What The Way You Adjust Your Glasses Says About You

Everyone who wears glasses has a different way of fixing them when they inevitably slide down the bridge of your nose and threaten to jump off your face.

Everyone who wears glasses has a different way of fixing them when they inevitably slide down the bridge of your nose and threaten to jump off your face. So, what does the way you fix your glasses say about you?

The Full Frontal Push Up

The person who takes on the Full Frontal approach to adjust their glasses is wildly funny and the person you turn to when you need to liven up your weekend. With this face-palm approach, the Full Frontal Push-Uppers give 0 cares to what anyone thinks of them. They have to get the job done and go about it in the most practical (and possibly) least flattering way. It's the quickest way to fix the glasses and get back to having fun. These peeps are most compatible with the double end piecers because their outrageous antics sometimes require some cleanup or careful orchestration

The Side Swipe


The person who pushes their glasses up from the side is one who always has their eyes on the prize. They don't want to miss a thing, so they can't do the Full Frontal approach for fear of blocking their view. They just want to take it all in and stop and smell the roses. They're mellow life-lovers who live each day with the "just happy to be here" philosophy. These people are compatible with everyone- glasses wearers or not- because they're so easy going and easy to love.

The End-Piece Hoist

Glasses-wearers who grab the end-piece to adjust their specs are super introspective and judgemental- not always in a bad way. These folks can see through bull and get right to the point. They are great judges of character and are hardly ever wrong about the new significant others that their friends are bringing into their lives. These people are most compatible with Grabbers because the Grabber's goofiness is balanced with this more realistic personality.

The Double End-Piece Touch And Go

Since this was a selfie, I couldn't get my second hand in the picture but basically the Touch and Go approach uses the same as the End Piece Hoist but with both hands (*note: this can also be a common modification for the Lens Grabber which is described below*). These Touch and Goers are very practical and careful people. They deal with their glasses the same way that they deal with social interactions and carrying hot soup across a room: with both hands. In social situations, they want to be a part of the action in order to diffuse drama and they always consider every side of a story. They're most compatible with the Full Frontal Pusher because they can balance the crazy with pragmatism.

The Lens Grabber

Finally, we have the Lens Grabber (my personal favorite). Lens Grabbers use the frame of their glasses to push their glasses back up. Just as they risk their fingerprint infringing on their line of sight, the Grabbers take risks in life too. Lens Grabbers are good at thinking on their feet while also thinking before they speak. I'd say that they are a happy middle between the craziness that comes with the Pushers and the mellowness that comes with the Side Swipers. They're super goofy and tend to laugh more at their own jokes than anyone else does. These Grabbers are good pairs with the End Piece Hoisters because, if I'm any indication, Grabbers could really use a reality check sometimes.

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.
