Choosing Your Major, As Told By Olivia From "The Bachelor"

wetpaint.com

As a freshman, most likely you knew exactly what you were going to do with the rest of your life. However, things hardly ever go as planned. Starting out as a nursing major and switching my major three times so far, I figured my experience is best explained through GIFs and listicles and Olivia from "The Bachelor."

1. Picking your initial life calling...

...and having a false sense of security because you totally know what you're going to be doing after graduation.

2. Realizing that maybe you're not best suited for a major in Physical Education...

...considering you did everything in your power to skip that class in high school.

3. Looking through the course book...

...and not knowing what half of the majors even mean.

4. Finally!

Nursing sounds like a great profession, and I'll make a lot of money and save lives!

5. Oh wait, nope.

That's the one major I had to decide the second I stepped on campus as a freshman...

6. Oh! How about philosophy...

Yeah! I like thinking and stuff!

7. No, what can I even do with a philosophy major?

Stand on a beach and contemplate whether the water is really water?

8. What even is communications?

I can do that! I'm great at talking to people -- I do it every day!

9. Wait, I'm not that good at communication...

Sometimes I say really inappropriate things at the wrong time. And I have no clue what communications even is.

10. Oh... I've ran out of majors...

Do I even belong here? Do I have any direction? Is there even a major for what I really want to do?

11. Maybe I'll just get my MRS. degree.

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.
