Are You Like Jess From 'New Girl'?

Whether you watch the show or not, you might find that you're more like Jess than you think. If you are awkward, funny, outgoing, have a solid group of friends, and are just straight up cool then you're most likely the "Jess" in your friend group.

1. You spot a cute guy.

When you are casually drinking your morning coffee and catching up on some reading, bam! You can't help but start to drool and awkwardly stare at the 6'4 tall blonde that just walked in.


2. You sing to yourself.

Whether you're singing in the shower, or singing in a public restroom, you know that eventually you will never be alone. Someone is bound to join in.


3. You call yourself weird.

Your guy friend stares at you and your best friend from across the room while you all are making weird noises at each other…sorry that's our form of communication.



4. You can be heartless at times.

Every girl can admit that they can be heartless. "This world revolves around me, not you."


5. You can sometimes be a little judgmental.

You see that girl that is hanging all over her boyfriend of a week. I'm staring at you because I'm slightly confused and slightly jealous.


6. It's possible you don't always make the right decisions.

Always asking your closest friends to make a decision for you because you're obviously too indecisive. "Do I stay up late, eat this bowl of ice cream, skip class in the morning, or do all three?"


7. You wonder why people think like they do...

Your friend comes to you and tells you she is having relationship issues. She proceeded to tell you that her boyfriend hasn't texted back in a whole five minutes.


8. You are the life of the party.

You walk into a room and want people to recognize you have arrived. "The party obviously doesn't start until I walk in."


9. You end up in the wrong place during serious events.

You just heard how Becky actually was with her ex-boyfriend last night, but then her current boyfriend is your best friend. If there was a table I probably would crawl under it and never come out.


10. You try to avoid confrontation however you can.

Your friends get together for a nice and quiet movie night, but all of a sudden your friend starts nitpicking at you for something you did last week. The only thing keeping you from speaking are all those cookies you're shoveling into your mouth.


11. You don't always feel 100 percent about your appearance.

While putting on your spring break swimsuit, you ask your friends how you look. The looks on their faces reveal to you that it is not the right one. "I actually lost a whole pound last week so you can stop staring."


12. No matter what, you always have your friends.

Through thick and thin, you always have your group of friends that you can be weird and awkward with, and they still love you unconditionally.

The new girl doesn't always have to be the one who doesn't fit in. No, the new girl can be the girl who fits in because people like her distinctive personality. The "Jess" in any friend group is the one you will remember having the best of adventures and memories with. So…if you related to all these, then congratulations! People should feel honored to have you as a friend.

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.
