Going To The Gym, As Told By Joey Tribbiani

Whether you go to the gym looking like you walked straight out of a lululemon catalogue (#goals, am I right?), or you show up in a massive t-shirt and Nike shorts; whether you exercise daily, or you go maybe once a month if you're feeling extra motivated; we all have probably experienced a workout like this one:

1. You're about to hit the gym, and you're dressed and ready to get your sweat on.

2. You walk in and spot Ryan Gosling's twin at the squat rack, and you pat yourself on the back for going to the gym at this time (#blessed).

3. Then he notices you totally checking him out casually eyeing him, so you do your best to look like Gigi Hadid at the gym play it cool and act natural. *stand up straighter and flex the six pack you wish you had*

4. Okay time to start your workout. Now, where to begin... Should you lift? Hit the StairMaster? Try that new spin bike? Decisions, decisions...

5. You decide to run on the treadmill since they have TVs attached to them. At least you can Keep Up with the Kardashians while on this torture machine.

6. "Let's make this workout interesting, I'll race the person next to me because they totally look like they've run a few marathons." (i.e. they've been running for 40 minutes and haven't died yet)

7. You feel good about your progress, and you're thinking: "okay I've definitely run at least a mile at this point." Then you look at the clock, and you realize you've only been running for 4 minutes and have gone .36 miles.

8. "You got this! Think of all the pizza you can eat after you're done." 1 mile = 1 slice of pizza, right?

9. You look around for some good people watching, and you see someone who could pass for The Rock chest pressing what looks like 3x your body weight. You try not to audibly gasp watching this because how is it even possible for someone to lift that much?

10. Then you spot Ryan Gosling's twin again, and now he's doing pull-ups. *pretend to look like you're enjoying your workout when he looks over at you*

11. Alright, time to look at how much time has passed, you're definitely close to your 30 minute goal (you spent at least 4 minutes gazing in awe glancing over at Ryan Gosling doing pull-ups). JK it's only been 14 minutes.


12. You hit the 3 mile mark, and you feel unstoppable. "Yeah, so can Ryan Gosling come over here to give me a medal for this...?"

13. You finally get to 20 minutes, and you decide to cut your workout short. You'd much rather look like Kim K than T Swift anyways.

14. You go over to the mats to stretch after your cool-down. You pretend like you know what you're doing; you did hot yoga that one time, so you're basically an expert at this.

15. You're finally ready to leave the gym, and you can't wait to get some food in your system, and after that tough workout, you've totally earned it.

And you'll probably do the same thing next week in hopes that you'll see Ryan Gosling there again.

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.

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.
