Back To College As Told By 'New Girl'
Wikia

Coming back after a year or two of college is just as exciting as your freshman year. No one understands this excitement better than Nick, Jess, Schmidt and Winny the Bish.

1. Meeting your new roommates.

2. Remembering you have $7 and can only afford to eat Ramen.

3. Begging friends for their notes and textbooks.

4. Scoping out the new freshman.

But also..

5. Trying to make friends with strangers in class.

6. When all your friends start to work out, but you're not about that.

7. Seeing all the couples, that you definitely missed, walking to class, holding hands, hugging, etc.

8. Wearing all your new clothes before you resort back to sweatpants and leggings.


9. Netflix consumes a significant majority of your day.

10. When your professor uses the entire class period for syllabus day.

11. When your professor skips syllabus day completely and jumps right into the material.


12. Trying to remember how to do homework.

13. You handled the freshman 15, but now you face the sophomore 20, junior 25, and senior 30.


14. People ask about your summer and you recount wonderful tales from work.


15. Having so many "I haven't seen you in so long!" conversations with people you wished to avoid.


But despite all of the bad things, you're just excited to be back at college with all of your friends again. Make it a great year!

Summer is hot and humid, and it's almost like summer was made specifically to drink the refreshing, cold, crisp wonderful, delicious, nutritious nectar of the gods.

bruce springsteen album cover born in the usa

Anyone who was born and raised in New Jersey (or anywhere really) knows of Bruce Springsteen, whether or not they like him is a whole other situation. I hope that his hundreds of classic rock songs and famous high energy performances, even in his sixties he can put on better concerts than people half his age, are at least recognizable to people of all ages. Love him or hate him (I identify with the former) you have to admit that some of his songs and interviews have inspirational quotes and lyrics.
