In the last six months, I have probably been called “extra" as many times as I have been called by my own name. At first, I was completely insulted. I found myself thinking, “Just because my favorite color is glitter, I write my class notes in pink gel pen, and I have a slight social media addiction does NOT make me extra." After that thought, I really had to stop myself, because I realized that I am actually the full embodiment of your stereotypical “extra" girl. In my opinion, it's not necessarily a bad thing, either. If frat boys can start drinking at nine in the morning without judgment, you bet your ass I'm going to wear a pink monogrammed vest without batting an eyelash.

So, this one goes out to all my ladies who take no offense to being called “extra". Respect.

1. One of the very first things you asked your freshman year roommate was what her “colors" were so you could coordinate room decor.

I really hope my roommate from freshman year is reading this. She's a real champ for putting up with my incessant texts asking what color monograms we should order just a week after agreeing to deal with me for a year.

2. You take party themes more seriously than you took your SATs.

Ever heard of a “Tundra Rave"? Yeah, me neither. That didn't stop me from being the only girl at the party wearing neon leggings and a pom-pom hat. Killed it.

3. You've had your wedding planned since middle school, down to the font on the save-the-date cards.

You *may* have even chosen the mini tuxedo that your future dog will wear as your ring bearer.

4. You may have also planned your best friend's wedding, and are still in the process of accepting the fact that she wants camouflage in her color scheme.

You'll probably accept it by their 20th anniversary. Probably.

5. You're a frat groupie.

You also have a slight tendency to get annoyed when "your boys" don't give you the special treatment you deserve.

6. You blow up your friends' phones like it's nobody's business.

Some girl had the NERVE to take your assigned-unassigned seat in Philosophy 101? Your best friends can expect about 17 separate texts about how much you want to disrupt class to force her to move. They'll probably temporarily hate you for it.

7. You're probably the reason single people hate Valentine's Day.

Aggressive Instagram post about how much you love your boyfriend? Check. Two-hundred-second-long Snapchat story of all the amazing things your boyfriend planned for the day? Check. Facebook post thanking him for such an incredible day, and a cute candid to go with it? Check. Twelve people unfriending you because of how annoying all your posts have been? Also check.

8. Speaking of boyfriends, your boyfriend probably somehow always manages to find glitter stuck to his skin or clothing.

It's the price he pays for having such a loving (definitely not clingy) girlfriend.

9. Your friends hate taking pictures for you, because it takes around 743 photos to get one that has the perfect lighting, angle and pose.

“Take it again, it doesn't look candid enough."

10. You have a detailed strategy to Instagram posts.

Honestly, your posts are so perfectly edited, captioned, and timed that you should just be handed a marketing degree.

11. Your day planner and class notes are meticulously color-coded and organized.

When people ask why you spend hours re-writing all the notes you already wrote in class, you lie and say you “left some things out," even though you really just want them to be pretty.

12. You've already planned your future children's matching outfits.

Your kids may hate you, but you can get at least a few good Christmas cards in before they realize they can fight back.

13. You go above and beyond for the people you love.

Whether it be a surprise party or a Christmas gift, you won't stop until you are positive there has been no little detail overlooked. And, of course, it's perfectly tailored to your loved one's tastes. Although they may be occasionally annoyed by your dramatic reactions to slight inconveniences, they're also reminded of how caring and thoughtful you can be.
