11 People You See At The Gym
Her campus

The gym is a scary place to go. Everyone assumes that it's full of fit athletic people who judge you for your 12 minute mile on the treadmill or that you're only lifting 5 pound weights. There is a common misconception that the gym is an exclusive club of attractive people working out together. However, this is completely wrong. The gym is just full of weird people who are just focusing on their own workout.

1. The person who gets too into their music

This may be on the person on the treadmill next to you who gets a little bit too into their running playlist. Everyone loves "Sorry" by Justin Bieber, but no one wants to hear your off key version while you're running.

2. The impressive male athlete

This is the guy that every girl wants to date or at least hook up with. He's probably doing some really cool workout over by the free weights

3. The impressive female athlete

This is the girl that every girl wants to be and every guy wants to be with. How does this girl literally make everything look like a Livestrong ad?

4. The person who tries too hard

Okay just because 450 pounds are there, doesn't mean that anyone should lift it.

5. The person who doesn't try at all

This is the person who kinda just stands around and pretends to work our or walk on the treadmill for 5 minutes at a 2.5 mph speed and then leave.

6. The overly sexual person

This is the person who groans a little each to they lift. They wear basically nothing to the gym, and they work out in front of the mirror and snap the ocassional selfie.

7. The thirsty onlooker

This is the person who literally watches everyone. They look at your machine and your butt.

8. The beauty queen

This is the person who wears a full face of makeup and has perfect hair. Ponytail optional.

9. The lunkhead

This is the person who only has one thing in mind. Lifting weights. This is the kind of person that has the "I pick things up. I put things down" manta.

10. The person who doesn't know how to gym

Oh... Please stop.

11. The person who really doesn't know how to gym

Well... at least they're at the gym.

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.
