Here Is What Your 9 Favorite Shoes Styles Say About You

Look down at your feet, what shoes are you wearing?

Shoes are chosen based on the occasion, duh. So what are you up to?

Arguably, you can draw numerous conclusions from one's footwear. Simply, put yourself in their shoes.

1. Tennis shoes

If they are well-worn then you are a gym-junkie. If not, well, then you are a casual partaker.

Somehow, wearing tennis shoes makes you want to jog in place. No need to pay for therapy, exercising in tandem with the pulsing beat dissipates all anxiety.

2. Converse or Vans

Radiating youth and a philosophy to approach life with ease, you are functional but trendy. Who knows, you might be Avril Lavigne incarnate. 'Sk8ter boi' was your anthem and Spencer's was your store of choice, to your parent's chagrin.

You are experiencing with all things alternative, riding the line between hipster and preppy.

3. Sperry's and All Boat-shoes

Either you are in a fraternity or you want to be. Unfortunately, you probably don't wear socks with your shoes so they are rancid.

Also, you mistakenly believe that pastel chubbies are attractive. Hear me clearly, I am thankful that you are confident in your manhood. I hope you meet a really nice guy, someday.

Bottom line: If you don't own a boat or work as a male model, then boat shoes are a no-go.

4. Loafers

A popular shoe worn by fashionable men who believe that comfort need not be sacrificed on the altar of style.

Even women love loafers because they can be dressed up or down. Their versatility reflects modernity and a sophisticated androgyny.

5. Stilettos

Let me spell it out, C-O-N-F-I-D-E-N-T.

Sidewalk cracks and cobblestones beware, these shoes show no fear. Tower above the crowd and feel like a Victoria Secret Angel for one, glorious (albeit painful) night.

6. Conservative Heels

Were you stowed in a purse before arriving at work? I think you were!

Wear these bad boys at the meeting and then slip into flats under your desk. Or better yet, don tennis shoes for the power-walk during your lunch break.

You are a well-rounded adult or at least, you want to seem so.

7. Ballet Flats

Wife her up! She has a gentle, sweet disposition. Imagine Pam from 'The Office.' Oh, and she always has candy at her desk or a snack in her purse.

8. Sandals

From henceforth, sandals would like to be recognized as distinct from flip-flops. Sandals flatter a dress, a skirt and even shorts and t-shirt.

They say that you tried, but not too much. Thank you, sandals, for all that you do!

9. Flip-flops

Where is the beach? Or I am doing laundry? Or I am running errands? Bum around or get stuff done, either way flip-flops can handle it. And if they suddenly can't, throw them out and purchase a $2 pair from literally anywhere.

Shoes help us walk through our days. For many of us, we do not wonder whether or not we will have shoes.

Yet, innumerable others the world over do not have a closet full of shoes. They may only have one or even none.

I challenge you to donate one pair of shoes for every pair of shoes that you have. Imagine who will receive that shoe and all the places they will go.

By donating, you touch their sole.

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.
