Sinners and Saints Bar

Whether it's Ladies' Night, or you're going out bar hopping with the boo thing, you're getting yourself mentally ready for anything and everything. As you're picking out which high heels to wear, and letting your hair dry, prepare yourself for these types of people that you will run into at a bar.

1. The Regular

When you go to that one bar that you and your friends all enjoy, you notice the same man there every time. He's not a bother to anyone, and most of the time he's just hovering over a beer looking at the drunk people. You'll never know how intoxicated he may be because he keeps to himself.

2. The Party Girl

She may be shoving drinks down your throat or someone else's. Either way, if she sees you without an alcoholic beverage, chances are she's going to take seven shots for you and then feed you seven of your own shots. She's the reason they call it a pub crawl.

3. The Hunter

This person came out for the hunt. He may have come out alone, but he's not going home alone. When he comes up behind you and starts dancing with you, you better have one good friend that's prepared to pull you away.

4. The Brooder

Something went terribly, terribly wrong over the course of this person's life. He may be on the verge of being a regular and he's definitely the person that you just want to hug when you sit down next to him. Or perhaps you're too afraid to sit next to him because no one else is. He has a tendency to give chilling vibes that make the seats around him unavailable.

5. The Drunk Mom

Tell the bartender to keep the wine coming because this mom knows how to go hard. She's past the Franzia boxed wine phase, and her kids have driven her mad. It wouldn't be a terrible thing to be her in your older days. She seems rather fun as she cackles and hoots. She becomes annoying when she starts worrying constantly about if she left the stove on.

6. The Bottomless Pit


For the duration of the night, you've watched this person throw back a variety of drinks. You envy the strength of their liver, but you do not envy their wallet. Wait a few more drinks before you start putting your drinks on his tab.

7. The Dancer

The dancer is perfect for a Ladies' Night because every song is their jam, so you'll be dancing the night away for sure. She doesn't care who's watching, she's going to sing her heart out and spin circles around everyone. She even keeps going after she falls flat on her face.

8. Then there's me

I'm not purposefully awkward by any means, it's a gift. Most of the time I'm watching everyone stumble around, and other times I'm simply praying no one touches me. There are those rare occasions when I hope someone will talk to me, but not usually. I just want to observe everyone so I can find things to write about the next 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.
