The Six People You Meet In College

In college you will meet a variety of people who are all just trying to get by. As college students we have a couple things in common: we're poor, tired, and just trying to be productive with our lives. However, there are always those very specific types of people we will all run into, or become, on our college campus.

1.The Rowdy Frat Guy Who Just Wants To Get Laid

I want to disclose that not all fraternity brothers are as douchey and disgusting as you see on TV. However, I can tell you from experience that there are those few fraternity brothers that make it their mission to get laid often and laid well. There's nothing wrong with these fellas wanting to get their freak on with every girl on campus. It's all in good fun, but we can only hope that they're at least wrapping their gifts... if you know what I mean.

2. The Strong Liberal Who Always Starts A Political Argument At Dinner

We all know this person, or in my case you are this person unfortunately. With the political tension that we've seen with this last election, it's not surprising that arguments over political views have been on the rise. Some liberals will stop at nothing to get their point across, even if it means yelling at the dinner table. But it's college; this is where liberals are born and bred (so get used to it)! And beware because not all liberals wear rainbow t-shirts and glasses.

3. The Republican Who Can Be Found Arguing With Said Liberal

Finding a republican on a college campus can be rare, but do not underestimate the power of these diamonds in the rough. They are more head strong than your most dedicated liberal, and they can always be found arguing with the aforementioned group from above. The college republicans are hard to find because in my experience they take the form of some forward thinking women. But nonetheless, I have managed to have civil conversations with my republican friends, and we still talk after.

4.The Stay-Up-Late-And-Study-ers

As surprising as it may be, there are a few college students who still go to school to learn. If you run into a Stay-Up-Late-and-Study-er, just back away slowly and leave them alone. Trust me; they have been studying that same chemistry unit for four hours straight and have consumed WAY too much caffeine. They can typically be found in the library, near the barista, and all buildings that stay open 24 hours.

5. The Girls That Just Want To Have Fun

These lovely girls are drawn to the fraternity houses like moths to flames. They're loud, and they like to drink like monsters. However, most of them are passed out after two drinks. Every song that comes on is their jam, and they will grind and twerk on anyone or anything with a pulse. Their goal is to have a good time but not remember any of it in the morning.

6. The “I Just Want To Sleep”-ers

These beautiful creatures are always sleeping. You won't find them out at parties on the weekend because they'll be busy taking a nap. They might oversleep for a class every now and again, or skip lunch so that they can catch a few z's before their next class. Either way if you ever run into one of these folks, you'll be amazed at their ability to still be tired even after sleeping for eight full hours and taking several naps.

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.
