The 7 Types Of People You Always See On Your Way To Class

Every college is different, but some things will always be the same.

All colleges claim to be great at one thing or another, every college has their claim to fame, their battle cry (Roll Tide!), and their stereotypes. But somethings are pretty consistent across every college campus. Whether you go to Bama, Boulder or Auburn I'm betting you can relate to these seven things you'll likely see on every college campus.

1. Someone going to class in their pajamas

They were either up all night studying or partying. Either way, changing into clothes sounded a lot worse than coming to class in their PJ's

2. Someone riding a Razor Scooter

They're too hipster for a bike. Or too broke for a car. Or both.

3. Someone running through the fountain

It gets hot walking around campus in 90-degree weather. Sometimes you just have to run through the Ferg Fountain

4. Someone who's drunk at 1 p.m.

Did they wake up still drunk? Did they day drink? Or maybe the coffee tumbler they're carrying around is spiked? The world may never know. What we do know is that they're tipsy in your 1 o'clock chem lecture.

5. The group of people tabling for their cause

Whether they're part of a religious, political, academic or philanthropic group, they're impossible to miss and you'll do everything in your power to avoid the flyers they're handing out.

6. The people passing out (donuts, coffee, lemonade, balloons, sweet tea) for no reason other than because they wanted to

Thank you unidentified Young Life boy, for the glass of lemonade on the way to bio lab. Just what I needed.

7. The one covered in their letters (her T-shirt, hat, button on her backpack, socks, fanny pack).

Everything she's wearing proudly proclaims the Greek organization to which she belongs. If it's a special week like Derby Days, Homecoming or Greek Week she might even wear her face paint and glitter to class.

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.
