The Types Of People You Will Meet In College, As Told By Characters From 'The Office'
Huffington Post

It's no secret that we meet all types of people in college. Sometimes, it can be overwhelming. Thus, I've taken the liberty to make everyone's experience in college a bit more relatable. And what's more relatable than characters from everyone's favorite television show?


1. Ryan Howard

The kid that never stops talking about the fact that he's in a frat.


2. Dwight K. Schrute

The kid that raises his hand way too much in a 500-person lecture.


3. Michael Scott

The hopeful RA who sends 1,000 emails a day, prompting floor bonding events. He also bribes you with food, of course.


4. Jim Halpert

The guy that comes to college with a girlfriend that you pray will become single over Thanksgiving break.


5. Kevin Malone

The kid that makes you wonder if his parents cut a special deal with admissions.

 


6. Creed Bratton

The guy you just know makes his money off selling drugs to freshmen.


7. Stanley Hudson

The second semester senior who pushed off his writing requirement, and is now in an intro class with all freshmen.


8. Pam Beesly

The girl who switches her major four times.


9. Robert California

The rich kid who everyone thinks is low-key creepy, but he always has Ciroc, so you keep him around.


10. Oscar Martinez

The kid in the honors college that you feel really bad for because he clearly wanted to go to an Ivy.

 


11. Meredith Palmer

The girl who goes out every night of the week and pregames the pregame.


12. Keely Kapoor

The girl who knows the address to every frat on campus.


13. Gabe Lewis

The guy who tries to convince everyone he was cool in high school.


14. Angela Martin

The girl who calls the RA on you when you make noise after 6 p.m.

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.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

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.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

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.
