Creating your schedule for the upcoming semester can be an exciting process. You have the control to decide if you want to have class two-days a week or five-days a week. You get to check things off of your requirement checklist. It's an opportunity for a fresh start with new classes (which you tell yourself you'll never skip.) This process, which always starts out so optimistic, can get frustrating really quickly. Here are 25 thoughts you have when registering for classes.

1. Wow, time to sign up for classes already!

2. Alright, one semester closer to graduation. Let's do this.

3. I already know exactly what I'm gonna take.

4. Ugh, I have an advising flag on my account.

5. Okay, no problem. I'll just email my adviser about getting it removed.

6. In the meantime, I'll add all my classes to my cart.

7. I'm only going to schedule myself for Tuesday/Thursday classes. I'll have so much extra time to be productive!

8. Why are all the classes I need for my major scheduled at the most inconvenient times?

9. I mean, I guess having a three-hour night class on Wednesday isn't the worst thing in the world.

10. Just kidding, I am already dreading it and it's still months away.

11. Alright, get it together. This is what being a responsible adult is about.

12. Oh wonderful. That class is already wait listed.

13. Maybe I should check Rate My Professor real fast.

14. On second thought, maybe I'll wait on that class until it's offered with a different professor.

15. I really shouldn't sign up for an 8 a.m.

16. And it's only offered at 8 a.m.

17. I'll be fine. I'll just have to keep myself motivated to go to class.

18. I feel like there should be an easier way to do this.

19. It's like they're trying to make us regret all our life choices.

20. I can handle 18 credits, right?

21. What am I gonna do for three hours between these classes?

22. This is literally the most inconvenient and unorganized class schedule in existence.

23. Whatever, I'll just use that break to study.

24. Now I just have to pray these classes don't fill up before my enrollment appointment.

25. Thank goodness I don't have to do this again for another six months.

You can't say that no one told you life was gonna be this way.

friends

In the 12 years since it went off the air, "Friends" continues to be adored by millions. The show that gave generations unrealistic expectations about love (or should I say lobsters?) and New York City apartments had a charming cast of characters that everyone could relate to at some point or another. Here are 17 times Ross, Monica, Joey, Chandler, Phoebe and Rachel accurately described life.

Aubrey Plaza is one of my favorite humans in Hollywood. She's honest, blunt, unapologetic, and hilarious. I just started my sophomore year of college, and found that some of her best moments can accurately describe the start of the school year.

1. When your advisor tells you that you should declare a major soon.

2. Seeing the lost and confused freshmen and remembering that was you a short year ago, and now being grateful you know the ins and outs of the campus.

3. Going to the involvement fair to sign up for more clubs knowing that you are already too involved.

4. When you actually do the reading required for the first class.

5. Seeing your friends for the first time since last semester.

6. When you're already drowning in homework during syllabus week.

7. Realizing you don't have the same excitement for classes as you did as a freshman.

8. Going home and seeing people from high school gets weirder the older you get.

Dear Mom,

You took care of me and my brothers our entire lives and you still continue to! I will not be able to truly grasp all of the hard work that you put into this family until I create my own one day. But, I know that there are plenty of times I forgot to give you a simple thank you or an appreciative smile. I thank you for everything that you have done for me and will continue to do for me. Here are some examples of those times where you had my back and I forgot to pat your back for saving me:

College is hard. As people ages 18-22, we’re just trying to figure out what we’re doing with our lives, our careers, our eating habits, exercise routines, sleep patterns, and other necessities for adult life. We definitely don’t take proper care of ourselves; it’s basically impossible when we have essays, tests and readings due and somehow we’re supposed to eat right, exercise and sleep. We’re doomed to get sick. I have zero experience in science but when I get sick there are certain things I do to make myself better.
