Starting a whole new semester is always a process in itself. You have to go out and restock on everything, move back into school, and somehow start waking up and getting out of bed at a decent hour for class. It can be pretty tough.

You have to be an adult and go to the store to restock on everything you ran out of and had to borrow from your roommate for the last couple weeks.


You find yourself thinking:I should probably buy a second soap in case I run out again... IS THAT A SALE ON MAC AND CHEESE.

You have to say goodbye to all of your friends from home.

It never gets easier. Never.

Packing is always the process that will forever be difficult.

Did I bring this home because I never used it, or because I would need it while I was home?

That drive back to school that, you know, is always so fun and not boring at all.

Your mom will probably ask what classes you're taking this semester for the sixth time.

That goodbye to your parents once they drop you off where both parties are secretly happy to be rid of each other for a little bit.


See ya when I'm home for break! :) ....I mean :(

The realization that you're going to have to completely change your sleep schedule.

Those first couple morning classes are definitely rough.

That moment when you're reunited with your roommates and you realize how much you missed having them around every day.


Finally, someone I can ask if they know the last time I showered without being judged.

And, finally, the anticipation of all the fun a new semester can bring can get you pretty pumped.

Here's to a brand new semester everybody. Cheers!

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.
