If you're in college, you know when April comes its a major struggle to finish the semester for so many reasons. From mean professors to the nice weather, everything just seems to be working against you doing well in your classes in April. The end of spring semester is so much tougher and if you don't realize it now you probably will when you get your final grades. These are just a few things that seem to make college in April so difficult for us college students.

Three exams, four quizzes, and three group projects

Professors like to save all of the tests, quizzes and projects for the end of the semester, making a college student's life similar to Hell in April. It feels almost like the work is never going to end.

You get practically no sleep

Due to all of the projects, tests and homework in April, sleep is not even an option some nights. Sometimes you just have to choose between getting an A in a class or sleeping that night.

Your professor decides the final is cumulative

Although they never said it before, the professor informs the class that the final is going to be cumulative, which means you are going to have to study for way longer than you had originally planned.

That professor that doesn't post grades finally does, and you realize you aren't doing as well as you thought.

This is the worst thing that could happen to a college student. Not knowing how you're doing in class is a really stressful thing for us. Besides, isn't it the professor's job to post our grades so we know how we are doing?

The weather is finally nice and you just want to stay outside

After a long, cold winter, it finally is starting to warm up making sitting in the library and studying all day almost impossible. Just looking outside the library windows makes you unmotivated.

April is a struggle for all college students, because the semester is coming to an end, and professors decide to put a lot of stress on students at this time. But don't worry, because the semester is almost over and summer is right around the corner.

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.
