College Explained By "Friends"

Here's part four in the "Friends" series! We've been talking about just how similar college life is to the TV show "Friends." These are some more examples of just how alike our lives actually are.

1. After this week, there will be four weeks until the start of winter break! Can you believe it? Monica understands. We always knew you were our favorite, Mon.

2. This word has become far too familiar to some of us...as well as that good ole toilet in the bathroom.

3. Pheobe knows all too well what it's like for her friends to make plans and not include her, telling her they're doing something else. It's all good, though. You're going to make the Dean's list and they aren't.

4. So, There's the age old problem of deciding between going to class because your instructor said it was important for you to be there, or skipping that class to do homework for another class, that's essential to do so you don't fall behind. Issues like these give you a panic attack, and just...

5. When you first set foot on campus, you've got to admit, you were taken back by all of these pretty boys. New environment, new people, what's not to love? In fact, the boy at the registration table may have just stopped your heart.

6. You mumble this phrase over and over as you wake up ten minutes before your 8 a.m.:

7. Oh look, young Brad Pitt. If 'I hate you' is a phrase that really means 'I love you' at a drunken frat party, WE HATE YOU TOO BRAD!

8. There are times when you're under extreme amount of pressure, probably from finals or midterms, when some of your friends may think it's okay to laugh, joke and be loud, and you wonder...

But don't worry! we'll love you after our mental breakdown!

9. Has anyone ever gone to class, and then the professor told you to get out the homework that was due that you forgot was due?

No? just me?

10. And finally, Here are a collection of gifs with a Thanksgiving theme, seeing that Thanksgiving is three weeks away. Can you smell the turkey yet?! I love Thanksgiving. I think I need to invest in some maternity pants for the big day. I mean, they give, stretch and they allow for maximum food storage.

When you FINALLY sit down at your plate and look at it, you grin. You can defeat it. You're like...Thanksgiving royalty!

And then comes that time, about halfway through your second plate, when you think you can do it. You've tried pacing yourself, you're confident, and then...this happens.

Well, maybe next year.

Hope y'all enjoyed this week! See you next week with the epic conclusion!

In honor of Mother’s Day, I have been thinking of all the things my mom does for my family and me. Although I couldn’t write nearly all of them, here are a few things that moms do for us.

They find that shirt that’s right in front of you, but just you can’t seem to find.

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
