13 Signs You Gladly Defy The 'Typical College Girl' Label

There's two types of college girls in the world: the typical college girls and the not-so-typical college girls. Chances are if you're a typical college girl, you already know that. This article is to identify those of you who don't know where you fall.

1. You either: A) have never had a PSL or B) don't like PSLs

There is nothing wrong with not falling into the ever so popular trends of Starbucks drinks and there is absolutely nothing wrong with not wanting to.

2. Leggings aren't a staple in your wardrobe.

If you're anything like me, you would much rather wear ACTUAL JEANS than anything else.

3. You don't have monograms on... well, anything.

Sometimes less is more. Instead of cluttering things up with stickers and monograms, you like a sleek, more clean look on your belongings.

4. No matter what anyone says, you will never drink a Natty Light in your life.

Those things are disgusting and for those of you who drink them... HOW? Natty Light makes me want to barf even more than going to hard with the vodka.

5. Instead of partying, you'd much rather stay in and chill with some Netflix binging.

With all of the horror stories that I've heard from friends and one personal experience, I have no idea why people WANT to get drunk. It's not fun...?

6. You don't believe in the hookup culture.

Not everyone does, and let me repeat myself from number 1, that is perfectly okay! Your body, your choice.

7. You don't own anything Vineyard Vines, Duck, Hunter, or Michael Kors.

Why spend all that money when something similar is sitting at Wal-Mart or Target for 75% less? I will never understand.

8. You have no clue how to do makeup in the ~cool~ way.

What's contour? Highlighter? Never heard of them. All you need is some mascara and chapstick and you're ready to go.

9. You can't bring yourself to become a lampshader.

Lampshader: someone who wears oversized T-shirts with Nike shorts which you cannot see because the shirt is so oversized.

10. You don't have a VSCO , you hardly post on Instagram, and you only get on twitter to watch the Vine videos.

~RIP Vine~. I will never understand the hassle of VSCO. Never have and never will. P.S. Why tweet with 280 characters when "I don't care" is only 13?

11. Beyoncé is not the Queen.

Sure, she's great. Great voice, hair, family, life, but you just don't see the hype.

12. You aren't up-to-date on your music.

You've had the same playlist with minor variations for years. Why change it now?

13. You've never watched "Grey's Anatomy."

Not even a single episode. You feel as if you're not missing much. Trust me, you aren't.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
