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.

Mistakes are something we all make, no matter how old we get. Most of the time, the mistakes we made are little and sometimes due to something out of our control. Yet, there are mistakes that are bigger than others. Personally, I have mistakes that I wish I could go back and undo. Here they are:

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

Who could be a better friend than your own sister?

sisters
Taylor Hooper

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.
