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.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
