10 Signs You Go To UConn
The Hartford Courant

There are roughly 20,000 undergraduate students at the University of Connecticut (UConn). Since there are so many students that go here, I like to think of UConn as our own little city. It's hard to realize some of the time that there's a whole other world outside of UConn because we are so trapped in our little bubble. But, there is no place else I would rather spend my college days. UConn is home. Here are some signs that you call UConn home too:

1. You ask every restaurant remotely close to UConn if they take Husky Bucks.

2. You order food from DP Dough, Insomnia, Wings, or Sgt. Pep's at least once a week.


3. You're always on the bus tracker even though you know it's probably off schedule.

4. Even if you weren't a basketball fan, you are now.

5. Every time you eat ice cream not from UConn you say, "Oh but it's nothing like Dairy Bar ice cream."

6. Your top goal before you graduate is to get a picture with Jonathan.

7. You own about 1,453,954 UConn t-shirts.

8. You've made the drunk walk down Hunting Lodge Road at least once.

9. You've waited in line for Dunkin at the Union even though you know there's 100 people in front of you.

10. When someone yells "UCONN!" everyone automatically responds "HUSKIES!"

Your Friend Group, As Told By Disney Princesses

Each Disney Princess has their own personality, and chances are you've got a friend in your group to match it.

The dynamics of any friend group are usually determined by the personalities which make it up. Chances are, while personalities may overlap, each person in your friend group holds his or her own place. It is the differences which bring the groups together and keep them functioning. No matter how functionally dysfunctional your friend group may be, if you're anything like me, you feel absolutely blessed to have found such a wonderful group of humans to call "your people." Here is what your friend group might look like if they were Disney princesses (and that wasn't just a thing you all pretended in your heads):
