Junior Year Of College, As Told By Rachel Green

Junior year. The year you feel like you really have to enjoy because college is almost at its end. Just one more year and you're off to the real world. Who would've thought that it would come this fast?

The third year of college is the year everything starts to pick up a little. Your workload gets a lot tougher, you're in the library longer, and you have to start thinking about your future career, which is more than a little scary. But junior year does have its perks, like turning 21 and finally being able to go to the bars instead of drinking in fraternity basements.

Who better to describe this tumultuous year than Rachel Green, who is a prime example of someone trying to figure out their life and future.

1. When you have to start searching for internships for the upcoming summer.

I'm not ready to start working in the real world.

2. But just keep getting rejected.

Someone please hire me. I swear I'll do my best not to screw up.

3. When it's your last chance to change your major, but you're not sure what to do.

Do I REALLY want to do this for the rest of my life?

4. When there's only one year of college left and you're still single.

When is it time for MY happy ending?

5. When you remember there is only one year until graduation.

Trying my best not to freak out.

6. When all your friends start turning 21 without you.

Why did my parents have to give me such a late birthday?

7. When you finally turn 21.

Let's DRINK.

8. When your professors have no chill and the work won't stop piling up.

There isn't enough time in the day to get everything done.

9. When you strived for an A all semester but didn't get it.

It was worth a try.

10. When you register for senior year classes and realize you left all your hard ones for the last semester.

Senior year will definitely not be the easiest.

11. When you clean out your fridge at the end of the year and try to make a potluck dinner with what's left.

Throwing everything in a pan and hoping it'll taste good.

12. When you have to say goodbye to your best friends knowing there's just one year left.

It's always the hardest goodbye.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

Thank you for all that you do for me
Thank you for working through disagreements with me
Thank you for always supporting me
I appreciate you more than words can express
You have helped me grow and become a better person
I can't wait to see where life takes us next
I promise to cherish every moment with you
Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
