It's that time of year again - the beginning of the semester, when you're reunited with your best friends and copious amounts of alcohol, when homework is optional and partying on a Wednesday is encouraged. It's Finals Week's hotter, sweeter, and wildly more fun older sister, who welcomes you back to school with open arms.

When you roll into class with your friends

When the professor hands out your syllabus

When you run into your ex outside Starbucks

When you have to introduce yourself to the class

When you finish your last class of the first day

When you rediscover the dining hall and its endless, free food

When your squad judges everyone in the room

When it's time to get ready for your first night back

When you and your friends look hot as hell

When you realize your tolerance has plummeted since last semester

When you have to walk three miles home from the party

When you walk into the wrong class

When the know-it-all/teachers pet reveal themselves

When you kiss your crush at a party

When your friend goes home with a thirty year old

When a stranger starts talking about things you did together last year

When you survive your first week of "classes"

When you realize it's finally Friday
