The Final Stretch: As Told By "Big Little Lies"

As spring break comes to an end and visions of warmer days dance in our heads, it's getting more and more difficult to focus on school. I've recently discovered the new HBO original show: Big Little Lies, and it's quite possibly the best thing to happen to me this spring. Here's the rest of the semester as told by the cast of Big Little Lies:

#1. Coming back from spring break and trying to readjust yourself to the FREEZING "spring" weather:


#2. When your professors start talking about finals:


#3. Trying to figure out how many more lectures you can miss before it starts to count against you/affect your grade:


#4. When your first mental break down hits because you realized you have so much work left to do:


#5. That moment when you are out on a Friday and all you can think about is the term paper you haven't even started:


#6. When you hit the final month and all of sudden you have two tests per week and four final projects due:


#7. That five second period where you actually are motivated:


#8. When it's the final week and it takes everything in you to stay focused:


#9. When you're finally done with classes and finals and you realize you get to go home:


#10. As you drive away and you realize you'll actually miss Syracuse this summer:


If you haven't seen this show, go watch it. Now. You've earned a studying break (probably).

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!

Another day, another Elle Woods comment. Can’t us blondes get through the day without someone harping at us over the typical stereotypes about who we are? I never understood why a person was judged based upon the hair color they were born with, or the hair color they choose to have (unless you dye your hair blue like Kylie Jenner, I’m still trying to understand why that’s a trend). Nevertheless, as it should be assumed, not everyone is the same. Not all blondes like bright colors and Lilly Pulitzer, and not all blondes claim to identify with Marilyn Monroe. I think the best suggestion to give to people before they make such radical claims is to stop judging a book by its cover. Or in this case, stop judging a blonde by her hair color.
