College as told by Broadway Musicals

Whether you are a freshman just starting out or a senior who is almost done, Broadway musicals have a certain way of explaining just how you are feeling at any certain moment.

If I know anything, it is that you can learn a lot from Broadway musicals. From American history in Hamilton and Newsies to life lessons from Dear Evan Hansen and Legally Blonde. One thing I have found recently, however, from watching so many Broadway musicals is that they do a really good job of explaining exactly what college life is like. Whether you are a freshman just starting out or a senior who is almost done, Broadway musicals have a certain way of explaining just how you are feeling at any certain moment. So if you need a break from studying or you just need a good laugh to get through the stress, here is just a few times when Broadway musical pretty explained what you were thinking or what you needed to say and did not know how to put into words. (Note some images are not from Broadway musical, but these shows have been Broadway musicals at one time.)

1. When you think a professor is out to get you / destroy your life and you decide to rebel but only in your head because they're scary and you don't a worse grade.

2. When you're ready to give up on life and become a hobo because you're so homesick and you know of a fact you're going to fail at life.

3. When one of your professor's goes through the power point way too fast and no one in your class was able to keep up either so you're totally lost.

4. When you given into your procrastination for too long and you finally decide to stop wasting time and change your ways.

5. When you unexpectedly get into an easy class that you didn't expect to have and you don't have anything to do in it. #Blessed

6. When one of your classes is canceled and you can sleep in an extra hour, which you seriously need because you stayed up way too late the night before "studying.

7. When you get put in a group with a bunch of people who won't do anything and you end up doing all the work yourself.

8. When your teacher claims she/he will have something graded by the end of the week, but it's Sunday night and you're still obsessively checked Blackboard finally realizing that your teacher full of lies.

9. When you do better on a test than you previously thought and now you no longer believe that you're going to fail out of college and die.

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

College is a great place to meet people, especially through Greek life. If you look closely at sororities, you'll quickly see there are many different types of girls you will meet.

1. The Legacy.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September.
