The first semester is a trying time that every girl (and guy) can find themselves struggling to make it through. While not everyone finds themselves escaping a doomsday cult and starting over in the less than hospitable New York City, starting college is still a tumultuous time with a great deal of change. In anticipation for April 15th when the second season of Unbreakable: Kimmy Schmidt comes to Netflix, here is a compilation of the struggles of first semester freshman year as told by Kimmy Schmidt and her closest comrades because females (and males) are strong.

Move in day finally arrives and you can't wait to start the next four years of your life according to a specific plan, starting with making your dorm room look like an Anthropologie showroom.

When your family sees your dorm for the first time and can't believe how small it is.

Finally meeting your new roommate(s) after an entire summer of Facebook/ Instagram stalking them.

That bittersweet goodbye to your family when you start to regret leaving home for four years.

And then seeing the cute guy living down the hall and knowing you'll be okay

The first time you walk through the dining hall for dinner and see the plethora of options.

Hearing weird sounds outside your dorm and being paranoid that all the news articles your mom forwarded you about college students being taken are going to come true.

But remembering the Krav Maga class you took before you left for school.

And then your first midterm doesn't go as well as you expected...

And you realize that being an adult is harder than you thought.

And you start to rethink why you came to college in the first place

Until you get your first care package from your parents.

And you decide not to let that one test derail the rest of your college experience.

But, still, nothing goes as planned and you feel like a failure.

And then you realize that the best way to enjoy your college experience is to just let go and be yourself.

All in all, the first semester of college is a roller coaster. It definitely has its highs and, unfortunately, lows. However, if we take a page from Kimmy Schmidt's book and keep on Kimmying, all will be okay and you will see why these are known as "the best years of your life".

And always remember:
