Living with my best friends this summer has already been pretty fun. We all go to different colleges, so it's definitely awesome hearing each girls' unique experience at school.

I go to a small private school where fraternity parties override sporting events. Two of my friends go to big, state schools where being in a sorority is a full-time job and football games are never missed. The last of us? Well she plays D1 soccer at a school full of athletes where everyone else is referred to as "NARP's" (a.k.a. non-athletic regular people).

After initially feeling personally victimized by this term (kidding), I came to the conclusion that once I graduated high school, I too, became a NARP. No matter if you workout on a daily basis or are in great shape, if you aren't playing a varsity sport at your college chances are you're a NARP, too!

Although it is a harsh stereotype, I admit I think it's kind of funny - and I must say, I have embraced the lifestyle choices carried on by "non-athletic regular people."

For example, your average NARP in college has probably joined a sorority or fraternity, as well as a club sports team. Our study hours are spent in the library or a coffee shop, not a fancy athletic center for study hall. That said, our Thursday nights usually begin with a party and not on a long bus ride home, coming back from an away game. Most of us aren't on a scholarship and the majority of us wouldn't be able to handle the intense training and demanding schedule these athletes endure - but hey, at least we don't have to wear baggy sweatsuits!

It's definitely bittersweet being a so-called NARP in college - especially if you dedicated your life to a sport during high school. I will always miss being an athlete, but at the end of the day, I definitely think whether a person plays their sport at the collegiate level or not, they are anything but regular.
