Most of us, at one point or another, have sat down and started NBC’s The Office. Some of us have watched an episode or two while others have watched it 9 times over (totally not me). There’s a lot of humor and emotion in the show, making some scenes easy to relate to. Here are 5 of the most relatable ones:

1. “Sometimes I’ll start a sentence and I don’t even know where it’s going. I just hope I find it along the way” – Michael Scott

More often than none, we just tend to make up speeches as we’re in the middle of presenting to make sure it meets the time requirement. It’s good to know that we aren’t entirely alone when we just “wing it.”

2. “There’s too many people on this earth. We need a new plague.” – Dwight Shrute

How many times have you been walking through the halls at school and it took way longer to get to class than it needed to? Or even just trying to get some Chik-Fil-A on campus but the line is all the way to the door? Dwight says our deepest thoughts in this episode.

3. “I’m running away from my responsibilities… and it feels good.” – Michael Scott


Exactly what I think most of us would love to do during finals week. It’s easier said than done, and definitely a nice thing to daydream about when you're avoiding studying.

4. “Did I stutter? ” – Stanley Hudson


Sometimes you just have to act extra confident in the answers you give during class… even when your answer is Abraham Lincoln during a math lecture and your professor questions your answer.

5. “I am an early bird and a night owl. So I am wise and have worms.” – Michael Scott


College sometimes (*ahem* always) asks a lot of our time, like late night studying and early morning classes. Michael helps us realize some of the good in enduring both.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
