Shonda Rhimes's hit series "How To Get Away With Murder" has captured the hearts of the nation. Every Thursday night, we are all at the edge of our seats, hearts palpating, and consistently hyperventilating as we anticipate what surprise the show is going to throw at us this time. What has become more than a television series has taught us what it means to protect those you love the most, how to stand up for yourself, and especially to never accept defeat. Now, what has "How To Get Away With Murder" taught me about college...


1. The overly-excited student will somehow always find their way to sit next to you on the first day of class


2. After three all-nighters in a row, you start to get on edge


3. As much as you'd like to believe you're the only one suffering, you never are alone

4. After missing just one lecture, nothing seems to make sense anymore


5. You'll always tell yourself, "I'm going to study a little every day," but you can't seem to ignore the little voice in your head


6. When you get asked to answer a question in class, you realize you have no idea how to study


7. Then you realize the review that was given in class is nothing like the actual exam


8. There will always be that one person who will ask what grade you got on the test you know you bombed


9. In due time, you begin to pick up on where to start in order to start succeeding


10. Then you finally realize that college may not be so terrible after all

It's a scary world out there, but just remember what Annalise Keating once said: "Think carefully. Everything after this moment will not only determine your career, but life."

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.
