16 Quotes From 'The Office' To Inspire Any College Senior
Mariah Datema

After re-watching "The Office" recently, I realized many of the most quote-able moments related perfectly to my life leading up to my college graduation. I'm tired of school. I'm excited to be done. I'm scared of the real world. And I mostly don't know what's going on most of the time.

Since these are also many themes presented in "The Office", I figured it would only be appropriate to share some quotes that are the most relatable to a soon-to-be college graduate. Enjoy!

"You miss 100% of the  shots you don't take. - Wayne Gretzky" - Michael Scott

"I stopped caring a long time ago." - Creed Bratton

"Mo' money mo' problems." - Michael Scott

"And I knew exactly what to do. But in a much more real sense, I had no idea what to do." - Michael Scott

"I DECLARE BANKRUPTCY!" - Michael Scott

" I guess I've been working so hard, I forgot what it's like to be hardly working." - Michael Scott

"Why is this so hard? That's what she said." - Jan Levinson

"I understand nothing." - Michael Scott

"I wish there was a way to know you're in the good old days before you've actually left them." - Andy Bernard

"You have no idea how high I can fly." - Michael Scott

"I am running away from my responsibilities, and it feels good." - Michael Scott

"Sometimes I'll start a sentence and I don't even know where it's going. I just hope I find it along the way." - Michael Scott

"You guys, I'm like really smart now, you don't even know." - Kelly Kapoor

"Oh my god, okay it's happening. Everybody stay calm. Everybody stay calm! Stay f***ing calm!" - Michael Scott

"Catch you on the flippity-flip." - Michael Scott

Whether you need inspiration or something to relate to, "The Office" always has the best quotes. For those of us graduating in December, we have less than two months to go; we can make it! Let these quotes remind you that you are not alone in how you feel. We may have stopped caring a long time ago, but it's happening, so stay f***ing calm!"

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
