15 Thoughts Every College Student Will Have, Told By The Cast Of 'Friends'

"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.

Giphy

"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?"

Giphy

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.

Giphy

"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.

Giphy

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.

Giphy

"Did we even learn about that?"

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

Giphy

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.

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.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

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.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
