Life Of A College Student As Told By 'Friends'

When "Friends" perfectly describes every detail in a college student's life.

Life Of A College Student As Told By 'Friends'

"Friends" is the classic TV show you lay on your couch for hours and binge-watch on Netflix. Since we all have watched hundreds of episodes, we can appreciate the show for what it is worth. Not only have we fallen in love with the cast of the show, but we have also had times where we catch ourselves saying, "Wow, I can totally relate."

Here are ten ways in which every college student can relate to "Friends."

1. Home-Cooked Meals

When you go home after eating college food for such a long time. Sorry stomach, we just love mom’s cooking too much.


2. Impossible Exam Questions

When you overthink a question on an exam because you just expect every question to be extremely difficult to the point where you don’t even know why you studied.


3. Being a Good Friend

When you have to break the bad news to your friend that she/he has officially been placed in the friend zone. What a rough time.


4. The Real World

We have all heard multiple people tell us the same thing. From professors, our parents, to students just out of college. No wonder why we struggle with the thought of graduating and being real adults. Apparently, life outside college is dreadfully awful.


5. Greek Life


What people think you say when you tell them you want to join Greek life. How misinformed and uneducated they are.


6. Finals Week

When finals week has you stressed out and you feel like you are losing your mind, you might actually be losing your mind.


7. Expectations from Professors


When the professor expects you to write five ten-page papers, present on a group project, and study for a final exam and then asks why you didn’t get the best grade, you’re just like…


8. Giving a Friend Advice


Trying to talk a friend through the stress of final exams. Sometimes, the advice you think is odd goes a long way.


9. Early Morning Classes


When someone asks why you didn’t register for an 8 a.m. class, this is what you say. It explains everything.


10. Appreciating Your Best Friends


When summer break comes and you realize just how incredibly lucky you are to have the most wonderful friends surrounding you. Hits you right in the feels.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
