21 Signs You’re A Night Owl

Let's face it. There are some of us out there that just aren't morning people — and if you're anything like me, you will literally kill the person who dares to wake you up before 10 a.m. on any day of the week. College has turned you into some sort of creature, and those habits are hard to break. You're also probably reading this right now at 2 a.m., wide awake, and thinking to yourself, "Da*n ... this is #relatable."


1. You're told to meet at breakfast at 10 a.m. and inside you start crying. You might even produce some physical tears, too.

2. You're actually not a big fan of breakfast foods.

3. But you ARE addicted to coffee.

4. You've experienced the “boring" side of social media.

5. You don't know what morning classes are like.

6. You consider Friday as a part of your weekend and forget that people actually have class on Friday.

7. You know that the most meaningful conversations happen past midnight.

8. Your best work gets accomplished between the hours of 1-3 a.m.

9. Your best friend is Netflix.

10. Speaking of your bestie — you've probably seen the “Are you still watching?" message too many times to count.

11. Your friends and family know not to talk to you in the morning until you have had your cup of coffee.

12. You never actually have three meals a day.

13. You're a pro at the whole “midnight snack" thing, though.

14. You've self-diagnosed yourself with insomnia on more than one occasion.

15. You never actually get more than 5-6 hours of sleep a night.

16. The thought of getting a “real" job after college scares the crap out of you solely based on the fact that you can't sleep in.

17. You've probably googled “jobs that require late hours" on more than one occasion.

18. You're secretly just a night owl because you love the peace and quiet that is in the air when everyone else you live with is asleep.

19. You face the dilemma every night of posting something on social media at 4 a.m. and not wanting to be judged for it.

20. The best part — hands down — is being able to see the sunset and watching the sunrise.

21. No matter how hard you try, you can't seem to get your sleeping schedule back to normal.

Creating your schedule for the upcoming semester can be an exciting process. You have the control to decide if you want to have class two-days a week or five-days a week. 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.

You can't say that no one told you life was gonna be this way.

friends

In the 12 years since it went off the air, "Friends" continues to be adored by millions. The show that gave generations unrealistic expectations about love (or should I say lobsters?) and New York City apartments had a charming cast of characters that everyone could relate to at some point or another. Here are 17 times Ross, Monica, Joey, Chandler, Phoebe and Rachel accurately described life.

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.
