Things you may not realize are different between high school and college:

No one cares if you wear pajamas to class

Wearing the biggest t-shirt and fuzziest socks you can find is basically the newest trend.

You don't live with mommy anymore, say hello to cereal and Ramen Noodles

You gotta do what you gotta do.

Curfew? Never heard of her.

No you don't have a curfew anymore, but nothing good happens past 2am.

Everything said in class is most likely posted online

No need to email your professor that you're "sick", most professors will post all their lecture slides online.

Sundays are now for hangovers and homework

Sunday funday? Said no one ever.

The realization that you need your pet now more than ever

I only love my bed and my puppy I'm sorry

High school parties are nothing compared to college

"Just 2 shots of vodka"

Exams are worth way more than participation points

An exam worth more than 20% of your final grade? Thats outrageous!

The library is now your new best friend

You're only a loser if you DON'T know where the library is

You don't live with your mom anymore... call her

Mom, I love you.

Girl With Bleached Hair
Tumblr

I've been a bleach blonde for over a year now, and let me tell you, it is a lifestyle. More hair appointments, longer showers, and special shampoo. But it is totally worth it!

1. Mentally preparing yourself to convince your hair dresser that white is the way to go.

2. Or the anxiety of what could go wrong by bleaching your hair at home.

3. You could either become a ginger

4. Or a pixie

5. The face you make in the mirror when you take off your towel to unveil the perfect white strands.

6. Taking a million selfies the day you bleached it, because you know your roots will be back in literally 2 days.

7. Having to get bangs or a big chop because your hair is so damaged.

8. Having orange highlights in between touch-ups.

9. Going out for a drink afterwards to debut your updated look.

Despite the struggles, you love your platinum blonde hair! You make sure Instagram knows it, too. You don't need a filter, because the color is flawless by itself!

Now that we have established that this week is not fun, here are some super relatable moments that punctuate finals week.

I've been at this college thing for almost three and a half years, and while I thought that high school was truly the lowest point of my existence, I'm beginning to realize that it was a walk in the park. Like, I miss the days when the biggest white lie I told my parents was my made up excuse about being late for fourth period. These days, the white lies are a tad more complex, and as ashamed as I am to admit it, I've definitely told a few of these.

As most of us already know, Friends is one of the greatest television series ever produced. The cast is genius. The humor never gets old. The episodes are relatable and timeless.

I can easily say that I have watched each season at least three times and I belly laugh harder every time. All Friends fans can agree that there are certain lines that form a bond between us and when heard one cannot help but laugh.
