Season 7 Spoilers ahead, you've been warned*

The season seven premiere of The Walking Dead aired on Sunday. I've been anxiously awaiting the news of who Negan would finally kill after the long wait and cliffhanger season six ending. With all the time in between, there was a lot of speculation of who would get the ax, or rather, the bat. That being said, I had mentally prepared myself for this episode, but I honestly was not prepared at all. Here are just some of the emotions that I experienced as I watched the beginning of a story-changing season.

1. Fear

I don't think I really understood what Negan was capable of at the end of season six. Sure, it looked like Rick and his group were in some trouble, but I'm always used to them coming out on top despite everything. As I watched the opening scenes and watched Rick's reaction to everything around him, I knew the group would not be coming out unscathed. There was a point during the episode where Negan's kills are unveiled and my heart actually started racing. Negan isn't afraid to use brute force and fear to get what he wants and that became very evident this episode. It also sets the tone for the rest of the season and honestly the rest of the storyline. Negan has become a catalyst for many characters and for how the story is going to play out.

2. Anger

Ah, Daryl. How I've enjoyed seeing your character progress since the first season. I'm ready to fight the fan girls, but Daryl, you messed up big time. I remember watching Abraham get his face bashed in and then you had to do something about it, which is understandable considering your character. However, YOU GOT GLENN KILLED. I'm not sure that I'm going to be able to forgive you for that one quite yet.

3. Sadness

I love Abraham, don't get me wrong. But I wasn't ready for Glenn to go. Throughout the series, he became my favorite character, along with Maggie. And now, he's gone. He won't get to see his baby. Maggie has basically lost everyone. It's probably the most heartbreaking moment of the entire series. Not to mention his final words as he's struggling to breathe "Maggie, I'll find you". I don't think I've ever been more upset about a character death in any show or movie until this moment.

All in all, it was a brutal season premiere. However, I'm really excited to see how this is going to affect decision making and Rick's group moving forward not only for this season, but the seasons to come.

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.

1. The Legacy.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.

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. The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.
