10 End Of Semester Reactions Told By 'Friends' Characters

In This Article:

Tis' the season for forgotten due dates and giving assignments the ole' college before heading home for break. We are stressed, we are tired, we are hungry, just want to go home and our favorite "Friends" characters have the perfect reactions.

1. When your professor changes a project due date without updating the syllabus 

Giphy

You've gone to every class and taken every note possible. But for some reason, your professor swears they told the class about a change in the syllabus.

2. Sitting through a class where your professor "teaches" by reading word for word from the powerpoint for the millionth time

Giphy

It is no surprise the professor is back at it again reading word for word off the Powerpoint slides with a million words on each slide. Did we expect something different? No, but we can still have hopes.

3. You finally get hit with the campus plague 

Giphy

You've tried to avoid your campus's rapidly-spreading cold, but you were unsuccessful. Congratulations, you are now the kid in class who never stops coughing and sniffling.

4. Avoiding everything by getting coffee

Giphy

You can tell yourself all you want that you're going to actually sit down and study.. until someone suggests getting coffee. All bets are officially off.

5. Your professor says your final isn't cumulative, there will be a curve, and they are dropping your lowest quiz grade

Giphy

These types of professors are rare to find while in college, but believe there are still kind souls out there. Be thankful and don't do anything to risk the professor changing their mind.

6. When you see someone having their third breakdown in the library during finals week 

Giphy

You are practically living in the library to study. Maybe, just maybe, you're on the "no talking" floor. But you see a lonely soul in the middle of their third breakdown. Just go ask if they're okay.

7. You haven't eaten, slept, studied, and you're running purely on high hopes and three coffees

Giphy

You're using all your strength to hold back the tears. You're not sure if they're because you're sleep deprived, hungry, or stressed to the max. But it is FINE. You're doing great!

8. Waiting until the night before to study for an exam

Giphy

Let's face it, if you don't know it while you're studying the night before, you probably won't remember it in six hours for the exam. Good luck, and do a full send.

9. "Sorry, you don't have anymore flex left."

Giphy

You've finally run out of flex dollars, and we all feel for you. Just hold out a little bit longer until you're home and maybe you'll find some money you forgot about!

10. Bye-bye school, hello home-cooked meals

Giphy

Not that you don't love waiting in line for sub-par pizza slices practically every day, but you are finally home and can snack and relax all you want. You finally finished the semester, and you don't have to see another textbook for a month. Enjoy it because you deserve it!

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
