15 Thoughts Every College Student Will Have, Told By The Cast Of 'Friends'
Warner Bros. Television

In This Article:

"Adulting" is hard. All of us college students typically face the same struggles. The cast of "Friends" couldn't be more relatable when it comes to the ups and downs of life, especially while in college.

Realizing the three assignments you put aside last week are all due by midnight.

"I mean seriously, what did I do to deserve this?"

When that one annoying classmate answers every single question the professor asks.

Giphy

No one cares if you know the answer so please just put your hand down.

When you've been countlessly asked, "So what's your plan for after college?"

I still don't know what I'm doing with my life since the last time you asked.

When your teacher actually expects you to do work over spring break.

Giphy

Do they really think I'm opening my backpack over break? Let's be real.

To the group members who don't help AT ALL.

"When I die, I want the people I did group projects with to lower me into my grave, so they can let me down one last time."

When you're already late for class and it seems like your luck couldn't get any worse.

Giphy

Just what I need; another thing to go wrong in my life!

Waking up from a nap not caring about the hours of work you have to do later.

Things I would rather be doing than working on school; anything else.

When you're signing up for classes and all the ones you want keep closing.

Giphy

Ah, you've got to love the gut-wrenching feeling you get when you try to enroll in five classes and only get into one.

When you wake up in the morning after you went out on Thursday night.

Giphy

"No one looks back on their life and remembers the night they got plenty of sleep."

When the test material doesn't correspond with anything you learned.

"Did we even learn about that?"

After you just had a mental breakdown and everyone keeps asking if you're OK.

Those days when you're just physically, emotionally, and mentally drained.

When you go to your morning lecture with the worst hangover.

Giphy

Even if you don't listen, sometimes you're just so proud of yourself for showing up at all.

Coming to class and seeing someone in your seat.

Giphy

No one liked assigned seating in high school, but in college, everyone knows that once you choose a seat you stay in it.

When you're waiting for your professor to "officially" dismiss your class.

Giphy

Nothing is worse than being trapped in your class that ended minutes ago.

When you're having a mid-college crisis and you don't have anything figured out.

Giphy

When you've been taking college "day-by-day" but all of a sudden you're halfway done and don't even know if you like your major.

All of these quotes perfectly sum up the college struggle. The characters of Friends have all experienced the same rollercoaster of thoughts and emotions college students encounter on a daily basis.

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.
