Senior Year Told By Kelly From 'The Office'

Kelly Kapoor, you really speak to me.

Senior Year Told By Kelly From 'The Office'
NBC

For those fellow Office lovers, I think we can all agree on a few things. For one, Dwight Schrute is one of the most obnoxious characters on the show but we truly love him. Two, Jim and Pam are serious friendship/relationship/marriage goals. And three, I would never, ever, ever want to work for Michael Scott.

There's one character in the show, however, that I feel like a lot of us can relate to the most. She's brutally honest, though a tad eccentric, but I can forever see myself connecting with her.

As I end my college career from Florida State, my last semester is starting to resemble a lot like the life of Kelly Kapoor's character in The Office. Mindy Kaling, who plays Kelly, is also a writer and producer for the show, so we can thank her for all of our unhealthy obsessions for it. I think I've seen the series at least three times through.

Sometimes we don't want it to admit it, but Kelly is a lot like us final semester seniors.

When formal is in a day, you don't have a dress, or even a date, because SYFI and you put everything 'til last minute. But you convince yourself that you are going to look hot regardless of all of that.


You realize you're about to graduate, so you should probably start to get your life and health together, hit the gym, and get rid of those boxes of mac and cheese. I feel you here Kelly.

It's your senior year, last semester, and you don't the time for a boyfriend. However you do have the time for lots of "dating!"

When you roll up in your fresh business attire with a fat stack of resumes at the Seminole Futures Career Fair.

When someone asks you your plans after college, and you have no idea, so this is the only response that you can come up with.

When someone has the audacity to ask you if you've finished that homework assignment. Like, no, I have not, I still have two more hours until it's due.

Like, a decision needs to be made. Do I get up and attend my 9 am? Or will I gave negative points in participation?

Thank you, Kelly Kapoor, to being the most relatable person on this show. Thank you for all of the advice that you have given us about life.

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.
