14 Types of People You Meet in College
The Atlantic

In college, you meet all sorts of people. It’s the first time in life that people express their true personality, get involved in their passion and work toward their dream. Freshman year, it was a whole new ballpark. Each person seemed so different and unique. It seems hard to adjust with all these new strong personalities, but, as the years go on, you become a college expert. Here are some of the types of people you will meet in college.

1. Everyone’s Friend

There is always that person who walks around campus and knows everybody and their mama. Constantly with a smile, they are nice to each person on campus. Even though you don’t know them that well, they will treat you like their best friend. This is a quality person that you know will be successful from their continual kindness.

2. Pre-Med Or Die Student

Grey’s Anatomy started a beast. Pre-med students might have a little bit of Meredith Grey’s dark and twisty personality when it comes to competition, but deep down it’s because they have passion. These are dedicated people who are committed to struggle because of their dream.

3. Intense Hipster Music Lover

This person always has their headphones in and wouldn’t dare to be listening to mainstream music. They are always at a God-knows-who-this-band-is concert. They are always down to listen to new songs. This is the person that you want to be friends with because of their open mind. They are always open learn about new things and explore their musical taste.

4. The Person Who Lives In The Library

You have never seen this person anywhere other than the library. Insider secret, they live there. The library is their home from the college workload. A textbook makes a good pillow.

5. "Srat" Is Probably Her Middle Name

She is always with her sisters and reppin’ her letters. Her destiny was to be in a sorority. Thank God for college. You always see her in the newest srat trends. She is never behind in fashion or handing all her srat events. This girl knows how to have a good time with her sisters, whether it is day or night.

6. Frat Lord

Like the srat, brotherhood was his destiny. He lowkey would do anything for his frat, but doesn’t want to seem overattached. Often misjudged, this guys always know how to have a good convo. They are involved with their brotherhood and always know what’s poppin’ around campus.

7. College Glow Up

This person was invisible in high school. You didn’t notice this person which is your b. You should have, though, because this person is now basically a model. Never limit anybody. You never know where they might be in a few years.

8. Definitely Has Insomnia

You see this person all the time at night and during the day. You have no idea when this person sleeps. They always have a coffee or Monster in their hand. Teach me your ways.

9. Poli-Sci Campaign Manager

They always find a way to endorse their favorite politician. They know exactly what’s up in politics and can give you a full update with some of their opinion. You know you will have a full on debate with them if you begin to talk about politics.

10. Probably Will Be In The Olympics

Always in the gym, on a team or eating something healthy. This person is a walking Nike advertisement. How they do it? I don’t know. I need to be working out, but I’ll do it tomorrow.

11. Still Wearing Last Night’s Makeup

A little bit of eyeliner on from last night, but who cares? She always shares her best stories from the night before.

12. Premature Businessman

One day this person will look great in a suit. They are practically always professional and could sell you a sack of potatoes.

13. Die Hard Fan

Always ready for all the games. Constantly has team attire on.

14. Wait, They Still Go Here?

Enough said. You didn’t even realize they went here because they are never seen around campus.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
