As a impressionable freshman this past fall, these were the first girls I met to kick off my college career.
1. The Party Animal
This girl is everyone's favorite! Make sure you talk to her if you're looking for a fun night on the town. She's drunk 24/7, even when giving a room tour for prospective students. This girl has such a good time that when she attends class she opens her backpack to the staunch smell of alcohol with a fifth of vodka still sitting next to her notebook. It's wise to make friends with this individual so that you will always have a place to go Friday and Saturday.
Somehow she escaped her first year without an underage.
2. The Shy and Studious
Every time you see her, she's in the library with books piled high. She is the one determined to complete college in three years. When she speaks, it is with grace, a kind-hearted soul who loves knowledge.
3. Miss Congeniality
A fun loving soul that you will meet in class. She is the one to ask some of the craziest/challenging questions. She is a beautiful soul and cares about everyone. She embraces the college lifestyle and will order Chinese food way too often. She is the Jane of all trades, and is willing to try new things. She just lives to please her family and to be successful. When lining up to receive gear for a camping expedition, she will say,"This is not quite fabulous, do we have to wear this?"
4. Drop Dead Gorgeous
Every time you see her, you can just hear the song "Drop Dead Legs" by Van Halen play endlessly in your mind. She is your beauty queen and has no need for makeup. She is overall stunning. You will have an odd desire to be her friend and look like her.
5. Makeup Queen
This girl knows everything about make-up, she will have you looking drop dead beautiful after only doing foundation. She herself does not need make-up but embraces it to bring out her own aspired beauty. She will post snap chat tutorials to save lives. #SlayingQueen.
6. Anti-Drinker, Anti-Smoker, Anti-Illegal Fun
Most likely your resident assistant if you're living in the dorms. This girl is often labeled as the "fun snatcher." Instead of putting on a crop top to go out on Friday's she heads to bed early or waits until the drunk crowd comes in so she can report folks. She will personally knock on your door and tell you to turn your music down. Be aware of this girl! Claims to be fun in other ways...
7. The Raging Lesbian
Seems to be the very fun, cute, and fun loving girl on your campus. Whether she switches between ties and skirts, she is the girl that every girl goes to guy advice. While her mind is focused on school she also walking around school trying to figure out which girls are "curious," bisexual and gay. Very emotionally attached in fear of losing others. This girl is most likely battling coming out to her family or plotting some scheme to tell her parents. Watch out, she tends to fall for her best friend! Handle with care.
8. The foreigner having too much fun with American lifestyle.
This is the girl that disregards school the first two months for partying, hanging out late and doing everything at once. She has no moderation because she has not been exposed to this lifestyle. She just wants to escape her societal and familial pressures, make sure you bring her close to keep her tamed — Because this is the friend that will wonder why their GPA is so low after the end of the semester.
9. Too Smart For Class
Somehow this girl does not have to go to class to receive an A+. She's probably heading out on Tequila Tuesday and sleeps all day on Whiskey Wednesday. By the end of the month, she has all of Bi Sci 001 down to a science and aces the exam. Nobody wants to admit this, but she is everyone's role model.
10. The Struggle Bus
This poor girl cannot seem to get a grasp on reality...She goes to class faithfully, studies when needed, but fails everything that comes her way. You will find her throwing up over a toilet bowl after a wild Friday night, crying over a boy.
11. The Princess
This is the girl decked out in bright colors and has been dying to be in a sorority since she was in high school. She gets bids from most of the sororities on campus, and after deciding which one to pledge, that's all she ever talks about. If you're ever in the hallway with her she will ask you: "Does this look good?" "Does this match?" or, "How do I look?" Everything she has is monogrammed with her initials or sorority letters. People will sadly describe her as conceited, but she has a sweet personality, and she's nice to have around if you're looking for an opinion for your outfit.
12. The Mom
This is the girl who pulls up the first day in a minivan and calls it the "swaggin' wagon." She is so kind, sweet and subtle she will put others before herself. Most of the time she will advocate for DD (designated driver) so that all her friends can go hard with no regrets...Not even a letter. She gives the best hugs and she would give you the last dollar in her wallet if you really needed it. She will probably be your best friend because you can always depend on her. Make sure you find yourself a college mom!
13. The Athlete
She played varsity basketball and has a killer bod. When you invite her to play basketball with your friends, she takes it seriously and can hit those three pointers. She will be the Steph Curry for your team — make sure she is your first pick.
14. She's a Gal, but every Guy's pal
She knows how to hang with the fellas, she can shotgun a beer faster than John and can disregard all her manners for vulgarity. She can beat anyone in Madden no matter the level of difficulty. Her versatility makes her the ideal friend to the male counterpart.
15. The Human Fit Bit
Eat. Sleep. Gym. Repeat. She is everyone's #GymGoals, she's faithful to the gym and would marry it if she could. She is a forced to be reckoned with. If you need someone to help you get into shape, this is the girl you go to. Seriously, she is not the typical girl to go to the gym in search of boys. She may not calorie count, but she eats very carefully.
