The End Of The Year As Told By "Friends"

So, no one told you life was gonna be this way...

The End Of The Year As Told By "Friends"
NBC network

Finally, there is only about a month left till this college semester comes to a close. Seniors are preparing for graduation and freshman are thankful for surviving this year of change. The spring semester seems to go by so fast but there is still so much left to be done. I cannot completely describe my first year but the word "different" definitely seems to cover a majority of it. To better express this entire year, especially as it is wrapping up, I can relate it to one of my favorite shows of all time: Friends.

1. Trying to convince yourself you can complete all your work

Everyone knows the feeling when you have 3 papers, 2 assignments, a presentation, finals, and 8 quizzes to complete in the next two weeks. This semester is filled with tons of assigned work from your professors. If I did not procrastinate so much I could probably finish at a decent time.

2. Enjoying the spring weather

Finally winter and its freezing temperatures has come to an end. It will feel so nice to walk around campus without my hands feeling like icicles. Soon it will be time to sit out by the pool and work on trying to add color to my pasty skin.

3. Figuring out how to spend the rest of your life (particularly seniors).

There is still tons of things to prepare for as the school year comes to an end. You need to make sure to tie up any loose ends. Why doesn't adulthood come with an instruction manual?

4. When you finish your last test

It is about time. As finals come to an end all your hard works have paid off and you don't have to worry about trying to prepare for the next lecture. Finals are exhausting but there is no better feeling than when you turn in the last one for the semester.

5. Class. Registration.

I don't even like waking up for 9 am lecture, it is bad enough to get up early and try to snag a spot in your classes. There is meticulous planning that goes into prepping for registration day and nothing is worse than having a class filled, having to take a late night class, or being waitlisted. Lets have a moment of silence for those who battled it out trying to create the perfect schedule and failed.

6. Saying goodbye to your newly found friends

If I haven't said it a million times, it has been one crazy year. However, here's to all the new friends you made that helped you along the journey. I know there are many more memories to come but until then, I hope life stays kind to you.

I wish all the seniors the best of luck in their future careers as this semester finishes. College is already flying by like high school did but there is still so much to look forward to. Just a few more weeks and summer vacation begins.

Summer is hot and humid, and it's almost like summer was made specifically to drink the refreshing, cold, crisp wonderful, delicious, nutritious nectar of the gods. Which is none other than beer; wonderful cold beer. With summer playing peek-a-boo around the corner while we finish up this semester, it's time to discuss the only important part of summer. And if you haven't already guessed, it's beer. There are few things I take more seriously than my beer, in order are: sports... and beer. Here are my favorite summer brews:

Bruce Springsteen's Top 7 Lyrics

Everything Bruce says in his classic rock songs.

Anyone who was born and raised in New Jersey (or anywhere really) knows of Bruce Springsteen, whether or not they like him is a whole other situation. I hope that his hundreds of classic rock songs and famous high energy performances, even in his sixties he can put on better concerts than people half his age, are at least recognizable to people of all ages. Love him or hate him (I identify with the former) you have to admit that some of his songs and interviews have inspirational quotes and lyrics.

New England Summers Are The BEST Summers

Why you should spend your next summer in New England.

Marconi Beach

Three years ago, I chose to attend college in Philadelphia, approximately 360 miles away from my small town in New Hampshire. I have learned many valuable lessons away from home, and have thoroughly enjoyed my time spent in Pennsylvania. One thing that my experience has taught me, however, is that it is absolutely impossible to beat a New England summer.

You cannot beat the beach. Believe it or not (which many people may not), New England has a long and beautiful coastline. Most of my high school summers were spent sitting on the Wall at Hampton Beach, getting sunburnt and eating Acai bowls from The Secret Spot. The Wall was the place to be both during the day and at night. We begin our days there with a KB's bagel and coffee, and end them with pizza and ice cream. It’s not a New England summer without that 4 p.m. text from someone, “Who wants to meet at the Wall tonight?” Nighttime is for Tripoli’s Pizza, the sound of waves, and wishes on shooting stars. Wednesday nights are especially important, as those are the nights that Hampton Beach sets off the weekly firework display.
