Nothing can suck more than moving. Don't get me wrong, I love moving to new places and experiencing new things, but the actual move sucks. There are boxes stacked up everywhere, you have to find out where everything goes, sometimes you have to condense, and it is just a lot of work.

For those who are able to hire movers, you guys are lucky and got the going up and down the stairs part out the way. I have been moving most of my life, and it is no cakewalk.

Here are some thoughts most people had while moving:

1. "Why do I have so much stuff?"

2. "Where can I get boxes?"

3. "Who used all the packing tape?"

4. "Why does it have to be so hot?"

5. "Why are there so many stairs?"

6. "I hope we don't have crappy neighbors."

7. "Man, the parking sucks here."

8. "Do I even need that?"

9. "I'll put that to the side for now."

10. "I might need that in the unforeseeable future... Maybe."

11. "Could this fit in the truck?"

12. "How far is it from my job?"

13. "This is not the time to be sentimental about things."

14. Wow, I have so much garbage.

15. "I haven't worn that in the past two years."

16. "Never knew I can drink this much water."

17. "Is there any food places near me?"

18. "I am just gonna take a little break."

19. "Okay, that break took way longer than expected.

20. "Can we have a food break?"

21. "Why am I moving again?"

22. "I wonder if my friends will help me."

23. "I wonder how much I can carry at once."

24. "I better be in good shape after this."

25. "This is a true workout."

26. "Why am I sweating so much?"

27. "Hey! I found that thing I lost years ago!"

28. *Starts going through things from your childhood*

29. "Ugh, I hate the feeling of dried sweat."

30. "I am going to promise myself to be more organized in the new place."

31. "There seems to be cleaning than moving."

32. "I appreciate everyone who is helping me move."

33. "Yes, I promise the housewarming party is going to be awesome."

34. "If only I could figure out where everything goes."

35. "This places looks so bare."

36. "My body hurts so much."

37. "I am just going to sleep on the mattress today, and then set up the bed tomorrow."

38. "Just leave the boxes anywhere, I will have to move it anyway."

39. "Leave a path to the kitchen, bedroom, and bathroom. The necessities."

40. "Well, the move is done."

41. "Ugh, time to unpack."

42. "I should probably find my clothes."

43. "Maybe tomorrow would be easier."

44. "If I lay here for 10 minutes, it will convince me to start moving."

45. "...Or it can make me more tired."

46. "No! I have to get something done at least."

47. "I can fix the kitchen! I need food!"

48. "I still feel tired"

49. "Oh, look, it is night time now."

50. "I'll just pick it up again tomorrow."

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.
