Hey have you ever thought about why you still want to have fun like you are a child again? Playing tag, running around outside, rolling around in the grass, and even playing in the snow. Well guess what. You are only expressing who you are. The child side of you wants to be free and do kid stuff. Being a kid means you do not have to worry about to much stuff. You do not have a job or any responsibility.

Well, being a kid at any age means that you are who you are. Jumping in bounce houses at the age of 24, or even just rolling down the side of a hill.

Everyday your inner child wants to be free and enjoy life like you used to when you were 1 to 9 years old. That one little memory of your child self brings back the feeling of a care free lifestyle. Randomly jumping into leaf piles in the fall, jumping in and throwing the snow in the winter or just making a giant splash in puddles during anytime of the year, it is all about that one kid like feeling you get when you remember that little moment as a kid where you enjoy the first thing that comes to mind. Everyone wants that kid to come out and be free once again, but no one else is like that more than my girlfriend Kimberly.

My girlfriend is literally a twenty-year-old child. Star Wars, Stuffed animals and eating ice cream, yeah she literally defines being a child. She know what it is like to be a child in an adult's body but she does not care and lives her life the way she wants to. It is random as hell seeing her just because I have never seen an adult child before until now. So everyone needs to release that inner child inside themselves. it makes a giant difference when you do because nobody wants to grow up. It is boring and filled with responsibility. Becoming that kid that you hold inside and being known as that one guy or girl who does not let a simple little thought of responsibility hold that childish feeling back. So, it does not matter what age you are. Twenty, Fifty, or even one hundred years old. Your child will get out and allow you to escape from your adult life for awhile so run around showing your kid side because you're a kid at any age.

Creating your schedule for the upcoming semester can be an exciting process. You have the control to decide if you want to have class two-days a week or five-days a week. You get to check things off of your requirement checklist. It's an opportunity for a fresh start with new classes (which you tell yourself you'll never skip.) This process, which always starts out so optimistic, can get frustrating really quickly. Here are 25 thoughts you have when registering for classes.

10 Thoughts Of A 5th Year Senior

What about those of us who don't do it all in four years?

"College will be the best four years of your life" is a phrase that we have all heard growing up. College is painted as a magical place to us while we are in high school. A place you go to learn, meet your best friends and probably have the time of your life while all of this is going down. Four whirlwind years, where everything that you've known changes and you start to learn what it means to live on your own, have a job, etc. But what about those of us who don't do this all in four years? Major changes, hard courses, switching schools, career paths changing, these are just a handful of factors that could extend your four years to five, six or seven. There is nothing wrong with taking extra time to graduate, but returning as a fifth-year is a little different. Most of your best friends have most likely graduated and moved and while you may be one of the oldest undergraduates on campus, you might feel as awkward as a freshmen. A world that became home and comfortable to you is still there but it's slightly different than you've known it to be and you have to find a groove to fall into. These are thoughts you'll have as you look ahead to returning to your college campus, with a victory lap planned.

You can't say that no one told you life was gonna be this way.

Western New England University

In the 12 years since it went off the air, "Friends" continues to be adored by millions. The show that gave generations unrealistic expectations about love (or should I say lobsters?) and New York City apartments had a charming cast of characters that everyone could relate to at some point or another. Here are 17 times Ross, Monica, Joey, Chandler, Phoebe and Rachel accurately described life.

Aubrey Plaza is one of my favorite humans in Hollywood. She's honest, blunt, unapologetic, and hilarious. I just started my sophomore year of college, and found that some of her best moments can accurately describe the start of the school year.
