You're graduating less than a year from now? Shut your face...

1. You realize you have to make an appointment with career services

Giphy

You really thought you could figure out what you want to do with your life on your own, but you can't.

2. You hear other people say they're graduating early (and feeling ready to) 

Giphy

You, on the other hand, don't even feel like you'll be ready to graduate after a normal four years.

3. You realize maybe your calling is to drop out and be a stripper!

Giphy

Nah, you actually really want to use your Communications major.

4. You're suddenly nostalgic about everything that's happened to you the last two and a half years (good and bad) 

Giphy

You kind of wish you could relive it all.

5. You feel a sudden burst of energy to work on your resume 

Giphy

You'll never be perkier and more prepared to work than you are today.

6. You feel the need to "dance out" all your woes

Giphy

Shake it off.

7. You realize you may need to get better at communicating, to, you know, fulfill your major's requirements

Giphy

Hell yeah!

8. You start convincing yourself of all the ways you've grown since starting college

Giphy

You're so fun! And college did that to you!

9. You think back to your dorkier, darker times...

Giphy

High school you? You don't know her. Or remember her.

10. And realize you're on the right path to adulthood 

Giphy

Woot!

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.

"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!
