It becomes bittersweet when the spring semester comes around. You are happy that the school year is almost over, yet stressed with all the things that spring semester brings. Here are some of the things I find most stressful. Some might not think that a few of them are that stressful, but everyone stresses over different things.

1. Running out of meal plan money.

The end of the semester is nearing, but so is the end of my meal plan. The struggle is real when you can only spend $2 a day on food and you still have three weeks left.

2. Living in a dorm without an air conditioner.

This year of living in a dorm without AC has been hell.

3. It being so nice out but you are stuck sitting in class.

4. Making plans on the weekend.

This may not seem like a big deal to some people, but for others, they spend a lot of time on what they are going to do for the weekend. Guys try to scrape up the money to get their 30 rack of Natty for the weekend, and girls have to plan a "hot" outfit.

5. Scheduling.

Scheduling is always a fun time of the year. Trying to get in the classes you need and the times that work best for you, making sure you do not schedule one to early.

6. Studying for finals.

Good luck! Just good luck with everything during finals week, good luck with getting a spot in the library, good luck getting a proper amount of sleep, good luck with your social life.

7. Preparing to leave your friends.

The end of the year is supposed to bring happiness. Classes are ending, and summer is almost here. However, it also brings sadness, you have to say goodbye to all of the friends you will not get to see until next semester.

8. Running out of school supplies.

It was around week 10 that I found myself running out of school supplies. I found myself taking notes on the back of random pieces of paper I would find in my book bag.

9. Not having any money.

Not having any money; most college students can relate. Especially those of us who don't have a job. Having to call home to mom and dad asking for beer money can be quite an awkward phone call.

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.

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.
