18 Stages Of Being Obsessed With "Hamilton"
Rolling Stone

' Hamilton' is amazing and everyone should be obsessed with it. Anyone who correctly is obsessed knows that the stages of being obsessed are as follows.

1. Hearing the hype and not believing it.

“What’s the big deal, it's just another musical about an old guy.”

2. Listen to the first few songs, jam a bit.


“OK, this is pretty catchy. I’d listen to it again.”

3. Listen all the way through.

"Wow -- this is really great.”

4. Get caught up in the story.

“I clearly didn’t pay attention in elementary school. Who are these people? OMG, what's going to happen?”

5. Cry like a baby during the last song.

“Eliza -- OMG, she loved him so much.”

6. Repeat for days.

“This is absolutely amazing -- oh my god.”

7. Try to get all your friends to listen.

“Isn't this amazing? Here, listen to this one next. How are you not obsessed with this? What do you mean it's not that great."

8. Scour internet for every picture and small clip of the characters.

Ham4Ham shows are the best thing to ever happen.

“I just want to see the costumes and the dancing! I want to see the masterpiece!"

9. Cry about your inability to go see it.

“I just want to see it, what do you mean its sold out?”

10. Stalk way too far back on Lin’s Twitter and Tumblr pages.

“These are pure gold, he's my favorite person alive wow.”

11. Realize you're the annoying friend that is trying to get everyone hooked on the music.

“Come on, guys, this is amazing! Don't throw away your shot."

12. Randomly start quoting and thus singing the lyrics anytime a few words remind you of the music.

"What are you doing?"

"I am not throwing away my shot."

13. Listen to the music on repeat, having decide if you'd rather shuffle or listen to it all the way through for the real feels.

Dance it out, too.

14. Find someone else who shares your obsession.

“OMG, isn;t it amazing I'm obsessed. Yes, let's have a singing party and just sing "Hamilton" together." Y

15. Share everything to do with Hamilton on their wall.

Shoutout to Brianna -- you the real MVP.

16. Declare your hate for anyone who has gotten to see the show.

“We can’t be friends, sorry.”

17. Follow every Hamilton related twitter account and spend all of your days obsessed with Hamilton.

18. Continue the cycle of obsession and love for ever and ever and ever.

You get to check things off of your requirement checklist. It's an opportunity for a fresh start with new classes (which you tell yourself you'll never skip.) This process, which always starts out so optimistic, can get frustrating really quickly. Here are 25 thoughts you have when registering for classes.

10 Thoughts Of A 5th Year Senior

What about those of us who don't do it all in four years?

"College will be the best four years of your life" is a phrase that we have all heard growing up. College is painted as a magical place to us while we are in high school. A place you go to learn, meet your best friends and probably have the time of your life while all of this is going down. Four whirlwind years, where everything that you've known changes and you start to learn what it means to live on your own, have a job, etc. But what about those of us who don't do this all in four years? Major changes, hard courses, switching schools, career paths changing, these are just a handful of factors that could extend your four years to five, six or seven. There is nothing wrong with taking extra time to graduate, but returning as a fifth-year is a little different. Most of your best friends have most likely graduated and moved and while you may be one of the oldest undergraduates on campus, you might feel as awkward as a freshmen. A world that became home and comfortable to you is still there but it's slightly different than you've known it to be and you have to find a groove to fall into. These are thoughts you'll have as you look ahead to returning to your college campus, with a victory lap planned.

Aubrey Plaza is one of my favorite humans in Hollywood. She's honest, blunt, unapologetic, and hilarious. I just started my sophomore year of college, and found that some of her best moments can accurately describe the start of the school year.

1. When your advisor tells you that you should declare a major soon.

2. Seeing the lost and confused freshmen and remembering that was you a short year ago, and now being grateful you know the ins and outs of the campus.

3. Going to the involvement fair to sign up for more clubs knowing that you are already too involved.

4. When you actually do the reading required for the first class.

5. Seeing your friends for the first time since last semester.

6. When you're already drowning in homework during syllabus week.

7. Realizing you don't have the same excitement for classes as you did as a freshman.

8. Going home and seeing people from high school gets weirder the older you get.
