It has come that time again. The time every college students anticipates with both excitement yet fear. The time to register for classes. It's an emotional rollercoaster no matter how prepared you think you are and usually goes a little something like this....

1. The Initial Panic Stage

[rebelmouse-proxy-image https://media.rbl.ms/image?u=%2Ffiles%2F2016%2F04%2F04%2F63595398000405537379379331_giphy.gif&ho=https%3A%2F%2Faz616578.vo.msecnd.net&s=113&h=84b21db5ecb75144cde9ed44a5d10ce5997fcf5e3440ac84d5c55f9361514e92&size=980x&c=1067945482 crop_info="%7B%22image%22%3A%20%22https%3A//media.rbl.ms/image%3Fu%3D%252Ffiles%252F2016%252F04%252F04%252F63595398000405537379379331_giphy.gif%26ho%3Dhttps%253A%252F%252Faz616578.vo.msecnd.net%26s%3D113%26h%3D84b21db5ecb75144cde9ed44a5d10ce5997fcf5e3440ac84d5c55f9361514e92%26size%3D980x%26c%3D1067945482%22%7D" expand=1]

This is the first wave of panic and is usually because you learn that registration opens the exact same time as your super intense and strict class. Just like Chandler, you have succumbed to the fear.

2. The Excitement Stage

[rebelmouse-proxy-image https://media.rbl.ms/image?u=%2Ffiles%2F2016%2F04%2F04%2F635953982014861431-1255955453_giphy.gif&ho=https%3A%2F%2Faz616578.vo.msecnd.net&s=427&h=c39e584736e01463e6cce39a0c78d073a418f8c8aac3301d1356498f973ffe0e&size=980x&c=898496427 crop_info="%7B%22image%22%3A%20%22https%3A//media.rbl.ms/image%3Fu%3D%252Ffiles%252F2016%252F04%252F04%252F635953982014861431-1255955453_giphy.gif%26ho%3Dhttps%253A%252F%252Faz616578.vo.msecnd.net%26s%3D427%26h%3Dc39e584736e01463e6cce39a0c78d073a418f8c8aac3301d1356498f973ffe0e%26size%3D980x%26c%3D898496427%22%7D" expand=1]

You're ready. Your computer is up, your ideal schedule is ready to go and mentally you may not really know what's going on but it's okay, you got this!

3. The "OMG it is time" Stage

[rebelmouse-proxy-image https://media.rbl.ms/image?u=%2Ffiles%2F2016%2F04%2F04%2F6359539841523292961215426743_giphy.gif&ho=https%3A%2F%2Faz616578.vo.msecnd.net&s=519&h=d52224304235343303ede010e9eee740d03c4fc7bccfb6af3c1fe926c21acfd4&size=980x&c=1915654830 crop_info="%7B%22image%22%3A%20%22https%3A//media.rbl.ms/image%3Fu%3D%252Ffiles%252F2016%252F04%252F04%252F6359539841523292961215426743_giphy.gif%26ho%3Dhttps%253A%252F%252Faz616578.vo.msecnd.net%26s%3D519%26h%3Dd52224304235343303ede010e9eee740d03c4fc7bccfb6af3c1fe926c21acfd4%26size%3D980x%26c%3D1915654830%22%7D" expand=1]

You're calm cool and collected... until the clock turns and registration has officially opened. War has begun.

4. The Mind Control Stage

[rebelmouse-proxy-image https://media.rbl.ms/image?u=%2Ffiles%2F2016%2F04%2F04%2F635953986577610816-1249508128_tumblr_ms1aoriFh11soayheo2_500.gif&ho=https%3A%2F%2Faz616578.vo.msecnd.net&s=113&h=ec5a7bbc47281eaa9a560b078bdfa5b50b1e071d55b6624236cca522fbebcdf8&size=980x&c=1030425157 crop_info="%7B%22image%22%3A%20%22https%3A//media.rbl.ms/image%3Fu%3D%252Ffiles%252F2016%252F04%252F04%252F635953986577610816-1249508128_tumblr_ms1aoriFh11soayheo2_500.gif%26ho%3Dhttps%253A%252F%252Faz616578.vo.msecnd.net%26s%3D113%26h%3Dec5a7bbc47281eaa9a560b078bdfa5b50b1e071d55b6624236cca522fbebcdf8%26size%3D980x%26c%3D1030425157%22%7D" expand=1]

At this point you realize that you are not the only person attempting to register for classes and the Internet is acting rather slow. Wouldn't it just be easier if all of these classes in your mind just magically transferred onto the computer.

5. The "Internet Broke And So Did I" Stage

[rebelmouse-proxy-image https://media.rbl.ms/image?u=%2Ffiles%2F2016%2F04%2F04%2F6359539880693909461288468696_chandler-blackout.gif&ho=https%3A%2F%2Faz616578.vo.msecnd.net&s=841&h=177482d3ac8ae02c0f7d06ef8aacf6d1d17a66f729ddbf96d4c7cdab27044eab&size=980x&c=3598336502 crop_info="%7B%22image%22%3A%20%22https%3A//media.rbl.ms/image%3Fu%3D%252Ffiles%252F2016%252F04%252F04%252F6359539880693909461288468696_chandler-blackout.gif%26ho%3Dhttps%253A%252F%252Faz616578.vo.msecnd.net%26s%3D841%26h%3D177482d3ac8ae02c0f7d06ef8aacf6d1d17a66f729ddbf96d4c7cdab27044eab%26size%3D980x%26c%3D3598336502%22%7D" expand=1]

Yes. The Internet has broken and has taken your soul with it. "Service Unavailable" is probably the worst message to appear on your screen at this moment.

6. The "Back-up Life Plan" Stage

[rebelmouse-proxy-image https://media.rbl.ms/image?u=%2Ffiles%2F2016%2F04%2F04%2F6359539919936354391294151960_anigif_enhanced-buzz-6972-1368221366-1_preview-1.gif&ho=https%3A%2F%2Faz616578.vo.msecnd.net&s=250&h=4b514b630c952ef50c9c311592183d80ce375b84249da5e852993b5ba5b7988d&size=980x&c=1600107417 crop_info="%7B%22image%22%3A%20%22https%3A//media.rbl.ms/image%3Fu%3D%252Ffiles%252F2016%252F04%252F04%252F6359539919936354391294151960_anigif_enhanced-buzz-6972-1368221366-1_preview-1.gif%26ho%3Dhttps%253A%252F%252Faz616578.vo.msecnd.net%26s%3D250%26h%3D4b514b630c952ef50c9c311592183d80ce375b84249da5e852993b5ba5b7988d%26size%3D980x%26c%3D1600107417%22%7D" expand=1]

Well, the one class that you needed to take to graduate college is full. Might as well drop out and college and reevaluate your whole life now that you can't take that one single class. It's the only option left.

7. The "Everyone Is Evil" Stage

[rebelmouse-proxy-image https://media.rbl.ms/image?u=%2Ffiles%2F2016%2F04%2F04%2F6359539946842921971224712908_635781957954588342-1007227290_hell.gif&ho=https%3A%2F%2Faz616578.vo.msecnd.net&s=52&h=148dd909c01ba1526f75132c9a3bfd1caa3e387bbac9daf5b5ec9b16716eb204&size=980x&c=917783038 crop_info="%7B%22image%22%3A%20%22https%3A//media.rbl.ms/image%3Fu%3D%252Ffiles%252F2016%252F04%252F04%252F6359539946842921971224712908_635781957954588342-1007227290_hell.gif%26ho%3Dhttps%253A%252F%252Faz616578.vo.msecnd.net%26s%3D52%26h%3D148dd909c01ba1526f75132c9a3bfd1caa3e387bbac9daf5b5ec9b16716eb204%26size%3D980x%26c%3D917783038%22%7D" expand=1]

No, I do not want to hear about how you got every single class you wanted without any trouble!

8. The "Self-Loathing" Stage

[rebelmouse-proxy-image https://media.rbl.ms/image?u=%2Ffiles%2F2016%2F04%2F04%2F635954002148200868-1720626024_635945566784454465-915551161_tumblr_mtwtnlHroW1qknju7o1_500.gif&ho=https%3A%2F%2Faz616578.vo.msecnd.net&s=815&h=a658e27a28e1f744abaeef9d93e5a34441846035193d0323e4f15a7e0aafe613&size=980x&c=1904977891 crop_info="%7B%22image%22%3A%20%22https%3A//media.rbl.ms/image%3Fu%3D%252Ffiles%252F2016%252F04%252F04%252F635954002148200868-1720626024_635945566784454465-915551161_tumblr_mtwtnlHroW1qknju7o1_500.gif%26ho%3Dhttps%253A%252F%252Faz616578.vo.msecnd.net%26s%3D815%26h%3Da658e27a28e1f744abaeef9d93e5a34441846035193d0323e4f15a7e0aafe613%26size%3D980x%26c%3D1904977891%22%7D" expand=1]

You decide it's just easier to accept the reality that everything is clearly your fault. Why? Why did you decide to major in this specific subject that requires you to take these specific classes? Yes, it clearly is because you hate yourself and don't want any social life whatsoever.

9. The "Everything Will Be Okay" Stage

[rebelmouse-proxy-image https://media.rbl.ms/image?u=%2Ffiles%2F2016%2F04%2F04%2F635954000548037367-1392064164_giphy.gif&ho=https%3A%2F%2Faz616578.vo.msecnd.net&s=573&h=f362afe6d2f539e2006d4f1b259d5f2e6350913656088df1ea2ebc5b5c3c0352&size=980x&c=749469977 crop_info="%7B%22image%22%3A%20%22https%3A//media.rbl.ms/image%3Fu%3D%252Ffiles%252F2016%252F04%252F04%252F635954000548037367-1392064164_giphy.gif%26ho%3Dhttps%253A%252F%252Faz616578.vo.msecnd.net%26s%3D573%26h%3Df362afe6d2f539e2006d4f1b259d5f2e6350913656088df1ea2ebc5b5c3c0352%26size%3D980x%26c%3D749469977%22%7D" expand=1]

At least this is what you need to tell yourself as you sign up for classes that have absolutely nothing to do with your major or life choices. But it's all okay, right?

10. The Acceptance Stage

[rebelmouse-proxy-image https://media.rbl.ms/image?u=%2Ffiles%2F2016%2F04%2F04%2F6359540043220930371823089112_giphy.gif&ho=https%3A%2F%2Faz616578.vo.msecnd.net&s=180&h=308beba2dd192c92b6955aeceef8f81126a0ec96e613c8ad02dc8431fcd84b46&size=980x&c=544382338 crop_info="%7B%22image%22%3A%20%22https%3A//media.rbl.ms/image%3Fu%3D%252Ffiles%252F2016%252F04%252F04%252F6359540043220930371823089112_giphy.gif%26ho%3Dhttps%253A%252F%252Faz616578.vo.msecnd.net%26s%3D180%26h%3D308beba2dd192c92b6955aeceef8f81126a0ec96e613c8ad02dc8431fcd84b46%26size%3D980x%26c%3D544382338%22%7D" expand=1]

Well, nothing you can do now. You got some of the classes you wanted at least right? Time to let the stress and tension that just erupted within you for the past twenty minutes fade into the background for a few months before you're right back here again... that sounds like a good idea.

14 of the Most Revolutionary Short Films of All Time
JoinOneLove

Today's society places a ridiculous amount of importance on social media and what we see on our computer screens. Some of these short films you might have seen shared on Facebook. Some of them you may have never even heard of. Whatever the case may be, these productions have used thier position of power in our world today to spread a message. The messages vary from domestic violence, LGBTQ acceptance, self-love, the role of men in society to end the unfair treatment towards women and even the promotion of the furtherence of medical discovery in our country. Regardless of the message, each film advertises something that needs far more screen time than Victoria's Secret Fashion shows or Keeping Up With The Kardashians. Here are 14 of the best and most revolutionary short films to date:

Airports

Because the best part of flying isn't the flying.

Airports
Google Images

I’m not sure that many would consider their airport experience to be “fun.” It is either boredom or panic, layovers so long that you forget what the outside world looks like or connections that are made by the skin of your teeth. It is the decision between buying expensive food and starving; it is hunting for outlets (because the airports I’ve been in seem to have about five); it is the stress of making it through security without being that person who holds up everyone else. In short, it is stressful and time-consuming.

New millennial jargon seems to arise everyday, one of the newest being “daddy." While people have always said things like “sugar daddy" or “come to daddy" (which sounds a tad creepy to me...okay, a lot creepy), now just referring to an attractive man or one's boyfriend/husband as simply “daddy" has become the norm. *Gag*

Clarity To Confusion

How I lost my certainty of the future.

Clarity To Confusion
Mercedes-Benz

Last year, I knew exactly what I would be doing with my life. Not just what major I wanted, although, I did know exactly what I was going to major in during college. I went further, though, and knew exactly what I wanted to do with it. I aimed to be a book editor and use my French and English majors to go into technical editing after going to grad school. Yet this semester, disenchantment hit. I had no clue what I wanted to do with my life anymore. I still loved the idea of being a book editor. I still loved reading. I just couldn't feel any passion towards the courses I had to take this semester. They were amazing, but they didn't excite me the way courses I would love should. They didn't inspire feelings of amazement at how awesome my major is. It was then I realized maybe my major wasn't for me.

The Procrastination Station At College

We all have checked into "Procrastination Station" more than once..

The Procrastination Station At College
Achieve Center - Wendy Loewen

In high school, being a procrastinator wasn't that big of a deal in my own opinion. But coming from a school that didn't really have strict deadlines on things, meaning you basically got points for turning it in be it exactly on or before the deadline, or 4 weeks later when you realize your grade needs to be raised up. So, when I came to college, I knew it would be different. It hasn't really been hard transitioning into a good student when it comes to out of class work and projects, but it hasn't been that easy either. I will use myself for example. I am enrolled in Introduction to Public Speaking, and it's not that is a hard class, because it isn't, but I just get lost in other things and before I knew it, I had to present a persuasive speech the next day. I also realized this at about 11:15 the night before, and had about half of my outlines done, and my visual aid hadn't been started on. Though I got it done, I promised myself that I would not ever just wait until the last minute with specifically this class, but with any other class also. After that little dilemma, I decided to look for ways that I could get things done in a timely manner. So, here I have listed a few things that I now use in order to get things done before the deadline so that I do not have to rush and worry about it the night before:
