking by the tables at the student organization fair during welcome week

"Oh my gosh, look, it's food! I love food. I can't even remember what we were talking about."


2. When pay day is too far away.

"Why can't I have the things that I want?"


3. When you fail to submit that assignment at 11:59 P.M.

"Schmidt happens."


4. Preparing for the most difficult semester of your academic career

"I know this isn't going to end well, but the middle is gonna be awesome."


5. When you have an argument with your roommate

"I know where you live!"

"And I live where you live!"



6. What every professor thinks halfway through the semester

"You have so many sweatpants! You need to buy normal pants!


7. When you need to make a 105 on the final to pass the class

"I want magic, is that so bad?"


8. When you tell your friends about your workout

"My arms are so sore from doing so many push-ups."

"That seems like a lie."


9. When the dining hall is closed but you still have to eat

"Get a fork, man!"

"I've got two good forks at the end of my arms!"



10. When you're in an interview and asked to talk about your skills

"I know Word. And I can open a document."


11. When you haven't done laundry in a while

"I'd give you a hug, but my shirt smells pretty weird today."


12. When you've had a rough day

"I just wanted to listen to Taylor Swift alone!"


13. When finals week hits

"I'm not convinced I know how to read, I've just memorized a lot of words."


14. When more than just your major is undecided

"Nick doesn’t have a life plan. He doesn’t have a day plan. I once found a note that he wrote to himself that said put on pants."


15. When life is an emotional rollercoaster

"If we were supposed to talk about feelings they would be called talkings."


16. When your friend group becomes your second family

"Well, I guess I can't hide my crazy."


17. When you make it to summer break

"Can we just take a moment to celebrate me?"


18. When you realize you're on the road to adulthood

"It's a weird life, but it's where I'm at right now."

You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?
