As my first month comes to a close, I thought I'd share some wisdom.

The 5 Kinds Of People You Meet In College
EagleNews

As my first month of college comes to an end, I found it only fitting to write an article involving the kinds of people I have met throughout this past month, or more so the most common types of people that have crossed my path.

1. The Goes Home Every Weekend-er

This person is someone who you literally only see during the week. Their hometown is usually within a 3-4 hour radius and is where you will find them almost every weekend. You rarely see them out in the clubs, school social events, store, etc. You swore they were a commuter until they invited you to their dorm.

2. The Fake ID Flaunter

This person doesn’t actually flaunt their fake ID’s, but they do brag about how much they go out and party, and how they were able to get drinks from the bartenders. They try to make themselves sound super cool only for it to make them sound super dumb and annoying instead.

3. The All Around

This person is just good all around. They get to classes on time, they actually go to their classes, do homework, study, yet still go out on the weekends. They’re also usually extremely mellow in personality. These are the kind of people you want to be friends with.

4. The Frat/Jock

This one’s name speaks for itself. They are usually wearing a suit of some sort and travel in packs with other suited frat members. Some of them used to be jocks, but either weren’t on a school team or didn’t make the college team.

5. The Super Cool Desk Assistant or RA

These guys can be life savers. Whether it be making you laugh, telling you the fastest way to get to a class, or giving you dating advice, they always have your back. They're the ones who blast Drake music while on shift.

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.
