If you're anything like me, you like to talk...to everybody...all the time. My hand is up in a permanent wave ready position. Not really, I would look crazy, but sometimes walking to class I feel like it is. Going to school on small campus definitely makes it easier to know everybody, but if you're anything like me you don't just know everybody in your major, or in your building, you know at least some person in each of the groups on campus. I am definitely always hanging, talking to someone I know. People do get annoyed with it, and let me tell you it is a struggle. I definitely get the different comments from people all a different version of the same question. I'm sure that all the social butterflies out there feel my pain. Here are five things the socializing masses will be able to relate to.

We hear the phrase, "You know everybody," at least once a day.

In fact we don't know everybody. We might know a lot of people, but believe me there are many more people that we can meet. Just Watch.

You have to plan time for talking to people in your daily commute to class.

Now, since I go to WSC it is maybe a five minute walk to class. Well, it is supposed to be. If I'm running late, you can bet I'm gonna run even later because it's on those days that you do see everybody you know. And they are very interested in your life

You've made friends all over the place.

This isn't a bad thing necessarily, but it can suck. I have been to multiple conferences and have met some the best people. We may have only met that one time for a couple days, but I feel like I got to know them on a friend level. Honestly, I don't know what I would do without Facebook if I couldn't keep up with their many adventures.

You forget that you are in multiple friend groups.

This one is a huge struggle for me. "Did you hear that so and so did this?" "Who?" "Oh yeah you don't know them..." I have this conversation with one of my friend groups all the time. I just get started talking and then I see the look of confusion and realize that I've confused the groups once again. I've decided to just have a giant meet and greet so that this isn't a problem anymor

"Do you even consider them friends?"

I have actually been asked this question. I stood my ground, got all defensive, and said yeah. I would consider them all friends. My requirements to consider you a friend are; we both know the other's name, we verbally say hi and acknowledge the other, or I know even one fact about (major, hometown, etc.). You meet one of those things, add me up on Facebook, follow me on Instagram, heck even get my phone number! I'll talk to you whenever. It doesn't matter how much or how little you know about someone there are so many different levels to being a friend. Whether you're on the bottom or the top. I'm still gonna be there for you.

It seems like it can be overwhelming, or maybe I make it sound bad to be considered a social butterfly, but believe it is not. Connections are what get you places in life, you never know where that kid sitting next to in gen ed psych is gonna end up. Make friends and the possibilities are endless. Whether you are just as social as me, or prefer to keep it to a bare minimum, you can't deny the fact that you know a lot more people than you think you do. Walk into the cafeteria at noon, take your time walking to class, or even just spend some time at the rec. You'll soon realize that you, too, are blossoming into a beautiful social butterfly, and let me tell you from my experience being fully blossomed and having spread my wings, it is nice to know people.
