What The Shoes You Wear On Campus Say About You
Athletika

Let's face it, LSU students are not the most fashionable when it comes to class time. Most of us get dressed in the morning half awake and trying to remember if that math test is today or not. However, our shoes can help us express ourselves. As they say, shoes are the window to the sole. Whether you realize it or not, your shoes are telling your classmates something words, or your favorite bus trip t-shirt, never could. Are you a hipster or a normie? Where do you fall on the spectrum? If you're looking to get an understanding of your class crush or you're dying to know what others say about you, look no further. Here is a very serious, very informative, truthful guide to what your on-campus shoe choice says about you.

1) Adidas

You're borderline-hipster and you miss the 90's. People think you're shady.

2) Flip Flops

You have absolutely no self respect. You want your classmates to see your bare a** toes that probably haven't seen a pedicure since your middle school graduation. Go to the beach or go home.

3) Chacos


The srat version of flip flops.

4) Birkenstocks


You're a free spirit, you're laid-back, and you go wherever the wind takes you. Also you are literally a dirty hippie. Go blow your weed smoke in someone else's face!

5) Vans


You're different. You probably skate to class everyday on your long board while the normies walk. "I'm not like everyone else," you say as you light a cig after class, "and I also don't care that this is a tobacco-free campus."

6) Converse


You're an old soul. These shoes have been cool since the 50's, and you're a timeless kind of trendy. It's not the 50's anymore though so you're probably the "different" one who wore your converse to every high school dance, and plan on wearing the damned things to your wedding and your first child's birth. Next.

7) Asics


You follow the crowd. You don't want to make any waves. And you probably don't even run.

8) Slides


No one trusts you. You the type to slide up in any and everybody's DM's.

9) Sperry's


The more formal wear of frat dudes on campus. You probably have never even worn them on a real boat. But if you have, it was definitely the one your dad owns. These really say, "There's no lawsuit MY dad can't handle!"

10) New Balance

You take pride in who you are. New Balance not only test well with frat boys, but also with those 65 and over. These say, "You're either gonna love me or hate me. Pick one." Think about it: these shoes are worn by that frat star who made fun of you in middle school, your funny friend with ugly style, and your cheerful grandpa.


Hopefully now you know how the world sees you. Whether its opinion is good or bad, haters can back off! Take this knowledge and make waves with it! Unless you're wearing Asics -- then just stay put.

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.
