Growing up, I used to love watching movies where the protagonist would move to a big city after they graduated high school and have these great adventures in an unfamiliar place.
Little did I know, things don't always play out like that in real life. When I moved to the U.S. as an international student, I felt like I was standing on shaky ground, thousands of miles away from what I knew and who I knew.

From "Girl Meets World" to "Riverdale," even without having anything in common with the characters on the screen, we still connect with them based on the sole fact that they were once students in middle school and high school too.
Well, we've gotten a little older, so here's a list of some of the good and decently accurate shows set in college that you might relate to right now.

I remember getting my first diary when I was 11 years old. I used to write about my daily adventures in hopes of my future biographer using excerpts from my entries. Cheesy, but what can I say? I was an ambitious kid.
Since then, writing has become my outlet. From silly "dear diary" entries during middle school to writing about my emotions every night, journaling has helped me heal through so much in my life.
It can certainly be challenging at times. Often, you don't want to acknowledge everyt
