As fall semester comes to a close and we all stress over finals, let's look back on the good, bad and ugly of this semester. Whether you're a freshman or a senior, you can relate to all of these.

1. How we all felt when everyone told us it gets harder

Remember your parents telling you it's not all fun and games? Seems like forever ago now.

2. How we all feel now

Yeah we are taking L's on a daily basis now. College feels like one very big, very expensive L.

3. Everyone at their first frat party


You were surrounded by so many people you didn't know and you were feeling it.

4. How you feel after your first frat party


"I'm never drinking again." Just the thought of alcohol makes you want to puke.

5. Literally everyone in 8:30 a.m. classes


I'm still wondering why they have early classes when they know 99% of students don't go to bed until at least 2 a.m.

6. Everyone in foreign language classes

You study flashcards and think you know what you're doing but you present your oral exam and you sound like this...

7. Going to football games even though you're not quite sure what's happening

This one is mostly for my South Carolina fans because honestly, this is how the student section looks after every play.

8. Seeing literally every girl's boobs at the football games

We go to football games for the sport, not to see all of these girls wearing the least amount of clothing possible.

9. When anyone asks you to do anything on Sunday

Not only do you need to recover from the weekend, but you also have so much homework and laundry that you can't put off any longer.

10. Hearing the people in the next room doing the nasty

I don't think I have to explain. We are all scarred.

11. Forgetting you had homework to do until it's too late

You probably just realized you have homework to do.

12. Looking at the list of projects, essays, and homework you have due that week

Honestly, there's no way anyone can finish all of this and have time to eat and sleep.

13. How you actually do the readings for English or any class honestly

Readings? Yeah, I did that... kind of.

14. Reading your friend's essay even though you're already stressed to the max

We've all questioned if people ever learned English before now.

15. Literally all day every day

We all have those days. For most of us, this has been a daily feeling since we moved in.

16. Having the worst professor

We all have that one professor. Mine lives with his mom and dresses like Kanye and he is too socially awkward to teach anyone anything.

17. When any small inconvenience happens on top of the mess that is your life

You ran out of toilet paper, you can't find your favorite pair of jeans, and you hear people laughing while you're studying. Like why doesn't the world revolve around me? I'm a good person.

18. Me at the end of every day

Forever wishing I actually had a bathtub in my dorm because I would be much more relaxed than I am right now.

19. When your parents call to check on you

You don't know how to tell your parents that your world is falling apart and you have no clue what you're doing. Just say you're eating vegetables and you actually got some sleep last night; save your mom the heartache.

20. Looking at your grades

Even if you have an A or an F in a class, you studied so much you feel like you deserve a nobel prize or something.

21. Listening to your friends talk about wanting to get drunk all the time

You stayed in the library all night while everyone did something with their lives.

22. Thinking you want to get your life together

We all know that feeling when we accomplished one task and thought we could be adults now.

23. When your professor tells you there will be material on the final you never went over


You just took an exam one week before the final and you think your professor is done teaching.

24. When your professors don't seem to understand how hard finals are

Think about how many students drink excessive amounts of Red Bull, take Adderall, and don't eat for days. Finals threaten the safety of all students.

25. Thinking about doing it all again next semester

Yeah, we have to do it all over again in a few weeks.

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.

College is a great place to meet people, especially through Greek life. If you look closely at sororities, you'll quickly see there are many different types of girls you will meet.

1. The Legacy.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.

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. It becomes harder and harder to focus in classes and while doing assignments as the days get closer. The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.
