A week ago #JonasBlizzard2016 (literally) took the world by storm. Our feeds were chock-full of hilarious Jo Bro gifs, artsy snow pics, and most importantly, Tian Tian the panda. Tian Tian, one of the pandas from the Smithsonian’s National Zoo, woke up one morning to snow. To say he was stoked is an understatement. We’ve all had moments when we felt on top of the world like Tian Tian did in this aww-worthy video. Here are some of the best moments when Tian Tian’s excitement truly resonated with us.

You know you’re Tian Tian when…

  • You get to sleep in without waking up to an alarm
  • You wake up in the middle of the night and realize you still have a few hours left to sleep
  • The next season of your favorite show is on Netflix
  • Avocados are 10 for $10 at Publix
  • You walk by a really cute dog and make eye contact
  • You walk by a really cute boy and make eye contact
  • You get all the classes you need for the semester
  • Your professor has a hot pepper on ratemyprofessor.com
  • Your professor doesn’t require you to buy a textbook for your class
  • The professor for your 3 hour lecture lets you out of class early
  • You get an assigned group for a semester-long project and they actually seem competent 
  • A cute boy sits next to you in class
  • Said boy strikes up a conversation with you
  • Said boy asks you to study together at a coffee shop

  • Your PB&J has the perfect peanut butter to jelly ratio
  • Your selfie comes out flawless the first time

Jess Hecht is a senior at UCF studying Human Communication with a Mass Communication concentration. When Jess is not creating content or traveling with her job at Feeding Children Everywhere, you can most likely find her on Pinterest looking at inspirational quotes and photos of dogs, or planning her next trip to Zambia. Some of her favorite pastimes include camping out for hours on end at Barnes & Noble with a reading list longer than the Chipotle line, smelling every candle at Bath & Body Works, and adding to her collection of journals (20 and counting, since you were curious). If binge-watching Lifetime movies was an olympic sport, you best believe that gold medal would have Jess' name written all over it.
