In This Article:

In 2005, Nickelodeon canceled one of the greatest shows they have ever aired. Here's 20 great things from the show to bring you back to your childhood days.

Pacific Coast Academy

More commonly known as PCA and the beautiful campus that was home to our beloved boarding school students.

Jet-X

When the boys and girls competed to win their own Jet-X's by making some awesome commercials, you knew you also wanted to have your own to ride around campus on.

The Dorms

First off, those dorms were HUGE, seriously bigger than an average size bedroom, so colorful and fun. I'd want to live there.

The Lounge

Personal soda machine, big television, pool table and also had two stories to it. Without a doubt, they had some of the best places to live on that campus, even in the early 2000s.

The Campus

What a big campus, always so much to do. Whether it be to stop at the coffee carts on every corner or head down to the beach that surrounded the campus. Who has time for homework when there is so much to do?

Sushi Rox

You want some sushi? No worries, just walk right up the hill and there is your own personal sushi bar right on campus. Too lazy to leave your bed? Don't worry, they deliver.

Blix Drinks

It's not Gatorade, it's not Powerade, it's a Blix! We know we all wanted to try these back in the day, so hey, pass me a Blix, and get your hand on a Blix van!

Zoey Brooks

Everyone wanted to be best friends with Zoey. She made the show what it was, we loved Zoey and how she never failed to make it go right. Who could forget her love triangles with Chase and James? If only we knew what she said in that time capsule. Well, Zoey, we can't quite ever forgive you for getting the show canceled, your daughter is pretty adorable.

Chase Matthews

Everybody's favorite curly haired cutie. Chase's crush on Zoey related to so many of us. His quirkiness never failed to make us smile. He even (unsuccessfully) transferred to a school in London to be with Zoey. In the end, he finally made it out of the friendzone and got his girl.

Logan Reese

Let's be real, Logan was hot, but nobody really liked him for the first three seasons (until he dated Quinn in season four). He was rich, snobby and used his money to buy anything he wanted. He really only looked out for himself, but deep down we still enjoyed him because the Chase, Michael and Logan bromance couldn't have been possible without him.

James Garrett

Hottie. Hottie. Hottie. When James first showed up on our T.V. screens, we fell in love. While Chase was away at the other school, James was a good (fill in) boyfriend for Zoey while we waited for Chase to come back.

Michael Barret

Michael, the man who never failed to make us laugh, the stud basketball player who could also play the flute. Whether it was his crazy doodles, stupid jokes, or made up slang, PCA would never have been so fun without him.

Lola Martinez

Lola was played by the one and only Victoria Justice and she kills any role she plays. She was one and a million and nobody could have played Lola like her. Lola was obsessed with yoga and when she dated Vince, you know we all secretly loved it.

Quinn Pensky

Quirky, weird, science obsessed Quinn who tested a new experiment in every episode. Her and Mark were definitely some couple. But our hearts felt so much joy when Quinn was happily dating Logan (because who saw that one coming). We love you Quinn, long live the banapple.

Coco Wexler

Say it with me, the WORST dorm adviser ever. You never saw her not eating or crying over her long-term beau Carl. But let's be real, the episodes with Coco were better than most.

Dustin Brooks

Zoey's younger, adorable brother who always seemed to be finding himself in some kind of trouble. We love you Dustin and wish you could never grow up.

Nicole Bristow

Boycrazy Nicole who never seemed to make sense about anything she was saying. Honestly, I wasn't very sad to see her character leave at the end of season two after being diagnosed with OMGD (Obsessive Male Gender Disorder) if that's even a real thing.

The Squad

Zoey, Lola, Quinn, Chase, Michael and Logan forever the best group of friends. Thank you for the crazy times and giving us such a great childhood television show.

The Final Episode

60 minutes of pure happiness, but also sadness as "Zoey 101" finally came to a close. Here is the link to the last episode where everything good finally happens in the end. Chasing Zoey

The 10 years later episode

And you thought they would never make another episode...10 years later and the time capsule is finally opened. Click the link to watch the special extra episode that was aired in 2015 to find out what Zoey said about Chase all those years ago.

Forever in our hearts, long live PCA.

In case you're unaware, "resting bitch face" is the term used to describe when a person's natural, expressionless face makes it look like they are mad at the world. Whether they are walking down the street or simply spacing out thinking about what to eat for dinner, it's very easy for others to assume that this person is either upset or mad at them. Because of this, those of us with Resting Bitch Face (RBF), and especially us women, have all experienced many of the same situations and conversations, including:

We've all had a crush before. Whether it leads to something or nothing, the process has all been the same. The awkward feelings, the stalking, and the stress of trying to keep this huge secret. The feeling of becoming a total spazz is something that cannot be avoided, and the most spazzy family that can relate to this feeling is the Belcher's.

At the tender age of 18, we are bestowed with the title of “adult.” For 17 years, we live under the rules and guidelines of our parents, school, and government, and to stray from any of those rules or guidelines marks us as a rebel. At 18, though, we must choose which college we want to go to or what career we want. We are allowed and encouraged to vote. We can buy lottery tickets and cigarettes. We can drop out of school, leave our household, and do other "adult" things. At 18, we start down a path of thinking for ourselves, when for the entirety of our lives other institutions have been mandated to think and do for us.

Creating your schedule for the upcoming semester can be an exciting process. You have the control to decide if you want to have class two-days a week or five-days a week. You get to check things off of your requirement checklist. It's an opportunity for a fresh start with new classes (which you tell yourself you'll never skip.) This process, which always starts out so optimistic, can get frustrating really quickly. Here are 25 thoughts you have when registering for classes.

10 Thoughts Of A 5th Year Senior

What about those of us who don't do it all in four years?

"College will be the best four years of your life" is a phrase that we have all heard growing up. College is painted as a magical place to us while we are in high school. A place you go to learn, meet your best friends and probably have the time of your life while all of this is going down. Four whirlwind years, where everything that you've known changes and you start to learn what it means to live on your own, have a job, etc. But what about those of us who don't do this all in four years? Major changes, hard courses, switching schools, career paths changing, these are just a handful of factors that could extend your four years to five, six or seven. There is nothing wrong with taking extra time to graduate, but returning as a fifth-year is a little different. Most of your best friends have most likely graduated and moved and while you may be one of the oldest undergraduates on campus, you might feel as awkward as a freshmen. A world that became home and comfortable to you is still there but it's slightly different than you've known it to be and you have to find a groove to fall into. These are thoughts you'll have as you look ahead to returning to your college campus, with a victory lap planned.
