15 Times Nick Miller Described Coming Home From College

In This Article:

Over winter break, I have finished "New Girl" for a second time, and I quickly realized how often I related to Nick Miller just to being home and a college student. Here are 15 times I think we can all relate to.

1. When your family all shows up to welcome you home.

The family either all shows up at once, takes you to dinner, or just shows up randomly throughout your break. Maybe it's just because it's a shock that you're actually home.

2. And then they ask you about all you have learned this year.

You'd honestly love to tell them, but you probably don't remember already.

3.  Or about projects your classes have required of you.

The project bored you the first time you were preparing and presenting it. "Please don't make me do it again."

4. You also can't forget them asking you about every boy you've posted a picture with.

You can be friends with the opposite sex. It's normal, I promise.

5. Getting updated on all the town drama

Whoa wait, she married him? Who's pregnant?

6. "When are you going to get a boyfriend?"

Good question that I don't know the answer to. Let me know if you find it.

6. "But you're so beautiful, how do you not have one?"

Thanks for the confidence boost, grandma. I wish boys saw that too.

8. When you're planning to go see your friends from college.

You've only been gone for like a week, but you miss your people a little too much to not make plans.

9. When someone makes a comment about your college weight gain, and you're trying to get fit before the next semester.

Well, you can't count how many nights you've stress-ate due to a project being due while watching Netflix. You didn't have time for the gym, sorry.

10. "Wow, college has really changed you." 

i.gifer.com

You were honestly the exact same in high school. A bit more sociable, maybe, but thanks for the compliment.

11. When you meet up with high school friends, and you both know little things that add up to a big thing.

66.media.tumblr.com

No wait, that's why they broke up? THAT'S why she changed colleges?

12. Then you hear all the stuff that you've 'done' since going to college.

You really don't even know how they came up with this stuff. You don't talk to any of them.

13. Then you hear about how some of your classmates have their lives together so much more than you do. 

49.media.tumblr.com

Some are working, some are in the military, and you, you barely ever even make it to that 8 a.m. that you swore would be fine.

14. When you realize you don't have any responsibilities to school anymore.

37.media.tumblr.com

Sleep til noon? Stay up late? Rewatch all your Netflix shows? Go for it, you're only free for so long.

15. When it is time to go back to college.

You're beyond excited, but you can't show exactly how excited you are because people may be upset about you leaving.

April Ludgate

Every college student knows and understands the struggle of forcing themselves to continue to care about school. Between the piles of homework, the hours of studying and the painfully long lectures, the desire to dropout is something that is constantly weighing on each and every one of us, but the glimmer of hope at the end of the tunnel helps to keep us motivated. While we are somehow managing to stay enrolled and (semi) alert, that does not mean that our inner-demons aren't telling us otherwise, and who is better to explain inner-demons than the beloved April Ludgate herself? Because of her dark-spirit and lack of filter, April has successfully been able to describe the emotional roller-coaster that is college on at least 13 different occasions and here they are.

For many undergraduates across the nation, the home stretch has begun. Only one more semester remains in our undergraduate career. Oh, the places we will go! For the majority of college seniors, this is simultaneously the best and worst year out of the past four and here’s why.

1. The classes you are taking are actually difficult.

A schedule full of easy pottery throwing and film courses is merely a myth on the average campus. With all of those prerequisites for the upper-level courses and the never-ending battle you fight each year during registration for limited class seats, senior year brings with it the ability to register for the final courses you need to fulfill your major. Yet, these are not the easy entry level courses. These are the comprehensive, end of major, capstone courses designed to apply the knowledge from all your previous courses, usually in the form of an extensive research paper or engaged learning project. The upside is you actually probably really enjoy these classes but alas there is no room for slackers here.

Because Chandler Bing should be everyone's spirit animal.

Chandler Bing
Zimbio

Ah, Ms. Chanandler Bong, or Chandler Bing as he is better known as. For 10 years, Chandler brought us many laughs, many tears, and, well, Matthew Perry's fame. He is, personally, my favorite character on "Friends" because he made me laugh more than any other character on the show and I felt like I could relate to him more than the other characters on the show. Anyway, here are 10 Chandler Bing quotes that anyone can relate to... or graduates can at least...
