The first week back to college can be full of emotions. Let's leave Rachel, Monica, Pheobe, Joey, Ross, and Chandler to sum it up for us:
1. “Welcome to the real world; it sucks. You’re going to love it!” - Monica
When you go back to school and realize that despite having nonstop social action for four months, you actually have to go to class and study.
2. “If he doesn’t like you, this is all a moo point. Yeah, it's like a cow’s opinion. It just doesn’t matter. It’s moo” - Joey
GiphyWhen you're giving your best friend a pep talk about moving on from that jerk from last semester.
3. “Isn’t that just “kick-you-in-the-crotch, spit-on-your-neck fantastic?” - Rachel
When the professor says that the midterm and final exams count for almost the entirety of your final grade.
4. “You can’t just give up! Is that what a dinosaur would do?” - Joey
What you tell yourself when you sit down to write your first paper of the semester and feel like just tossing your laptop out the window.
5. “Hi. We would like more alcohol” - Rachel, calling Room Service
What you tell the girls when they ask in the group chat if anyone needs anything from the store.
6. “I don’t even have a ‘pla’.” - Phoebe, when asked if she has a plan
When you compile all of your due dates for the semester and have to figure out how you're going to get everything done.
7. “You could not be more wrong. You could try, but you would not be successful” - Ross
Pretty much what the professor feels like telling you when you give them the wrong answer after a whole summer of not studying.
8. “Four-seven… five-seven… six-seven! Seven! Seven! Seven-seven-seven! Seven!” - Monica
When you're telling the girls about your summer fling. (Real 'Friends' fans know exactly what I'm talking about)
9. “Oh, I wish I could but I don’t want to” - Phoebe
Your response to when your roommate tells you to go to class instead of skipping on the first day to take a nap.
10. “But they don’t know that we know they know we know!” - Phoebe
When you and the rest of your classmates are talking about all the stuff they read on their professors RateMyProfessor page.
11. “PIVOT!” - Ross
When it's time to move all of your things into your dorm or apartment.
12. “I shouldn’t be allowed to make decisions anymore” - Rachel
When you realize the way you planned out your schedule may not have been the best.
13. “Hi … I make jokes when I’m uncomfortable” - Chandler
When the professor wants to go around the room so everyone can introduce themselves.
14. “How you doin’?” - Joey
When you're trying to flirt with someone you noticed last semester but didn't have the guts to approach.
15. “You’re over me? When were you under me?” - Ross
When you see a hookup from last semester and they act like they're trying to move on from something the two of you never even had.
16. “Oh, come on, Will; just take your shirt off and tell us!”- Phoebe
GiphyWhen you're trying really hard not to flirt with that hot guy in your class but you can't hold back anymore.
17. “You’ve been BAMBOOZLED!” - Joey
When you take that first taste of cafeteria food after a whole summer of home-cooked meals and forgot how terrible something "edible" can taste.
18. “I’m fine!” - Ross, holding back tears.
When the homesickness hits.
19. “I’m not so good with the advice… Can I interest you in a sarcastic comment?” - Chandler
When your friend vents to you about how terrible their classes are but you have no idea what to say.
20. “You’re so far past the line, you can’t even see the line. The line is a dot to you” - Chandler
When the professor tells you that you're going to fail if you don't read every single line from the textbook.
21. “Here comes the meat sweats” - Joey
GiphyWhen you procrastinated all your homework from the first week back and now it's Sunday night at 10 PM and you have to do every assignment.
