7 Signs You're The 'Oblivious Friend' That You Missed Because, Well, You Know

In reality, we just make life really fun.

7 Signs You're The 'Oblivious Friend' That You Missed Because, Well, You Know
Sammie Fairbanks

We all know we have the one friend that is ALWAYS oblivious.

They’re always making life fun though because deep down inside they just have no idea what’s going on at any given moment. You’re probably always losing them or constantly making sure they’re keeping up with the group.

Either way, they make any outing adventurous and a whole lot of fun. So, here’s to those who are blatantly unaware of what’s going on around them at all given time.

1. You don’t know when that guy/girl has feelings for you.

They might have dropped so many hits and a normal person would understand it but you’re so oblivious that it’s probably going to take them hand delivering a note that says “Do you like me? Check yes or no” for you to grasp that they, in fact, do have feelings for you. So, until they’re that painfully obvious you probably won’t be getting the hint anytime soon. We just don’t work that way and we’re really really sorry but just be straight up with us and you’ll be fine.

2. You got from point A to point B but have ZERO idea how.

Do you ever get to an event or friends house, really anywhere, and realize that you have NO idea how you got there? Thank goodness for your friends that are probably type A that have figured out which flight you need to catch, already called that uber and made sure you reached your final destination safe and sound. If it wasn’t for them, would we all really even be alive? Probably not because life is hard when you get somewhere and don’t really know how you got there

3. You’re blonde.

You’re either blonde at heart or blonde in real life but either way, blondes do it better so I’m sorry if you’re not.

4. You’re probably also the grandma/grandpa of the group.


Catch us in bed close to 9 PM and typically trying to get the group home before the party even starts. It’s a little bit exhausting navigating life when you don’t really know what’s going on.

5. You get lost often.

We can often be found wandering aimlessly because we just saw a shiny object or maybe even a squirrel, that’s all.

6. You’re also directionally challenged.

Refer back to point number 2 but let’s just say that directions and maps and geography is just really really hard sometimes. I swear we’re smart but not when it comes to directions.

7. You’re almost always late.


Time is a foreign concept to you and you’re probably really jealous of the people that have a consistent schedule that arrive either early or on time to EVERYTHING! No matter how hard you try, you still can’t manage to get somewhere on time. You’ve bought the watch and set all the alarms but being late is just in your blood.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

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.
