I am no longer ashamed to cry in public.

18 Signs You're Done With This Semester

It's the time for late night studying, questioning what you're doing with your life and an excessive amount of crying. That's right; it's the end of spring semester. You may feel like you're falling into a bottomless pit of despair, because you are, but at least you're not going through this hell alone.

Virtually everyone on campus (minus a few people who you currently hate with your entire being) are going through the exact same thing you are. The natural response to "how are you?" has disintegrated from "good" to "fine" to "alright" to "help me, I'm dying."

If you find yourself dreaming of the days when you can sit like a vegetable on your couch with your dog nearby, you might be done with your semester. If you're not at that point quite yet, here are some other signs it's time for you to go home:

1. You haven't done laundry in weeks, so your outfits are starting to become weirder as you search through your remaining clothes to find something to wear.

2. You get irrationally angry at everyone over the smallest things.

Sometimes you get angry at inanimate objects, too. It depends on who gets in your way.

3. Your professor assigned a final paper and a final exam.

4. Ordering has gone from once a week to once a night.

5. You are no longer ashamed to cry in public.

People are more likely to offer words of encouragement than to judge you.

6. You're considering taking up alcoholism.

7. You no longer have the will to get up for morning classes/early studying.

Maybe it's because you've been going to bed at 2 a.m. every night doing work.

8. Showering/personal hygiene is optional.

Once again, people probably aren't going to judge you.

9. You call your family more for absolutely no reason.

10. You go on large adventures you really don't have the time for.

Sure, you have two exams and a paper due tomorrow, but Chipotle sounds awesome.

11. You have no money, but you spend more money than you have all semester.

12. The best part of your day is lying in your bed for the 20-minutes before you fall asleep.

13. You've never watched more videos of cute animals in your life; nor have you taken this many Buzzfeed quizzes.

No one else is being productive either.

14. People keep telling you to cheer up, but that just makes it worse.

15. Everything makes you laugh. And then you start crying.

16. You think you're being philosophical when you write your final papers, but you're really just spitting out garbage.

17. You've considered running away more than once today.

18. You keep telling everyone how done you are with the semester.

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.

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.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September. It becomes harder and harder to focus in classes and while doing assignments as the days get closer. The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.
