Nine Signs That Fall Semester Is Starting, As Told By '30 Rock'

1. Netflix is no longer asking you if you want to "continue watching."

Sad, I know. There is no more time for merciless binges and watching movies until the sun comes up. We will miss you, Netflix. But we will meet again soon(ish).

2. Monday through Fridays have become a war zone.

Classes, meetings, tests, quizzes, we're being bombarded from all directions. Staying sane has become an art, so may the odds be ever in your favor. Will you make it?

3. Saturdays are a blur and Sundays are dedicated to picking up your messes.

Saturdays are for decompressing and Sundays are for making up all the things you didn't do on Saturday. It's only fair that you have one to mess up and another to clean up after yourself.

4. You have more friends than you can count.

So many names, so little storage left inside my head. But so much love to spread around!

5. Food is absolutely precious, especially the food you buy.

I bet you never appreciated leftovers until college. Those restaurant leftovers are the only thing you look forward to during your day, don't you?

6. There's so much to do ALL THE TIME.

Even when there is nothing scheduled for the week, there is always something to keep you busy. Stressful? Of course, but I bet you wouldn't have it any other way.

7. Absolutely everything you plan doesn't go as expected.

It doesn't come as a surprise to know that everything you plan to do goes differently than expected. After all, what's college if not one huge adventure?

8. Being tired is just part of the routine.

It becomes part of our nature. Crazy schedules and procrastination influence this so much, but we choose to live with it.

9. You're as happy as you could be.

It's hectic and sometimes even horrible, but you wouldn't have it any other way. College is college, and we simply love it.

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.
