Here's a funny story: Midterms.

One of my friends from high school actually asked me how midterms were going a week and a half ago. I replied almost nonchalantly that midterms were so long away and I didn't have midterms in many of my classes. What I didn't realize was that midterms were actually closer than they seemed and although I am blessed with only one real class with a midterm. The other is badminton, which I actually JUST realized at this very moment has an exceptionally difficult written midterm. That class is Art, which I am currently dying in.

Art may seem like a very easy and simple class, but when you have to memorize what a painting looks like as well as the artist's name, date it was made, type of paint, medium on which it was painted on, and the intrinsic meaning of the work of art, Art class seems to be much more difficult. More difficult than Biology, it seems.

Badminton is another interesting course to get a midterm in. There's a million hits to define and what they're used for, as well as knowing all the boundaries and their names, not to mention an athletic portion where you are tested over the skills that you learn in badminton. I dismissed badminton as an easy class (just like I did with Art History), but both classes seem to be kicking me in the ass.

Oh, shit. I just remembered that I have an Economics midterm too.

So it seems that I only have one class that doesn't have a midterm-Biology.

What a great time to be alive. I'm so excited for my future.

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.

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.
