13 Signs You're From Fairfield County

1. Every time your watch a Real Housewives show, you wonder why there isn't one for Fairfield County.

I mean have you seen these women?????

2. The second you enter Fairfield County, the amount of Jeep Wranglers goes up 10x, and most of the drivers are dads.

#Jeepwave

3. Every guy in your high school played lacrosse or football.

And most of them thought they were going D1.......... lol.

4. You spend your summers in Nantucket, Cape Cod, and Block Island.


5. In high school you would cross the border into New York just to buy beer.

Somehow 15 year olds figured out that New York liquor stores would let them buy 30s of Natty without getting carded.


6. Your childhood summers were spent at the snack bar of your country club eating endless chicken fingers and grilled cheeses.

Your family's number is engrained into your mind forever.

7. You spent all your money in Westport or Greenwich.

Brandy Melville, Oddz, LF, LuluLemon, Urban Outfitters only.

8. Your town has a designated hungover breakfast deli.

Every time you go there you see everyone you ever went to high school with. Shoutout CT Coffee.

9. It takes you 20 minutes to get to your friends house in the same town because of all the windy backroads.

If you can learn to drive on the streets of FFC, you can handle anything life throws at you.


10. You navigate any road trip based on the Merritt or I-95.

Everyone has a favorite.

11. Trying to catch the last train home from New York City on the New Haven line is an art form.

ITS 1:47 OUR TRAIN IS LEAVING GRAND CENTRAL IN 20 MINUTES. MY MOM IS GOING TO KILL ME IF I MISS THIS TRAIN.

12. You made sure to go to the one Alive @ 5 Thursday with a relevant artist.

And odds are that you have no memory of being there.

13. 203 over 860 any day.

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.
