The Start Of The Fall Semester According To "Parks and Rec."

The Start Of The Fall Semester According To "Parks and Rec."
Giphy

Fall semester is underway, and you're so excited to be reunited with your friends and start new classes!


...until your first week is over and you already have three papers due soon, an exam coming up, several group projects to work on, all on top of working after classes and the four meetings you have during the week and weekend...



"Why am I already freaking and stressing out? We just got back!?" You say to yourself. Just so you don't explode from everything already, you ask your roommate and friends to help you out.

You get to your first class of the day and go to sit in that perfect spot you've planned out and find someone else in your seat...

Time for the first presentation...you haven't had class or done anything with these students (except the one who stole your seat), so you don't know how they're going to react or receive you...




Next class, you're working on group projects. Two of the students are arguing over how to do it, one guy is just sitting in the back on his phone, and someone else left for the bathroom 45 minutes ago. You decide to take over the whole operation.

Next class is your math class, and while your teacher is lecturing and explaining it all, you think you get it. When you get back home to start doing your work, you've forgotten everything you learned and doing homework is impossible.



When you stay up all night to finish a paper and study for exams, and drink so much Monster and coffee to stay alert, it feels like your heart is going to explode.

When Ramen noodles and Easy Mac cups won't cut it for dinner, you decide to hit up the nearest pizza place. You deserve it after all of this hard work!

Sometimes the work just gets to be too much and all you can do is lie in bed and watch Netflix to distract yourself from responsibilities. And you don't listen when your roommate suggests you start working so you won't be stressed out as much.

Pretty soon, the first weeks are over and everything seems like normal as you finally get into a routine and you aren't losing your mind every few moments. Everything is amazing and you feel great!

Until you remember.....

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September. It becomes harder and harder to focus in classes and while doing assignments as the days get closer.
