8 Simple Things That Separate Women from Girls

1. Having anything for any possible situation handy.

Women are prepared for any potential mishap. While looking through their purse you will find Tide to Go, a granola bar, Chapstick, a comb, a nail file, bandaids, ibuprofen, gum or mints, a wallet with every credit card, a planner, pens, safety pins, and more. A girl carries around a mostly empty bag just to simply look like a woman.

2. Knowing what shade of lipstick to wear and the appropriate times to wear it. 

Women know that the best way to find the right shade of lipstick has nothing to do with what outfit they are wearing, but rather deals with their natural coloring. An everyday lipstick should be a couple shades darker than the bare lip color. Red lipstick typically goes in accordance with skin tone. Girls just pick out the brightest red they can find, and wear it in all the wrong ways.

3. Needing coffee in the morning, not just wanting it. 

Women honestly cannot function without coffee in the morning. Girls just want to take basic selfies with their Starbucks.

4. Drinking to be classy.

Women drink because they like the taste of whatever drink is in their hand. Girls drink to get drunk. 

5. Killing the bugs in their house as if it's their job.

Women kill spiders and flies all by themselves, and handle it with maturity and grace. Girls scream and squeal and call the closest boy to take care of it.

6. Having the fridge and cupboards all stocked.

Women have their kitchens all stocked with any spice, sauce, seasoning, veggie, fruit, or mixture that could be required for cooking. They are always prepared to make a hearty meal, whereas girls often times aren't too sure how to properly shop at a grocery store.

7. Memorizing their social security number.

Women are always knowledgable of their SSN. Life happens and ER trips are sometimes inevitable- a woman knows her social and all of her insurance information. A girl has to call her mom and ask for all of that.

8. Knowing how to dress the right way for an event.

Women know the right things to wear to flatter their bodies. They also know that you either show off the legs or the chest, but never both. Girls wear napkins as clothes.

6 Signs You Are An English Major

There are various stereotypes about college students, most of which revolve around the concept of your major. Unfortunately, we often let stereotypes precede our own judgments, and we take what information is immediately available to us rather than forming our own opinions after considerable reflection. If I got a dollar for every time my friends have made a joke about my major I could pay my tuition. One stereotype on campus is the sensitive, overly critical and rigid English major. Here are six telltale signs you are one of them.

When you were little, your parents probably told you television makes your brain rot so you wouldn't watch it for twelve straight hours. However, I feel we can learn some pretty valuable stuff from television shows. "The Office," while a comedy, has some pretty teachable moments thrown in there. You may not know how to react in a situation where a co-worker does something crazy (like put your office supplies in jello) but thanks to "The Office," now you'll have an idea how to behave ifsomething like that should happen.

Here are just a few of the things that religious Office watchers can expect to learn.
