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.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
