Do you ever feel like you’re experiencing a midlife crisis, despite the fact that you haven’t even reached 25 yet? So does Patrick Star (even though he’s actually 40). Here's 13 times Patrick Star really spoke to your young adult soul.

1. When you’re halfway to a bachelor’s degree

2. When you have that one seemingly brilliant idea

"We should take Bikini Bottom, and push it somewhere else!"

3. Then your friends critique said idea

4. And you realize, maybe said idea isn’t as bright as you thought

"Well, maybe it is stupid, but it's also dumb."

5. When your roommates steal your very last cup of Instant Ramen


6. You really realize you’re an ‘adult’ when you get disproportionately excited about sales at the Home Goods store


7. Professors/employers/family members/generally everyone in your life expecting you to act your age

"Being grown up is boring. I love being a baby. Besides, I don't get jazz."

8. Wondering how your life spiraled out of control


"It's the perfect crime!"

9. Not having appropriate coping skills for any amount of stress:

10. Getting a little too philosophical from time to time

"You mean they're taking the thoughts we think we thought and making them thoughts we think we thought... I think?"

11. Procrastinating everything until the very last minute, then taking yourself way too seriously


12. Being harsh on yourself, but never on your friends

13. Maybe this is the best option


Despite your troubles, at least you have the comfort of knowing that a fictitious sea creature feels the same way as you do. Hang in there!

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.

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.
