When You're The Weird Friend

Stay strange, my friends

When You're The Weird Friend
Daily Beast

If you're the one of the group that is constantly making weird faces, you're probably the weird friend.

If you frequently talk in different accents, quote random movies, skip while your other friends walk, burst into song and don't care who hears, you're probably the weird friend.

If you mind has a thousand thoughts per second, non of which have any correlation to each other, but somehow to you, they make all the sense in the world, you're probably the weird friend.

If you laugh a little too hard, talk a little too loud, and sing a little too much, more than likely, you're the weird friend.

If your life depended on it, you can't keep a straight face for more than thirty seconds.

Your friends probably have more than enough blackmail photos of you doing something embarrassing (or wearing something embarrassing...or both).

Your friends just roll their eyes (in a loving way of course) at and chalk up all your oddities to: "Only you would do/say that."

But weird friends are the best friends.

Weird friends aren't afraid to look a little silly or go out on a limb. Weird friends won't judge you about embarrassing moments because been there, done that.

Weird friends may not always have the most 'appropriate' things to say, but they're always down to make you laugh if you're feeling blue.

Weird friends may not have the best concept of boundaries, but they'll be more than willing to share their food, clothes, or even toothpaste if you ever need it.

Sure, we can be a little embarrassing in public places (my future kids will probably act more mature than I will, but it's fine).

Do we often get a little too TMI? Maybe.

Without a doubt, we get into some of the most awkward situations you'll ever hear about (once I thanked someone that I was holding the door open for--that is my life in a nutshell).

But if you're ever in need of an emergency dance party, you know who to call.

So if you've been dubbed 'the weird friend', embrace it.

If, more often than not, you get confused looks or blank stares to whatever you say, just go with it.

You're the weird friend, the awkward friend, the friend who often spills things.

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.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
