Ahh, spring. The birds are chirping, the grass is growing, the winter jackets get put away. What a great time of the year...well, not for everyone. Two words: Allergy. Season. If you're anything like me, you are suffering through this time of the year. Allergies are not only annoying, but they are disgusting. If you have allergies, you are very familiar with these 12 struggles.

1. You're that person in class who sniffles every five seconds during an exam.


2. Mucus. So. Much. Mucus.



4. You have a constant sore/scratchy throat, which makes you cough uncontrollably.


5. Sneezing fits, too. Can't forget those.


6. Zyrtec, Allegra, Benadryl, Flonase, Claritin, Mucinex. Sound familiar? They're your best friends.


7. And everyone thinks you're sick, so you have to constantly remind them it is just allergies. "No, for the last time, I'm not contagious."


8. "And no, I'm not crying either."


9. Want to go for a nice spring run and enjoy the nature? Think again. Going outside makes your eyes itch and your nose run.


10. And you're constantly coughing/sneezing up nasty things. Attractive.


11. The stuffy nose you have won't go away. You'll get one free nostril sometimes, if you're lucky.


12. When someone asks what you're allergic to, you always respond with: EVERYTHING.

They find that shirt that’s right in front of you, but just you can’t seem to find.

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
