14 Times Chandler Bing Summarized A Spring Semester In The South

Who better to describe the cynicism that flavors each moment of spring semester better than Chandler Bing?

Spring semester is distinctly different from fall semester. You've got all new classes, you just got back from Christmas, and this is when the cold weather really hits. It seems to rush by really quickly, and the bright optimism with which you started fall semester morphs into a more routine feel. Especially here in the South, where snow days can throw off your ability to "get into the swing of things," here's some quotes from our favorite sarcastic "Friends" star that can describe spring semester.

1. When you start adopting the grandma lifestyle.

First semester you go to football games, events, "first" meetings. Second semester, staying in sounds like a great idea.

2. When taking online tests.

When Blackboard gives you that automatically generated score.

3. When you make dinner plans with your roommate.

Meal plans might have made me forget what a stove was if I didn't use one for classes.

4. When you forget how to meet new people.

A.k.a. that one awkward social interaction that leaves you questioning how you ever made friends.

5. When you go to your hardest class of the semester.

Well, I participated.

6. When you're honest about your workout habits.

Just a few more minutes.

7. When you're struggling with motivation for your non-major classes.

Fall semester finds you fresh and ready to learn. Spring semester, you start questioning every assignment that isn't directly relevant to your major.

8. When you start comparing yourself to others.

Welp.

9. When Alabama weather happens.

At least two pairs of pants may be merited when walking to class in sub-freezing temps.

10. When you comfort yourself as to why you're still single.

I mean, the quiz said so.

11. When you spend the majority of Sunday napping.

Sundays are for church, brunch at the caf, and naps.

12. When you're supposed to have everything figured out.

You can explain your plans to your family and friends, but whenever you have to write about it for something that matters...

13. When campus reopens after a snow day(s) and you have to do all the things.

Plus it's cold.

14. When you think about how you might actually miss this place when the semester's over.

Let's not think about that; let's just keep hoping for more

I thought senioritis in high school was rough until I became a college senior about to go into the real world. I'm supposed to have everything figured out, right? I mean I went through four years of tough classes and serious self-searching (and crying). What I found overall was Senioritis sneaking up on me.

College is filled with many things, and we're so often lectured to make the right decisions as we head out on our own into the college life. But sometimes it's necessary to indulge in some guilty pleasures as well as just doing things because you can. And honestly, a lot of the time it's inevitable. College is no piece of cake that's for sure, so it's okay to do some things you deep down know you shouldn't....once in a while anyways.
