They'll be there for you when summer ends.

The End Of Summer As Told By "Friends"

We're in the last few weeks of summer, which means soon we'll be heading back to Westfield for another year of school. Gone will be the days of sleeping late and beach trips, and we'll have late nights in the library and early morning classes. But don't worry, the cast of "Friends" is there for you. They totally understand the end of summer blues.

When Westfield State sends out reminders to pay your school bill before the deadline.

Raise your hand if you've been personally victimized by the Westfield State University financial aid office.

Then driving all the way to WSU to see a mile long line at that student accounts window.

It's the day before the bills are due, so of course there's only one person working.

When you decide to bite the bullet and order your textbooks.

There's nothing worse than renting a used book on Amazon, only to find out when classes start you need an access code too. Who really needs money in their savings account anyway?

Realizing you get to see your school friends in a few short weeks.

A summer not living with your roomies and other school friends is just too long.

Explaining to your parents you spent the majority of the money you earned this summer on food.

All those iced coffees from Dunks and ice cream runs may have broken the bank more than a few times this summer.

Which might be the reason you never got the summer body you wanted.

The gym membership was more of a decoration on your key chain than something you actually used this summer.

Remembering you have 8 a.m. classes this semester.

During registration you swore next semester you'd take early classes to free up your afternoons, and after a summer of sleeping in you realize you've made a huge mistake.

When you finally get to move back into the dorms.

Even though summer has come to an end, you and your friends are totally ready to be back at school for another year.

8 Things I Realized After My First Semester In College

Actually, Kylie Jenner, 2018 is the year of realizing things.

The first semester of college is famous for being one of the most difficult transitions of one's young adult life. You're thrown into a completely new area where the majority of the people surrounding you are strangers in an academic environment that's much more challenging then what you've grown accustomed to for the past twelve years. On top of that, you probably share a room with another person (or even multiple people) on the lumpiest "mattress" you've ever slept on.

With this change comes a lot of questions: what do I want to major in? What am I passionate about? Is what I'm passionate about something I'm actually good at? Why does the bathroom smell like cranberry juice and vodka? What is that thing at the bottom of the shower drain?

6 Unrealistic Expectations Society Has For Young Adults

Don't let the thesaurus-inspired vocabularies in our résumés fool you. We're actually just big kids.

Well over four feet tall and 100 pounds in weight, many of us "young adults" of the world still consider ourselves children. Big, working, college-attending, beer-drinking children. We may live on our own, know how to cook noodles, and occasionally use a planner, but don't be fooled; the youthful tendencies that reside within us still make their way into our daily lives. From choosing to stay up until 3:00 a.m. playing video games on a school night to going out in 30 degree weather without a coat, we still make decisions that our parents and grandparents would shake their heads at in disappointment. So why are we expected to know exactly how to be a wise, professional, sensible adult? It's not that we're irresponsible (for the most part, anyway). It's that we are young, inexperienced, and still have the sought-after, enthusiastic mentality that we can do and be whatever we want, which has not yet been tarnished by the reality of the world. These are just a few of the unrealistic expectations that society has for young adults.
