10 End Of Semester Reactions Told By 'Friends' Characters

Tis' the season for forgotten due dates and giving assignments the ole' college before heading home for break. We are stressed, we are tired, we are hungry, just want to go home and our favorite "Friends" characters have the perfect reactions.

1. When your professor changes a project due date without updating the syllabus

Giphy

You've gone to every class and taken every note possible. But for some reason, your professor swears they told the class about a change in the syllabus.

2. Sitting through a class where your professor "teaches" by reading word for word from the powerpoint for the millionth time

Giphy

It is no surprise the professor is back at it again reading word for word off the Powerpoint slides with a million words on each slide. Did we expect something different? No, but we can still have hopes.

3. You finally get hit with the campus plague

Giphy

You've tried to avoid your campus's rapidly-spreading cold, but you were unsuccessful. Congratulations, you are now the kid in class who never stops coughing and sniffling.

4. Avoiding everything by getting coffee

Giphy

You can tell yourself all you want that you're going to actually sit down and study.. until someone suggests getting coffee. All bets are officially off.

5. Your professor says your final isn't cumulative, there will be a curve, and they are dropping your lowest quiz grade

Giphy

These types of professors are rare to find while in college, but believe there are still kind souls out there. Be thankful and don't do anything to risk the professor changing their mind.

6. When you see someone having their third breakdown in the library during finals week

Giphy

You are practically living in the library to study. Maybe, just maybe, you're on the "no talking" floor. But you see a lonely soul in the middle of their third breakdown. Just go ask if they're okay.

7. You haven't eaten, slept, studied, and you're running purely on high hopes and three coffees

Giphy

You're using all your strength to hold back the tears. You're not sure if they're because you're sleep deprived, hungry, or stressed to the max. But it is FINE. You're doing great!

8. Waiting until the night before to study for an exam

Giphy

Let's face it, if you don't know it while you're studying the night before, you probably won't remember it in six hours for the exam. Good luck, and do a full send.

9. "Sorry, you don't have anymore flex left."

Giphy

You've finally run out of flex dollars, and we all feel for you. Just hold out a little bit longer until you're home and maybe you'll find some money you forgot about!

10. Bye-bye school, hello home-cooked meals

Giphy

Not that you don't love waiting in line for sub-par pizza slices practically every day, but you are finally home and can snack and relax all you want. You finally finished the semester, and you don't have to see another textbook for a month. Enjoy it because you deserve it!

25 Beatles Lyrics: Your Go-To Guide for Every Situation

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Waitlisted for a College Class? Here's What to Do!

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

And in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make

The sun is up, the sky is blue, it's beautiful and so are you

Love is old, love is new, love is all, love is you

There's nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be

Life is very short, and there's no time for fussing and fighting, my friend

He say, "I know you, you know me", One thing I can tell you is you got to be free

Oh please, say to me, You'll let me be your man. And please say to me, You'll let me hold your hand

It was twenty years ago today, Sgt. Pepper taught the band to play. They've been going in and out of style, but they're guaranteed to raise a smile

Living is easy with eyes closed, misunderstanding all you see

Can you hear me? When it rains and shine, it's just a state of mind

Little darling, it's been long cold lonely winter. Little darling, it feels like years since it' s been here. Here comes the sun, Here comes the sun, and I say it's alright

We danced through the night and we held each other tight, and before too long I fell in love with her. Now, I'll never dance with another when I saw her standing there

I love you, I love you, I love you, that's all I want to say

You say you want a revolution. Well you know, we all want to change the world

All the lonely people, where do they all come from. All the lonely people, where do they all belong

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends

Hey Jude, don't make it bad. Take a sad song and make it better

Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away. Now it looks as though they're here to stay. Oh, I believe in yesterday

And when the brokenhearted people, living in the world agree, there will be an answer, let it be.

And anytime you feel the pain, Hey Jude, refrain. Don't carry the world upon your shoulders

I'll give you all I got to give if you say you'll love me too. I may not have a lot to give but what I got I'll give to you. I don't care too much for money. Money can't buy me love

All you need is love, love is all you need

Whisper words of wisdom, let it be

Blackbird singing in the dead of night, Take these broken wings and learn to fly. All your life, You were only waiting for this moment to arise

Though I know I'll never lose affection, for people and things that went before. I know I'll often stop and think about them. In my life, I love you more

Obviously the best superpower.

There have been many lessons learned.

1. The importance of traditions.

2. How to be thankful for family and friends.

3. How to give back.

4. What the word "community" really means.

5. That it isn't about the destination, but the journey.

6. The consequences of making bad choices.

7. To trust people, until you have a reason not to.

8. To be welcoming and accepting of everyone.

9. How to be my own, individual person.

10. How to work for what I want.

11. How to be great at giving directions.

12. How to be humble.

13. To be well-rounded.

14. How to be great at conflict resolution.

15. The beauty of getting outside and exploring.

16. To be prepared for anything.

17. That you don't always have to do it alone.

18. How to be creative.

19. To brush off gossip.

I have never been so thankful to know you.
