22 Reasons When You Know You're In A Summer Slump, As Told By "Friends"

July. How is it July? How is it the MIDDLE of July? How is summer nearly over? We're finally half way to August, meaning it's almost time to head back to school. Up until this point summer has been flying but now, not so much. For some, summer is hardly summer because of online classes, summer sessions, work, internships- but ya know, it's still summer.

It's all fun and games but then it gets to a point when that mean 'ole summer slump finally hits. It's a drag.

Here's 22 reasons when you know you're in that summer slump as told by "Friends."

1. Everything seems to suck.

2. Your mom notices this slump and TRIES to comfort you...

3. You can't tolerate your colleagues anymore.

4. Only to soon realize you're going to miss some a whole lot.

5. Food shamefully becomes a main source of comfort.

6. But you really are over doing tedious intern ~b*tch~ work.

7. You kind of feel empty inside sometimes.

8. Your friend's are starting to have a lighter schedule but not you because... poor.

9. You tend to snap quicker than usual..

10. You're so sleep deprived you become delusional.

11. You weirdly contemplate downloading Tinder again.

12. Other people hit the slump and are pathetically sliding into your DMs and you hate that you love it.

13. You almost hate seeing people have fun via Snapchat.

14. But hey, when the weirdo at the bar hits on you, you go with it.

15. Then low-key admit to yourself you wish you had a summer romance.

16. But then you realize you would rather be punched in the face.

17. Missing school hits you harder because it's your favorite place.

18. Oh, but classes...

19. ... And it's almost football season which means 8 AM drinking.

20. Then you realize you're screwed because of your tolerance.

21. The "I'm NOT crazy" feeling strolls on in.

22. But then ya remember that all slumps come to an end. Hallelujah!

Slumps happen but who cares, whatever. You're a rockstar. Stay golden. If Ross, Monica, Chandler, Joey, Rachel, and Phoebe-- even Gunther, can make it through, I can assure you that so can you.

It's called growing up, but that's not necessarily a bad thing. Life is only going to get better, wilder, and most importantly, fun. Just let the good times roll.

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.
