The Ten Types of Frat Guys

1. The Clown

You surmise he's probably gotten a bid from every house on the row because he just makes people laugh. Everyone wants to hang out with him. He's the one who comes up with the wittiest of GroupMe party invites. Any social situation is a platform for him to spit jokes and do perfectly inappropriate things. To say the least, he is a good time.

2. The Blackout

He is the worst of the worst of frat guys. He blacks out at every party before the party has even hit its peak. You will find him stumbling from person to person, trying to make conversation and failing miserably. He will flail on the dance floor or pass out in the corner. He will upset people with his belligerency. He will apologize in the morning with a sad text like, "sorry for party rocking". He will do it again tomorrow. The saddest part about him is that he may just be tolerable when he's sober. It's just too bad that he never is.

3. The Tool

You've given him multiple chances to redeem himself, but with every conversation you have, he just doesn't seem to suck any less. He is the man who judges a girl solely based off her sorority. He will find an excuse to take his shirt off in any given situation. He is the guy who will jack the aux cord mid-chorus and play the song that no one wants to listen to. He will pour Prestige in Grey Goose bottles. His twelve second handle pulls are simple facades of him pressing his lips against the rim and hoping no one notices his faux gulping technique. He calls his room the 'VIP Lounge' and still wonders why no one ever wants to go inside.

4. The Dreamboy

He is every girl's campus crush. He is the reason why girls go to his house's parties. He is so attractive that his Snapchat selfies could be published in Teen Vogue. Girls will YikYak about how they want to marry him. Boys will momentarily reconsider their sexuality after catching a glimpse of his Tatum-like jawline.

5. The Outlier

This guy just does not fit a single stereotype of his house. If he never wore his letters, you'd probably never know what fraternity he was in. He is an enigma. While some people find his nonconformity endearing, others will criticize him for being the black sheep of the herd. All of that chatter, however, will be masked under everyone asking, "who exactly are you? How exactly did you end up here?"

6. The Power Move

When you met this guy, his smile was so bright that it blinded you. He gets awesome grades. He pulls mad chicks. All the while, he still makes time to rage his face off. You will most likely find him at the gym or helping a child learn to read. His shirts never wrinkle. His eyes have that twinkle. He is the most interesting man in the world.

7. The Brother's Keeper

He keeps his brothers accountable. During parties, he runs around the house making sure nothing is broken or that pictures on Instagram are not posted with house letters. He condemns those who don't take fraternity life seriously because he takes fraternity life very seriously.

8. The Frat Star

If a fraternity could be a person, it would be this guy. He holds basically all the stereotypical traits of the house he is in. He wears his letters like a uniform. He makes you wonder what kind of guy he was before he joined a fraternity because you just don't associate him apart from his house. Picturing him as a geed is harder than trying to open a Heinz bottle after rubbing lotion on your hands. Impossible.

9. The Red Flag

Everyone knows about this guy, but for all the wrong reasons. He is notorious. He always seems a little too eager to hand you a drink. No matter how casually you maneuver yourself away from him, he still seems to linger by you. He smells like a grandpa--old bourbon and stale cigarettes. His own brothers are sketched out by him. He's considered gross even for fraternity standards.

10. The Guy On The Composite

No one in the house even knows who he is. One or two people will have claimed to have conversed with him, but no one's actually ever seen him around. If it wasn't for the composite, no one would even know that he exists because he is just that uninvolved.

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.

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
