In This Article:

If you live in, around, or even near the city of Atlanta, there is one thing you have in common with the people you live around: you HATE rush hour. Hours and hours of simply sitting in the car, just trying to get home from work, a trip, or whatever you chose to do that day, are what you dread most in life. Here are the five stages of sitting through rush traffic as told by the cast of "New Girl"!

Denial 

Giphy

You get off the exit and see the pool of cars, back to back, not even moving an inch... it can't be real. Can it?

Anger

Giphy

Now you are in that pool of cars, looking around at all the people around you wondering why they all decided to go the exact same way as you and the rest of the entire city.

Bargaining 

Giphy

We have reached the point where you are looking around at the surrounding cars thinking: "OK, guys, let's all work together!! If you can just let me in then we will all be one step closer to getting where we need to go!"

Depression

Giphy

Now you are thinking about how you never asked for this and would give anything to be out of that dang car!

Acceptance 

Giphy

You have finally reached the point where you know there is nothing you can do to make this better, so why not turn up your music and enjoy some quality "me-time."

Rush hour is never fun, but going through it is worthwhile when you finally reach your destination, so buckle up and enjoy the ride!

College is a crazy, beautiful, amazing whirlwind. It is highly popularized in television and movies, but not necessarily in the most accurate way. Yes, there's frats, dingy dorms, raging house parties—but there's also a lot that people fail to mention.

1. If you thought that you knew how to study, you're wrong.

All of your classes aren't taught every day, so professors aren't on your case constantly about reading and memorizing material. Once you get back that "questionable" first exam grade, you'll kick it into high gear and figure out what works for you

I've been a bleach blonde for over a year now, and let me tell you, it is a lifestyle. More hair appointments, longer showers, and special shampoo. But it is totally worth it!

1. Mentally preparing yourself to convince your hair dresser that white is the way to go.

2. Or the anxiety of what could go wrong by bleaching your hair at home.

3. You could either become a ginger

4. Or a pixie

5. The face you make in the mirror when you take off your towel to unveil the perfect white strands.

6. Taking a million selfies the day you bleached it, because you know your roots will be back in literally 2 days.

7. Having to get bangs or a big chop because your hair is so damaged.

8. Having orange highlights in between touch-ups.

9. Going out for a drink afterwards to debut your updated look.

Despite the struggles, you love your platinum blonde hair! You make sure Instagram knows it, too. You don't need a filter, because the color is flawless by itself!

Finals: just thinking about them gives you anxiety. Only two weeks separate you from summer, but they're the longest of the semester. There's a familiarity to this season, now that you have had so many testing cycles under your belt. But that doesn't quell the ever present stress to pass your finals and your classes. Even better, as a package deal during these wonderful weeks, you get to wake up early to study and you get to take exams that can begin anytime from 7 A.M. to 7 P.M. Now that we have established that this week is not fun, here are some super relatable moments that punctuate finals week.

I've been at this college thing for almost three and a half years, and while I thought that high school was truly the lowest point of my existence, I'm beginning to realize that it was a walk in the park. Like, I miss the days when the biggest white lie I told my parents was my made up excuse about being late for fourth period. These days, the white lies are a tad more complex, and as ashamed as I am to admit it, I've definitely told a few of these.
