Going to back to school is a fun time. You get to decorate your room, see your friends again and buy new school supplies. But to get to the great moments of back to school, you first have to fit your entire life into a suitcase. For me, it's nearly impossible; I have about 10 too many pairs of shoes. The process can cause a lot of anxiety in your life, so here's a little Mindy Kaling to brighten your packing.

When you realize you leave tomorrow and look across your room towards your empty suitcase and your full closet.

When you start packing clothes you haven't worn since you were a freshman in high school because you'll obviously need it if you don't bring it.

When you tell your mom that you're worried about everything fitting and she tells you to just leave some stuff behind.


That moment half way through packing when you've completely given up on everything and are ready to drop out of college rather than finish.

When you give yourself a pep talk because it's time to close the suitcase and this is going to take all of your strength.


When you finally close the suitcase and find that one thing that you really needed to pack.


When you finish packing and realize you have nothing to wear until you're in your dorm room but decide to rock it.

The feeling of relief when you get to college and have everything you need because you did such a great job packing.

I think the hardest thing about going away to college is figuring out how to become an adult. Leaving a household where your parents took care of literally everything (thanks, Mom!) and suddenly becoming your own boss is overwhelming. I feel like I'm doing a pretty good job of being a grown-up, but once in awhile I do something that really makes me feel like I'm #adulting. Twenty-somethings know what I'm talking about.

I went to a small high school, like 120-people-in-my-graduating-class small. It definitely had some good and some bad, and if you also went to a small high school, I’m sure you’ll relate to the things that I went through.

1. If something happens, everyone knows about it

Who hooked up with whom at the party? Yeah, heard about that an hour after it happened. You failed a test? Sorry, saw on Twitter last period. Facebook fight or, God forbid, real fight? It was on half the class’ Snapchat story half an hour ago. No matter what you do, someone will know about it.

Chandler Bing

I'm assuming that we've all heard of the hit 90's TV series, Friends, right? Who hasn't? Admittedly, I had pretty low expectations when I first started binge watching the show on Netflix, but I quickly became addicted.

Without a doubt, Chandler Bing is the most relatable character, and there isn't an episode where I don't find myself thinking, Yup, Iam definitely the Chandler of my friend group.

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!
