Registration Week, As Told By Michael Scott

Ah registration week, one of the most stressful weeks you'll have throughout college. Who knew The Office could be so relatable when it comes your thoughts when signing up for classes for the next semester? But hey, try not to stress too much, people usually drop classes too so be sure to keep your eyes out for any openings, even after registration week. You never know!

1. After planning your "perfect" schedule, and three back up schedules.

Because one schedule just isn't going to cut it. Your writing class you chose? Yeah that filled up during the first day, better have a back up just incase. You need your perfect schedule, a backup, a backup for the backup, and a backup for the backup for the backup.

2. Watching your classes you chose, fill up.

Why does life hate me? Why do people continue to choose MY classes. There's going to be nothing left but 8am's and Friday classes by the time I pick.

3. When someone with priority brags that they got the classes they wanted.

Stop, just stop. No one wants to hear you brag about having priority. It's completely unfair to the rest of us who have to suffer while watching every class fill up. If you're going to brag, at least offer to hold a class for us..

4. When you see only a few spots left in a class you want, and you don't register for another day.

Just hoping to see a shooting star so I can wish for one spot to be left by the time I register.. Just one spot, that's all I ask for in life.

5. When it's finally your registration day.

IT'S HERE. REGISTRATION DAY IS HERE, STAY CALM, DO NOT FREAK OUT, GRAB YOUR LAPTOP AND GET READY! No one better get in my way, the internet better not lag, and my laptop better be charged and ready to go.

6. When you FINALLY pick your classes.

Ha, I got my classes, in your face. They may or may not be my first choice but, my time is over and I have completed the difficult task of college. Now I feel like I'm on top of the world, while the freshman still have to wait another day, and get the left over classes.

7. Then you disappear for a while into your dorm room, to de-stress.

I'm emotionally drained, registration week makes me feel so exhausted. If you need me, I'll be laying in my bed for the rest of the day.. or week.. or month.. But, please don't need me.


Good luck registering!

I think the hardest thing about going away to college is figuring out how to become an adult. Leaving a household where your parents took care of literally everything (thanks, Mom!) and suddenly becoming your own boss is overwhelming. I feel like I'm doing a pretty good job of being a grown-up, but once in awhile I do something that really makes me feel like I'm #adulting. Twenty-somethings know what I'm talking about.

I went to a small high school, like 120-people-in-my-graduating-class small. It definitely had some good and some bad, and if you also went to a small high school, I’m sure you’ll relate to the things that I went through.

1. If something happens, everyone knows about it

Who hooked up with whom at the party? Yeah, heard about that an hour after it happened. You failed a test? Sorry, saw on Twitter last period. Facebook fight or, God forbid, real fight? It was on half the class’ Snapchat story half an hour ago. No matter what you do, someone will know about it.

Chandler Bing

I'm assuming that we've all heard of the hit 90's TV series, Friends, right? Who hasn't? Admittedly, I had pretty low expectations when I first started binge watching the show on Netflix, but I quickly became addicted.

Without a doubt, Chandler Bing is the most relatable character, and there isn't an episode where I don't find myself thinking, Yup, Iam definitely the Chandler of my friend group.

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!
