When us college kids are home from school we see people we haven't seen in months or maybe even years. Including old friends from high school. So much happens within a year that it can be impossible to know where to start the conversation. There's so much to say and so much backstory to each story it can seem impossible to talk about anything other than saying school is good and your classes were hard. We can only handle so much small talk, so I'm here to hand you a list of conversation starters for situations like this.

1. Animal Attacks

I've had mice living in my house all year and while they are annoying the adventures of trying to catch them are certainly entertaining.

2. Horrible Professors

Everyone has at least one horrible professor a semester and it is something we can all relate to. Plus it is a great way to get others to contribute with their own stories.

3. Roommate Horror Stories

Not everyone has one of these, but if you do it makes a great story. Everyone likes to hear about the disaster of a roommate you had freshmen year.

4. Romance

If you had a dating disaster or started dating someone new since you've last seen this group of friends nothing is a better conversation starter.

5. That One Really Fun Thing You And Your Friends Did

Everyone has at least one story of the super fun thing they did with their friends. It could be going on a roadtrip, going camping or even having a baking disaster. Whatever the one really fun thing you did was it sure makes a great conversation starter.

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Everybody gets sick once in a while, but getting sick while in college is the absolute worst. You're away from home and your mom who can take care of you and all you really want to do is just be in your own bed. You feel like you will have never-ending classwork to catch up on if you miss class, so you end up going sick and then it just takes longer to get better. Being sick in college is really tough and definitely not a fun experience. Here are the 15 stages that everyone ends up going through when they are sick at college.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
