Literally the cast of the show 'Friends.'

Back To School With The Help Of Some 'Friends'

For many of you, summer is the best time of the year. No school work and a lot of relaxation. Being home from the first year of college, I have many feelings on going back to school. Not only am I super excited, but also a little bit anxious. So, I thought what better way to tell it than with the "Friends" cast.

Super excited for what's to come within the next year. Excited to see your school friends that you've been away from for three months. Excited to get back to your home away from home.

Denial and sadness. Summer is over already?! Even though there are many excited feelings going on, there is a also denial that you have to go back to school. Back to reality...without your home friends or family or homecooked meals.

Anxious. As ready as you are to go back to school, there are also a lot of nerves that come with it. Another year away from family and friends on top of that all the stress of school work yet again. Getting ready for all nighters in the library!

Relived. It's about time! It feels like ages since I've been back on campus and I'm relived I get to start another chapter of college this year. Ready to meet new people and enjoy so many new experiences this year. Finally the time has come.

Ready to happily reunite with your school friends. After a long couple of months, getting ready to see all the faces you haven't seen in so long!

Ready to go out again. Excited to go out and have some fun with your friends just like last year all over again!

Ready to (try to) share food with your roommates, which doesn't always work out too well.

Ready to listen to your new professors who will engage you in learning and showing you all the knowledge you came to college looking to learn!

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

sisters

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.

If you’re anything like me, you love a good cup of coffee. My coffee always comes from Starbucks; I refuse to drink it from anywhere else. Over the years, it’s become one of my biggest addictions. So, if you are aware that you’re a Starbucks addict as well, or maybe you need to check to see if you’re an addict, here are seven ways to tell.

It can be overwhelming at times and it’s important to take a step a back and calmly think things over. Maybe gain some perspective. The following aren’t foolproof tips and may not apply to you, but I was able to find success with them (hope you do too!)
