15 Stages We Go Through Reading A Book, As Told By The Middle’s Brick Heck
TV TIME

There’s nothing better than snuggling up with a good book and some coffee. I read ALL. THE. TIME. I love traveling to different worlds and learning about different people and experiencing their lives. If you’ve ever seen the show "The Middle" then you know that the youngest son, Brick Heck, also loves to read. He has read so many books throughout the series, his most favorite being, Planet Nowhere. I wish that book series was real because it sounds really interesting.

ANYWAYS! Here are the 15 stages I go through when reading a book, told by "The Middle's" Brick Heck!

1. Going To The Store And Buying That Book You’ve Been Waiting For

2. Getting In Your Place So That You Can FINALLY Crack It Open

3. Letting All Of Your Friends And Family Know You Will Be Incommunicado Until You Finish This Book

4. When The Book Starts Getting Really Good

5. When You Completely Immerse Yourself In The Book World

6. When Someone Says “Why Don’t You Go Hang Out With Your Friends Instead Of Reading All Day?”

7. When Someone Tries To Interrupt You While You’re Clearly In The Middle Of Reading

8. When You’re Upset About Something That Happened In The Book And Someone Says “Its Just A Book.”

9. When Someone Asks What The Book Is About


10. When Someone Says “You Look Tired, You Should Sleep More.”

11. When Your Favorite Character Dies And You Question Everything

12. When You Realize The Love Interest In The Book Isn’t Real And You’re Probably Going To Die Alone

13. When You Finish The Book

14. But Then You Realize You Need To Tell Everyone About Its Greatness

15. When You Try To Integrate Back In To Society And Be A ‘Normal’ Person Again

Creating your schedule for the upcoming semester can be an exciting process. You have the control to decide if you want to have class two-days a week or five-days a week. You get to check things off of your requirement checklist. It's an opportunity for a fresh start with new classes (which you tell yourself you'll never skip.) This process, which always starts out so optimistic, can get frustrating really quickly. Here are 25 thoughts you have when registering for classes.

10 Thoughts Of A 5th Year Senior

What about those of us who don't do it all in four years?

"College will be the best four years of your life" is a phrase that we have all heard growing up. College is painted as a magical place to us while we are in high school. A place you go to learn, meet your best friends and probably have the time of your life while all of this is going down. Four whirlwind years, where everything that you've known changes and you start to learn what it means to live on your own, have a job, etc. But what about those of us who don't do this all in four years? Major changes, hard courses, switching schools, career paths changing, these are just a handful of factors that could extend your four years to five, six or seven. There is nothing wrong with taking extra time to graduate, but returning as a fifth-year is a little different. Most of your best friends have most likely graduated and moved and while you may be one of the oldest undergraduates on campus, you might feel as awkward as a freshmen. A world that became home and comfortable to you is still there but it's slightly different than you've known it to be and you have to find a groove to fall into. These are thoughts you'll have as you look ahead to returning to your college campus, with a victory lap planned.

In the 12 years since it went off the air, "Friends" continues to be adored by millions. The show that gave generations unrealistic expectations about love (or should I say lobsters?) and New York City apartments had a charming cast of characters that everyone could relate to at some point or another. Here are 17 times Ross, Monica, Joey, Chandler, Phoebe and Rachel accurately described life.

Aubrey Plaza is one of my favorite humans in Hollywood. She's honest, blunt, unapologetic, and hilarious. I just started my sophomore year of college, and found that some of her best moments can accurately describe the start of the school year.

1. When your advisor tells you that you should declare a major soon.

2. Seeing the lost and confused freshmen and remembering that was you a short year ago, and now being grateful you know the ins and outs of the campus.

3. Going to the involvement fair to sign up for more clubs knowing that you are already too involved.

4. When you actually do the reading required for the first class.

5. Seeing your friends for the first time since last semester.

6. When you're already drowning in homework during syllabus week.

7. Realizing you don't have the same excitement for classes as you did as a freshman.

8. Going home and seeing people from high school gets weirder the older you get.
