25 Times The Office Was Spot On About Life

Because there's a little bit of Michael Scott in all of us.

25 Times The Office Was Spot On About Life

1. When you frequently speak your mind but many people are offended

2. When the endless amount of homework, errands, chores, prior commitments, etc. finally gets to you but you have something better in mind, because you always have something better in mind

3. When you give up on all parts of your life because functioning as a human has finally gotten too hard


4. When your friends hang out without you ONE TIME

5. And your face exactly when the same friends bring up something embarrassing from your past

6. So then you just think maybe you need some new friends

7. But then you realize you actually have such a strong love for these same friends

8. You when some really cute stranger does a really nice thing for you like holding the door

9. But then you realize someone really cute doing something really nice for you doesn't mean marriage

10. And then you think, "Maybe I'm destined to be alone forever"

11. Your exact response when you come into contact with the most annoying person you have ever met

12. And you when your parents force you to go to a family gathering you really don't care about

13. When you hit rock bottom and you try to convince yourself that you're okay but clearly you're totally not


14. That one time you passed that final with flying colors after suffering a whole semester with an awful professor

15. Every time you order a 10 piece McNugget

16. And you after proving everyone wrong after doing the thing they said you couldn't do

17. When you check your bank account and there's $1.43 to your name

18. And when you try to relate with a group of people about something you have no idea about because you really just want to fit in


19. You after that one time you tried to help your friend with a serious problem and they just shot down your advice

20. You after the single time you ever acted responsibly in a serious situation

21. After the off-chance you do or say something really intellectual, but you actually googled it/heard someone else say it


22. You at 10 a.m., 3 p.m., and 9 p.m. of each day


23. When it comes to work, school, a social life, being normal..

24. You when people post their opposing political views on social media

25. And finally, an accurate representation of your entire life on a daily basis

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

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?
