Ah, junior year. We are more than halfway there but we still have a little bit until graduation. It all went by too fast. But being a junior definitely feels different.


1. Finally living with your best friends.

After two years of horrible roommates, I can finally say I love mine. Its so nice not having to travel to another building just to see them.

2. Being called an upperclassman.

Its awesome yet terrifying that we are finally upperclassmen. I mean freshman year was only 2 years ago right?

3. Not having to eat on campus 24/7

4. Not having to worry about waiting for the shuttle.


The year has come that we don’t have to leave our cars parked at Pioneer Gardens or Oakwood. We don’t don’t have to worry about being ready an hour early for class just to catch the shuttle, we can now leave with 15 minutes to spear which is just enough time to stop at outtakes.

5. Missing the shuttles because parking sucks.

From time to time we do in fact miss the shuttles because the parking situation is just awful. No matter what time of day it is, you just can’t get lucky finding a spot.

6. Waiting to be 21 so you can finally go to Reds.

It is the year we have been waiting for since we step foot on Sacred Hearts campus 2 years ago. After seeing several snap chats and Instagram posts from the senior class last year it has made us that more excited to finally go. The countdown is on!

7. Not wanting to be a senior next year.


As much as we hate saying it, most of us are graduating next year. Whether we like it or not its gonna happen. We are dreading the day because after it we won’t be spending everyday with our college BFFs.

8. Cramming in all your classes so you can graduate on time.

Graduation maybe more than a year away but we have many classes to worry about before it gets here. Junior year is probably the most stressful yet considering we now have three semesters to squeeze in the rest of our required or core classes.

I think the hardest thing about going away to college is figuring out how to become an adult. Leaving a household where your parents took care of literally everything (thanks, Mom!) and suddenly becoming your own boss is overwhelming. I feel like I'm doing a pretty good job of being a grown-up, but once in awhile I do something that really makes me feel like I'm #adulting. Twenty-somethings know what I'm talking about.

I went to a small high school, like 120-people-in-my-graduating-class small. It definitely had some good and some bad, and if you also went to a small high school, I’m sure you’ll relate to the things that I went through.

1. If something happens, everyone knows about it

Who hooked up with whom at the party? Yeah, heard about that an hour after it happened. You failed a test? Sorry, saw on Twitter last period. Facebook fight or, God forbid, real fight? It was on half the class’ Snapchat story half an hour ago. No matter what you do, someone will know about it.

Chandler Bing

I'm assuming that we've all heard of the hit 90's TV series, Friends, right? Who hasn't? Admittedly, I had pretty low expectations when I first started binge watching the show on Netflix, but I quickly became addicted.

Without a doubt, Chandler Bing is the most relatable character, and there isn't an episode where I don't find myself thinking, Yup, Iam definitely the Chandler of my friend group.

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!
