The Last Month Of College Told By The Office

Realizing you are getting a job and have to pay more bills. It’s stressful and on top of that, you just want to have fun.

The last month of college is a crazy time. Trying to finish up school work, get things ready for graduation, (wait, what?) like pictures, announcements, buying a cap and gown (like my $40 hat that I just paid close to $100 for?). Realizing you are getting a job and have to pay more bills. It’s stressful.

On top of that, you just want to have fun. It is your last month before work becomes 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. with no summer and you don’t get an entire month off for holidays. I have some feelings about that and so does "The Office," including Jim, Pam, and of course, Michael Scott.

1. I have all these things and I still have to do school work

Procrastination and senioritis are at an all-time high and you just don’t feel like doing anything.

2. But first, buy a cap and gown

You mean to tell me that I spent (or borrowed. I hate you, loans) all this money and a cap and gown to CELEBRATE my accomplishments is close to $100?

3. Next, graduation picture time

They cost a fortune unless you can find someone who isn't trying to break your bank.

4. Now, you have to address all those announcements.

But, I don’t want to lose my hand while writing all these to people who haven't seen me since my elementary school graduation.

5. Then, there are those people who post a graduation picture EVERY day.

Look, I know you are excited. But, seriously… that is SO unnecessary.

6. It finally starts to hit you that graduation is around the corner

What? This is real? It’s almost over?

7. You have to pay student loans

All those students loans you have? Yeah. You have to start paying them now.

8. You are responsible for things you have no idea how to do yet.

Wait, how do I apply for all these things? How do I start my own car insurance? How do I pay loans? How do I do my taxes?

9. You don't get a real summer anymore

Same Kevin, same.

10. At least we made it!

But hey, you are done with school forever (unless you are going to grad school)! So that is something to celebrate!


The last month of college is brutal and a lot of things are realized but you are almost done. You can do this! Congrats on graduating from me and everyone at "The Office!"

Christmas tree

It's the most wonderful time of the year! Christmas is one of my personal favorite holidays because of the Christmas traditions my family upholds generation after generation. After talking to a few of my friends at college, I realized that a lot of them don't really have "Christmas traditions" in their family, and I want to help change that. Here's a list of Christmas traditions that my family does, and anyone can incorporate into their family as well!

It’s here; that time of year when college students turn into preschoolers again. We cry for our mothers, eat everything in sight, and whine when we don’t get our way. It’s finals, the dreaded time of the semester when we all realize we should have been paying attention in class instead of literally doing anything else but that. Everyone has to take them, and yes, unfortunately, they are inevitable. But just because they are here and inevitable does not mean they’re peaches and cream and full of rainbows. Surviving them is a must, and the following five phases are a reality for all majors from business to art, nursing to history.
