In college, you meet a lot of different people, and for some reason, people tend to group frat boys into diverse stereotypes. This being said, the main stereotype of Greek fraternity life is that all the men are the same. Being at college for a year now, I have met a wide variety of frat guys, and I can guarantee that every single guy fits into one or more of these categories. In addition, being a sorority girl myself, I love Greek life, but I cannot blame media for bashing them because let's face the fact now: they are obnoxious, usually delinquents, and have terrible reputations, especially when you concentrate on how they normally treat women.

1. The conceited jerk

Ah yes, the most common species of a frat man. At first, the conceited jerk is not hard to spot in a crowd. You may think you want him, but he is everything you don't want in a guy: arrogant, and he frankly does not care about hiding it. He loves talking about himself more than anything or anyone else. He is that stereotype that you can easily picture flexing in front of the mirror or perfecting his hair and outfit before a night out at the bar. He has lots of jerseys and wears them everywhere. He will undoubtedly only text you on the weekends, usually just to ask if you are going out. You get excited, but wait -- you are wrong. You get to the bar and there he is with another girl. This species is mainly the most attractive type to women.


2. The one who HAS to have a girlfriend

This guy is typically weird. He goes from having a girlfriend and being madly in love to a new girl a couple days later. He is clearly insecure, so steer clear!


3. The one who is actually going somewhere in life

These guys come in many different ways and personalities. They could be a complete and utter skeeze or they could be the nicest man. They are always about their schoolwork and they strive to do well in their classes. If you were to check their internet history, it would be filled with internships. They are so consumed with what their future holds and that can even consist of their women. They have had their share of college girls and they are determined to find someone that is driven and successful, like themselves. These guys are always focused. If you want to get their attention, be like them, but you will have to be very special to accomplish this.


4. The clowns

You never know, he could have been given a bid to join the house, just because he's funny. He's always cracking jokes at social events and he is generally a good time.


5. The blackouts

He is the worst of the worst species of frat guys. It never fails that he blacks out at every party, even before it has started. You can also find him stumbling from person to person, trying to make conversation and then failing miserably. He will attempt to get it on the dancefloor, but will just end up passed out in the corner. Many people will get upset at him, for acting ridiculously stupid and annoying. Certainly, you can look for a text in the morning. He may be able to be slightly tolerable when and if he is sober, which may never happen.


6. The burnouts

This one is self-explanatory, but these guys spend their days getting high and not having a care in the world. I am sure he will grow out of it, but for now, he's got a long way to go.


7. The pretty boy

General stereotype: perfect hair with the shiny, white teeth and may have better skin than all us girls. He is always nice to look at and even have to take out on date night for girls to fawn over.


8. The f---- boy

He's like a pretty boy, with the whole package: perfect body, perfect hair and that rare take home to Mom and Dad vibe. Sadly, he is faker than a stereotypical sorority girl. Let's be honest, he has probably tried to get with all your friends.


9. The big brother

This guy is someone you look up to. He is the one that you share things to that you cannot tell your girl friends. Surprisingly, he will keep quiet and never tell a soul. When you need advice, he is always the one you call first. Even when you are having boy issues, you can count on him to give you a guy's perspective. He will try to guide you into the right direction, but sometimes you may think his advice is stupid and you won't listen to him. Just like a brother and sister, you constantly pick on each other, but you still love him no matter what he does.

10. The TFM

You guessed it, this is the guy that wears Sperrys, Chubbies and button downs. This guy is always caught taking pictures with a beer or two, in his hand; this picture also shows his letters and possibly a flag flying. If a TFM handbook exists, he lives exactly by it.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
