The first week back at college is unlike any other. There's tons of freshman getting lost and seniors panicking about graduation. You can't walk to class without someone yelling about joining a club you've never heard of. It's basically straight up chaos. Here's what most people are thinking:

1. Where am I going??

Even if it's your junior or senior year, you're bound to have a class in a room you've never seen before. Just because you know where the building is does not mean you know how to get to the room!

2. OMG I MISSED YOUUU

*Insert classic girls screaming about how much they missed each other* I'm totally guilty of this....

3. Where's *insert friend's name here*?

What do you mean they went abroad????? oops.

4. They better not start lecturing the first day

Unfortunately, my school doesn't understand the concept of sylly week...

5. I miss my mom's cooking

As much as I love getting to have all of my meals with my friends, nothing beats my mom's meatballs and sauce.

6. I need more Command Hooks!

You can never have too many, trust me.

7. Why are people so loud??

Ahhhh the joys of dorm-living. Just because you and your roommate want to get 8 hours of sleep doesn't mean someone isn't going to play music at 3 a.m..

8. Who's throwing?

No, nothing is physically being thrown around, but you know people are eager to get back out there.

9. I know I learned this last semester, but....

Summer has this magical ability to erase a few months of studying, gotta hate cumulative material.

10. I miss my dog already

This might be the most common phrase I hear. This is usually preceded by an Instagram story captioned "The hardest goodbye".

11. I'm really going to stay on top of my classes this semester!

We say it every time, and who knows? Maybe this semester will be different and I'll be on top of things at least through midterms.

We're all in this together, have a great semester!

Now that Halloween is over, it's time to focus on the Holiday Season. Don't get me wrong, I think Thanksgiving is great and can't wait for it, but nothing gives me greater joy than watching Freeform's 25 Days of Christmas, lighting peppermint scented candles, decking the halls, and baking gingerbread cookies. So while we approach the greatest time of the year, let's watch the 15 best Christmas movies of all time.

6 Signs You Are An English Major

There are various stereotypes about college students, most of which revolve around the concept of your major. Unfortunately, we often let stereotypes precede our own judgments, and we take what information is immediately available to us rather than forming our own opinions after considerable reflection. If I got a dollar for every time my friends have made a joke about my major I could pay my tuition. One stereotype on campus is the sensitive, overly critical and rigid English major. Here are six telltale signs you are one of them.

When you were little, your parents probably told you television makes your brain rot so you wouldn't watch it for twelve straight hours. However, I feel we can learn some pretty valuable stuff from television shows. "The Office," while a comedy, has some pretty teachable moments thrown in there. You may not know how to react in a situation where a co-worker does something crazy (like put your office supplies in jello) but thanks to "The Office," now you'll have an idea how to behave ifsomething like that should happen.

Here are just a few of the things that religious Office watchers can expect to learn.
