It's gonna get interesting.

The 10 Types Of People You Will Meet In College

College is a place full of diversity, so that means you will run across some very interesting people during your time spent at a University. And when I say interesting, I mean it. Here are the 10 types of people you are going to meet in college:

1. The over-involved person

This person thrives off of being busy or they are just trying to fluff up their resume with extracurriculars. Anytime you see them they are running off to another class, work or a club meeting.

2. The hipster

This person is all about a chill vibe. Anytime you see them they have a coffee in hand and 9 times out of 10 they are wearing a combo of grey, black and white.

3. The hippie

Hippies are so hard not to love. Anytime you see them they'll probably be preaching about climate change or passing out pamphlets on why weed should be legalized everywhere.

4. The good girl gone bad

The first weekend of school she stayed in a read a good book. By weekend three she is downing shots like a pro and hooking up with all the frat boys like its her job. You go Glen coco!

5. The hookup you see everywhere

One night stands are exactly as they sound- only for one night. You thought that would be the case for this one too, but you see them everywhere you go. At the coffee shop, the library, class ... you didn't even know they were in the same class as you. It is sooo awkward.

6. The frat star

You'll probably see him walking around with his brothers in a pair of khakis and boat shoes. They look so put together and you'll wonder when you will ever get your life together like that.

7. The gym rat

They take fitness to another level. If they aren't in class then they are at the gym or eating some protein.

8. The couple attached at the hip

They don't leave each others side- literally, they physically dont leave each others side. It's cute at first but after a few days you are just annoyed you can't talk to one without the other.

9. The person who never goes to class

You aren't exactly sure why they pay $1,300 for a class that they never come to. And when you find out they are still passing you aren't exactly sure why that can't be you.

10.The person who always comes to class hungover after a Tuesday night

At CMU, everyone hits up Pints on Tuesday night but some people go way harder... and they do it every week. Anytime you see them at your 10 a.m. Wednesday class they look like they are a zombie — a very hungover zombie.

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.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
