Thoughts Of A College Student Told By The Characters Of 'Friends'

All of us college kids are going through a lot at once and sometimes it all comes crashing down on us. We all have our good days and our bad days. Whether it be about changing your major, studying for exams, going out, or having boy troubles, we are all essentially having the same problems.

Here are some thoughts us students have on a daily basis as told by the characters of everyone's favorite television show, "Friends."

1. When you have a complete meltdown and realize you don't know what you want to do with your major.

Or even worse, you decide you don't even like your major and want to switch out to something completely different. Then you realize you have to fill out an application and be accepted into the new major you decided on.

2. When you've finally come to terms with the fact that you're broke and in dire need of money.

(yes I know this is from "The Office," but I had to put this in).

3. When you realize the only words in your vocabulary are "oh my god" and you seriously need to expand.

OMG I need to stop saying oh my god!!!!

4. When you just want to be loved.

5. When you avoid 8 a.m. classes at all costs.

6. But of course there is always that one class ...

... that only has one section open and it happens to be at 8 a.m. on Fridays. You have no choice but to take it because it is a prerequisite for your major and if you don't take it then you won't be able to take any other classes in your major.

7. ... Yet you still go out every Thursday

8. Then somehow you make it to class the next morning and feel like dying


9. When you somehow get an A on your exam that you didn't even study for.

10. Or if you studied for days but barely scraped a C and your friend that did not study at all got an A.

11. When you realize you have gained at least 10 pounds since school started.

12. When you see a dog on campus

13. When someone you hate shows up at the pregame

14. When your friends start to fight at the party and you are just too drunk to deal with it/go near them.

Or even worse, you start to feel passive aggression and it's super uncomfortable.

15. So you end up making some new friends

... probably in the bathroom

16. When you get a boost of confidence.

17. When your sarcasm is so extreme that you start making loud comments about other people in public

... and you don't realize until afterwards that they probably think you're very rude.

18. When pizza is all you eat.

19. When you are mad at someone

20. When you go to the gym for the first time in a few weeks


21. And when you are just too lazy

"Friends" just gets us college kids.

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.
