Schmidt is a national treasure.

15 Times Schmidt Accurately Described College Life

For anyone who has ever watched "New Girl" (if you haven't, what are you doing with your life?), they know that Schmidt is by far the best character on the show. As the resident douchebag, he constantly has some sort of witty comeback, outrageous story or, as you'll see below, hilarious one-liners. His best quotes are somewhat ridiculous, but gosh dangit if they aren't absolutely hilarious, and to be perfectly honest, isn't college also somewhat ridiculous and hilarious?

1. "I'm gonna really need you to step it up tonight. When I see you, I wanna be thinking, who let the dirty slut out of the slut house?"

When you and your girlfriends get ready go to your first frat party.

2. "I don't celebrate Christmas. Or as I like to call it, 'White Anglo Saxon Winter Privilege Night'."

When you find out that your college doesn't cancel class for Jewish holidays.

3. "The economy stinks, the bees are dying, and movies are pretty much all sequels now."

Your mood after you fail the test you have been studying two weeks for.

4. "I can do anything I put my mind to. I once figured out Alyssa Milano's phone number just by randomly choosing numbers."

When you pull yourself out of your post-test-failing depression with a newfound determination to succeed.

5. "I'm a squirrel. You're my nut. Winter's coming I'm gonna store you in my cheek, girl."

When cuffing season rolls around.

6. "If I pee while it's happening, will she die?"

When you have to take your required sexual heath workshops.

7. "She's on a flip phone, Jess. I mean, she's either poor or a time traveler." 

When you finally get out of your little suburban bubble and find out that not everyone had a car in high school...gasp.

8. "What if Nick gets into an accident? What if he's horribly disfigured and I have to identify him, and all that remains are his private parts? And I'm standing there and I'm saying, 'Sorry officer, I can't help you because no, I haven't seen his penis.' And then boom, he's buried in an unmarked grave."

When you're just trying to get close to your new friends.

9. "Can we just take a moment to celebrate me?" 

When you shockingly make it to all of your classes that week and it feels like the greatest accomplishment of your life.

10. "Pine has no place in this house, it's the wood of poor people and outhouses." 

When you try to give your apartment/dorm an aesthetic but know nothing about aesthetic.

11. "Sometimes, I just think I'm a riddle that even I can't solve." 

When people know what their major is and have their life planned ten years into the future and you don't even know what you want to eat for breakfast.

12. "Well you have found my flabbergast button, and guess what? You've pressed it." 

When someone tells you that they don't drink coffee.

13. "Statistically speaking, every American thinks about Abraham Lincoln at least once a day."

When you visit home for the first time since going to college and you want to impress your family with how much you know now.

14. "Girl, 'Imma marry you." 

When Brad or Chad make eye contact with you for .02 seconds.

15. "I just want to come home, put on my 'mono and just hang loose, man." 

When the sweet, glorious taste of Friday finally comes.

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

sisters
Taylor Hooper

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.

If you’re anything like me, you love a good cup of coffee. My coffee always comes from Starbucks; I refuse to drink it from anywhere else. Over the years, it’s become one of my biggest addictions. So, if you are aware that you’re a Starbucks addict as well, or maybe you need to check to see if you’re an addict, here are seven ways to tell.
