Stress. It is probably one of the most common emotions a person in this era feels. From the people who are worried about their school work and trying to balance everything, to the people who stress out about the future.

Stress is in everyone, but sometimes it really really gets to you. That's when the smallest things seem as if they are impossible. That pile of homework becomes a mountain in your mind, that stress about the future becomes a panic attack. That is when stress gets unhealthy.

You can't control it. Sometimes it just hits like a boulder and you're laying on the ground with no air and panicking. To the people who feel that way right now, it gets easier. The stress goes away. Don't put yourself down because it's hard to finish that work.

Don't call yourself dumb, or bring yourself down because you think you can't handle it. You're incredibly smart and you can do it. Take a break from things that stress you out, sometimes you just need a mental break and that is okay. Life will take you down, just so it can prepare you for the issues you'll face later.

There's a reason for everything that the world is throwing things at you to stress about, so you can come back twice as strong. You can do this. You're going to succeed through everything, and you will be okay.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!

There is nothing quite like family.

Family is kinda like that one ex that you always find yourself running back to (except without all the regret and the angsty breakup texts that come along with it).

But, more than likely, you're probably just trying to mentally cope with listening to a boring lecturer drone on and on. Perhaps some of the following Aristotle-esque thoughts have popped into your head during class.
