College has taught me many things, including the fact that my friend group is most definitely considered the "woo girls". Unsure as to what a "woo girl" is? A "woo girl" is defined by Urban Dictionary as "A women usually between the ages of 18-24 who shows her excitement and fun that she is having with her friends by exalting with a "WOOO" usually in unison with 4-5 other whoo girls"... Remind you of anyone? Same here...
Now I am not ashamed of being a woo girl. I am enjoying life with my other fellow woo girls and we just like to express out excitement in a vocal way... It's basically our mating call and there's nothing wrong with that.
Allow me to explain why we are considered "woo girls":
1) When our song comes on:
We may not need to woo to explain that we love this song more than everyone else in the room, but we do it anyway.
2) Birthdays:
Obviously we are going to be greatly excited when one of our fellow "wooers" turns another year older. This always requires an extra loud "woo" and for us to remind everyone that it is OUR night, not anyone elses.
3) To unite us:
We need everyone in the entire world to understand that we are best friends and we have a great time together (other than just by our Instagram posts of the same group photo). Our "woos" direct a lot of attention to us, but on the bright side it also makes us stand out as a close group.
4) When you see one of your "wooers" getting to know that cute boy at the party:
Of course we are going to be excited about one of our girls sharing a special moment with that cute boy in the corner. High fives and "woos" are exchanged to represent our approval.
5) Passing that exam you studied all week for:
Spending every day studying for a specific exam always calls for a special exalimation once you realize you passed it! Everyone then joins in because now that the exam is over and graded, they can have their fellow "wooer" back.
6) Sharing a mutual disliking for someone:
It's not everyday that we all dislike the same person for whatever reason... but when someone stabs one of us in the back, we all put up our baracades and protect those inside the "wooing" group.
6) And of course as a cover up:
We may not always exclaim why we need to go out, but the "woo" is often used as a cover up to show that we may actually be dying on the inside...
Which also works for men...
What is the male version of a "woo" girl? Stay tuned to find out!!!
