Types Of F-R-I-E-N-D-S In College

Even if you yourself aren't a Joey, a Rachel, a Monica, a Chandler, a Ross, or a Phoebe, you definitely know at least one person who is.

In honor of Jenifer Aniston finally making an Instagram account (and breaking the Internet by getting to over 5 million followers in one day...), I thought I would discuss the many types of "F R I E N D S" in college. Even if you yourself aren't a Joey, a Rachel, a Monica, a Chandler, a Ross, or a Phoebe, you definitely know at least one person who is.

1. The Joey

Giphy

Ahh, Joey, one of the best characters of all time… You can easily find a "Joey" in your friend group seeing as if Joey's personality is kind of one of any stereotypical college boy ever. This type can be spotted in the all-you-can-eat cafeteria all day long, hitting on all of the incoming freshmen and skipping class. But, despite the fact that he will probably try and hit on every girl in your friend group, everyone loves him to death.

2. The Rachel

Giphy

A "Rachel" character, also known in her college years as a Kappa sister, can be found at any Greek Life event. She lives in her sorority house and has so many friends! She is stylish and trendy as heck and is definitely an ambassador for your college town's local boutique.

3. The Monica

Giphy

The "Monica" is definitely the mom-friend. She will go out on the town with her friends but will never be caught drinking because somehow she is always the DD. She will be there to help you get that stain out of your favorite blouse, using her d-i-y stain eraser, or to help pick out a work-out regimen perfect for your lifestyle.

The Chandler

Giphy

A "Chandler" can be caught at any party trying… and failing… at getting girls. He is definitely in a band and every Friday night posts an invite to the bar he is playing at, on his snap story. He is kind of an odd ball with his sense of humor, but no one could live without him.

The Ross

Giphy

The "Ross" is the friend that everyone loves, but never comes around because he is with his girlfriend. He is a double major in Biology and Paleontology, and is a TA for the freshmen Gen-Ed Bio classes. He honestly has the worst luck, but he keeps a good attitude. (Just don't let him go to get a spray tan…)

6. The Phoebe

Giphy

Phoebe is definitely one of my favorites. She is majoring in homeopathic medicine and can be found protesting about animal rights on the quad. She is a vegetarian and makes some incredible chocolate chip cookies. If you are ever feeling down, have her read your aura and she will be able to tell you exactly what is wrong and be able to prescribe an essential oil to fix it.

Here is to 25 more years of laughing with the iconic six.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

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.

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
