For those who never went to college or went to college many years ago, it's safe to say that college campuses are a mystery. But as I've gone through my first two semesters on campus, I've definitely noticed that each building has its own personality, and each student that spends their time there has some unique characteristics of their own.

And, as an avid lover of "The Office," it only seems right that I try to explain my discoveries through one of my favorite TV shows.

1. Starbucks

We're coffee addicts. It's a given. And while no one has poisoned the coffee yet (thank goodness), they could probably take out the whole school if they tried it!

2. Frat houses

I've seen many breakups and many sobbing sorority girls at frat parties when their date ditches them to hang out with his "brothers."

3. The dining hall

The food may be subpar as we reach the end of the semester, but you'll still undoubtedly see students stuffing their faces with every combination of food and every number of plates possible.

4. The bookstore

I'm obsessed with Miami gear, and it's so hard to avoid the temptation to go check out the new stock every week or so. One thing that I do always see on my visits there is students and potential students cringing when they see the price tags!

5. The Student Center

The perfect place for naps!

6. The classroom

Those 8:30's are killer. There's nothing else to be said. In any classroom, especially an early one, you're bound to see someone holding back tears as they're miserably counting down the few remaining minutes til freedom!

7. The Rec Center

Nothing but meatheads with biceps the size of a pickup truck showing off for their buddies and guys playing basketball with their friends. Still, nice to visit it during one of the less busy times of the semester.

Sometimes I really do think I'm living in "The Office"...just a much bigger office, that you live in, with people you spend every waking moment with. Next time you're on campus, take a look around, and you might just be able to hear Michael and Dwight planning some ridiculous scheme or see Jim looking at the camera crew in exasperation.
