25 Times Chandler Bing Perfectly Described Residence Life
Thought Catalog

Any individual who has ever worked in Residence Life knows the position has its ups, has its downs, and has its moment that make you question why you even work there in the first place. Chandler Bing sums up the job perfectly in these 25 gifs.

1. That one new freshman who caught your eye during move-in week...

And they turn out to be your resident. Awkward!


2. That feeling when you finally finish your hall decorations.


3. During the first few weeks of the semester...

And everyone wants to change rooms because of their roommate conflicts.


4. Those residents who always overshare about their personal lives.


5. That one CA who wants to be the 'cool' CA...

And it reminds you of that dad who tries to be 'hip.'


6. Whenever you have a hall meeting...

And no one listens to a thing you have been saying.


7. The creepy basement you have to check when you go on rounds.


8. When your residents are being loud with their doors open.


9. Coming up with ideas for program planning...


10. And finding ways to bribe your residents to actually attend.

Like free condoms! That always works.


11. That one resident you're constantly reminding of the rules...

And they forget immediately five seconds later.


12. When you have to stay up until 2:00 A.M. for desk shifts.


13. You're just going about your day and somehow you run into an incident.


14. What you're really thinking during 3:00 A.M. lockouts.


15. How it feels when no one abides by quiet hours.


16. While on rounds, you check the bathrooms...

And you find your residents having sex in the showers.

17. Those residents who refuse to wear any pants...

No matter how many times you ask them to.

18. The ACs ask you to find residents to show their rooms during campus tours...

Or else you have to 'volunteer' to show yours.

19. When you have an incident and campus police say they'll be there 'shortly'...

And they arrive 15-30 minutes later.

20. Those residents who always break the rules, but will still try to claim their innocence.

Could you be any more predictable?


21. All your friends are out having fun on the weekends...

But you're stuck inside because you're on-call.

22. When the residents try to sneak past the desk on their way back from partying.


23. Waiting for next year's placements to be sent out can be nauseating.


24. During move out, you see that one resident who made your life hell all year....

And you pretend to care that they're finally leaving.

25. When it's the end of the semester and you finally get to go home...


But you just don't know how to not be a CA.

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.

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
