If These 7 Traits Sound Familiar, You May Be A Fellow Socially Awkward Butterfly

Hi my fellow socially awkward butterflies of the internet, it's time for some real talk: we're awkward. And I just want to put a disclaimer out before we go any further on this journey that being awkward isn't a bad thing, in fact, I happen to think it's a fun quality to have. It just means we're free spirits with a little extra character not everyone has. So if this sounds like you, here are 7 things we do that are #relatable. Welcome to the club.

1. Taking pictures. Not as simple as it sounds.

What do we do with our hands?!

2. Walking in public.

Giphy

We lose all control over our bodies, especially when we're walking alone. Why is it so hard for us?

3. Don't even get me started with eating alone.

Giphy

My nerves are shot just thinking about this. I'd rather just eat in the privacy of my own home, thank you very much.

4. When someone catches you off guard and asks your name.

Giphy

Your response is never actually your name, it either comes out all wrong or sometimes even the wrong name. True story. I don't want to talk about it.

5. All of your friends have labeled you as the "awkward butterfly" of the group.

Giphy

I say wear it with pride.

6. Getting stopped at red lights and someone pulls up next to you.

Giphy

Do you look over at them? Do you stare right at the light and pray it'll turn green? Why is this so stressful!

7. Seeing people you know in public.

Giphy

Most people live in fear they'll see someone they know at Costco on the day they're not wearing makeup or even worse, on laundry day. For people like us, our literal living nightmare is seeing someone just because we haven't had the time to mentally prepare ourselves.

beer on the beach

Summer is hot and humid, and it's almost like summer was made specifically to drink the refreshing, cold, crisp wonderful, delicious, nutritious nectar of the gods. Which is none other than beer; wonderful cold beer. With summer playing peek-a-boo around the corner while we finish up this semester, it's time to discuss the only important part of summer.

Anyone who was born and raised in New Jersey (or anywhere really) knows of Bruce Springsteen, whether or not they like him is a whole other situation. I hope that his hundreds of classic rock songs and famous high energy performances, even in his sixties he can put on better concerts than people half his age, are at least recognizable to people of all ages. Love him or hate him (I identify with the former) you have to admit that some of his songs and interviews have inspirational quotes and lyrics.
