13 Times 'Saturday Night Live' Described Class Registration

Sometimes in college it seems like every little thing you do has a way to be stressful. Class registration is no exception: organizing schedules, checking classes, signing up for times... it can be a nightmare. To lighten it up a little, here's just a few times that "Saturday Night Live" has felt all of our pain. Without further ado...

1. When you meet with your advisor to talk about your schedule for next semester

Didn't I just talk to you? It isn't really time to do this all over again, is it? I don't believe you.

2. When you start looking at the classes you have to take

Why are there so many? Writing out your classes for the remainder of your college career is an even worse idea. Help me.

3. When you try to plan out the times for your classes

You'd think from all the effort and cross-checking that I'm doing that I'd be decoding an ancient language, but really I'm just trying to see if I have enough time to get from one building to another in 15 minutes without hating myself.

4. When you look up your potential professors' ratings

Somebody make this end. Sometimes there are four different professors for the same time and looking each of them up gives you a full picture of who to register for. But it's so tedious...

5. When you find out you're going to have a class with a friend

It's always nice knowing that you'll have someone to talk to about the class and be able to share notes with. Solid plus.

6. When you get your registration time

Why is it so late? Is everyone else just smarter than me or something? Going through the day watching the registration website like a hawk is not my idea of fun.

7. When you see that the classes you want/need are filling up

DON'T. YOU. DARE. Listen, buddy, four years is the goal, and I'm not going to be held back by one stupid class.

8. When you realize that you're going to have to take a class with that professor no one likes

For the sake of graduating on time, I will do this. Maybe 26 student reviewers were wrong...

9. When it's the day of registration

Feeling nervous the whole day of registration is totally normal and also completely mortifying.

10. When you see that a class you need is full 15 minutes before you register

You have to be kidding me! All that planning and researching professors and stressing over whether I got it right, and now you tell me I have to rework everything?? No, I'm FINE!

11. When you finally register for classes

It's over, it's done, I can actually sleep tonight. Praise.

12. When you look at your final schedule and notice how weird your next semester is going to be

Wait, I'm going to have class until 6:30 p.m. on Mondays, and on Thursday's I don't start classes until 2 p.m. Remind me why I did this again?

13. When you remember that you can drop and add classes later

Thank goodness for drop/add. It's saved many a college kid's sanity and has helped people take the classes they need. Even if registration goes sideways, you can try your luck with the drop/add period.

To my fellow college kids out there, good luck registering for classes! Here's to hoping you get the classes that you need and the times that you want. I believe in you!

The first two weeks of classes have come to an end and they have been anything BUT easy. It seems like life has been serving up more bad than good and in all honesty, the only thing you want to do is crawl under your covers and hide from the rest of the world.

Although this seems like the best solution, it is also the easy way out. Take it from the girl who took basically a whole week off from her life because she just could not handle everything that was being thrown at her. This caused her to feel extremely lonely and even more stressed out for being behind in classes that JUST began.

11 Things We Learned From Brooke Davis

"What's more important? What we become or how we become it?"

St. Thomas Aquinas College

"She was fiercely independent, Brooke Davis. Brilliant, and beautiful, and brave. In two years she had grown more than anyone I had ever known. Brooke Davis is going to change the world someday, and I'm not sure she even knows it." - Lucas Scott, An Unkindness of Ravens

Brooke Davis of the hit show One Tree Hill was the it girl - she had it all, or so we thought. She started out as a stuck-up, shallow, spoiled, head cheerleader who didn't have her life together. She slept around a lot and loved to party - sounds like your typical high school teenager right? Wrong. B. Davis had so much more to offer. Caring, loyal, and outspoken, she has taught us some valuable lessons throughout the 9 seasons that OTH was on the air:

We call those people, "Honorary Roommates" and here are 11 signs you have one in your life.
