6 People You Meet At Auburn

Or any college really.

6 People You Meet At Auburn
Anna Lemus

College is all about meeting tons of new people and making new friends. If you go to a large college (AKA a college with more than 25,000 students like Auburn), you will definitely encounter tons of new people, and you will meet the following six people.

1. The obvious freshman

There's a difference between a regular freshman and the obvious freshman. You've seen them on campus. They dressed up on the first day of class. They're always walking around with a map of campus on their phone, and if their class starts in less than five minutes, you better believe they'll be sprinting to class.

2. The girl who is in love with her sorority.

DISCLAIMER: Before I say anything else, let me say there is absolutely nothing wrong with this. I'm just writing what I've seen on campus. Sorority girls are actually some of the nicest girls I've met, and a lot of my good friends are in sororities.

You've seen her; don't deny it. The girl that walks around with her letters on a hat and big t-shirt and her *insert sorority name here* loves the Tigers button on her backpack. Again, nothing wrong with it. I've just seen so many of these girls in my classes I had to give them a shout out.

3. The person you're pretty sure lives in the library.

OK, so they're actually was someone that lived in RBD a couple years ago, but this isn't what I'm talking about. It's the person you see there every time you go to the library, and it really makes you wonder if they ever go back to their dorm/apartment.

4. The person who never shows up to class unless there is a test.

In all of my classes, there is a large group of these people. When you have the first test, the class seems to grow, and you see people you've never seen before. Some of them even have the boldness to take your unassigned assigned seat, and you're just like:

5. The person you've sat next to all semester, but you still don't know their name.

It doesn't matter that you sit next to them every MWF or TR or that you always complain about that class with them. It was acceptable to ask their name the first couple weeks of class, but now the semester is halfway over, and it would be awkward to ask. If you do end up asking their name, though, you might have a life long friend.

6. Your best friend

This is probably the most important one. This is the person that will be with you through it all, whether it's studying in the library at 2 A.M. or eating pizza in your PJ's at 2 P.M. If you don't meet any of these other people at college, I highly encourage you to find a best friend.

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.
