As an introvert myself, I know some indicators that may help clue you in on your personality!

These signs may not apply to everyone, but they may serve as a basis to build on if you’re on the fence about which way you tend to lean in regards to extroversion vs. introversion.

1. You appreciate your "Me Time"

Relaxing by yourself is a must. You need some time to de-stress and recharge without having to deal with other people.

2. You're a home-stayer at heart

Parties sound fun, but a lazy day inside sounds even better!

3. You like to Netflix and chill — literally

Every once in a while, sitting on the sofa and clicking your way through a season’s worth of episodes sounds like the best way to spend an evening.

4. You have mixed feelings about extroverts

Being friends with an extrovert can be great because they’ll take most of the social interaction responsibilities off your shoulders, but sometimes they can be a bit too much and leave you feeling exhausted.

5. You aren't a big fan of crowds


Spending too long in a crowded area can be overstimulating and draining! Sometimes you need to get yourself to a quiet space and rest up for a bit before going back in.

6. You enjoy doing things alone

You find yourself content when doing solitary activities such as reading or writing.

7. You're creative

Because you don’t mind spending time alone, you’re more inclined towards creative outlets such as drawing or making music.

8. You get quiet or tired after too much activity

This is perfectly fine! As an introvert, you’re just trying to conserve energy after being overloaded with sensory info.

9. You're introspective and self-aware

You like taking the time to think things through and may be prone to running an inner monologue inside your head. Internal thoughts, feelings and moods are carefully accounted for and you are great at deciphering your current emotional state.

10. You have a small but tight-knit group of friends

You'd much rather have a small, close group of friends near and dear to your heart than be friendly with a huge group of people without truly knowing them beyond superficial conversations. Long-lasting relationships are much preferred and they tend to be significant.

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter

It's not all morning coffees and singing along to the radio.

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter
morethanwheels

I've been in college for four years now. I spent half my time as a commuter and half as a resident so I've experienced both sides of the housing spectrum. One thing I've learned comparing the two is that my struggles as a commuter far outweigh anything I went through while living on campus. Commuters have to deal with the problems school brings along with a slew of other issues; I've filled up my gas tank in the worst kind of weather conditions and napped in random places in public more times than I'm proud to say of. This is a list of some of the most challenging aspects of being a commuter.
