It really is a lifestyle.

10 Signs You Belong At The Beach
Danielle Pierce

1. Summer is your favorite season.

This is mainly because it’s the only season where it’s socially acceptable to spend every waking hour at the beach.

2. There is sand in almost every article of clothing you own.

It’s no longer a surprise to you that there are mini sandcastles in your shoes and sweatshirt pockets.

3. You're most comfortable in a swim suit.

Bikinis? Boardshorts? As long as you don’t have actual clothes on, you’re pretty content with life.

4. You own a beach cruiser that you ride to the beach.

What is a mountain bike, anyway? They can’t pedal through sand, which is a no-go for biking to the beach. Plus, you need the beach cruiser to give your friends rides on your handlebars.

5. You treasure your beach chair.

Your beach chair has backpack straps and a cooler pouch. There’s really nothing else you need in life.

6. Your spot is your spot.

Yes, you have a spot. If your friends and family are looking for you, they know exactly which beach block you are on and if you sit to the left or right of the lifeguard chair.

7. You can easily point out those visiting for the day.

Maybe it’s the fact they have on an elaborate “beach” outfit, or have brought a camping chair with them. Either way, you can spot them from a mile away.

8. You take naps on the beach.

You are guilty of waking up in the morning, going to the beach, and falling back asleep in the sun.

9. Salt water makes you happy.

There’s really nothing else like a dip in the ocean on a beautiful beach day.

10. You appreciate the value of a good beach day.

If you spent the day relaxing seaside, you know your day was pretty much perfect!

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
