16 Different People You Will Find At The Gym
Huffingtonpost.com

The year has finally come to an end and everybody is planning their new year. In the next 365 days, people will have given up soda, chips, meat, candy, In-N-Out, cheese, beans, etc. However, in the next 3 months only 90% of those who made a New Year’s Resolution will stick their daily gym routines. But what about those who go almost 365 days of the year?

I decided to come up with a list of different kinds of people you can find at the gym. Here’s 13 types of people you can find at your gym.

  1. The Refrigerator: These are the people that are literally the size of a refrigerator. They are so strong, that every time they deadlift. However, even though they are one of the strongest people at the gym, they will never show off to anybody.
  2. The Washing Machine: Like the refrigerator, they are amongst the top 1% of the strongest at the gym, however, they tend to have a bad ego. You can hear them coming from a mile away, and they always have to say hi to 45 people before they start working out.
  3. The Assassin’s Creed: This is the person (usually guys) that wear black leggings, black shoes, long sleeve, black hoodie, and is usually staring at the ground. They come in, do what they have to do, and leave without taking their hoodie off. Nobody ever knows who they are.
  4. The Dicktionary: Although they have definition all over their body, they are dicks to everybody. No matter who you are, they will always be flexing in front of the mirror, or showing off their bodies to everybody else.
  5. The Naked Juice: These are the people who are usually 90% naked and never get kicked out of the gym for it.
  6. The Friendly Person: They will use the treadmill next to you, say "hi" to you, and tell you their whole life story.
  7. Mr. & Ms. Accessory: These are the people that will bring a belt, two water bottles, a sweater, a pair of shoes, their cell phones, a bag, a different shirt, wrist bands, a banana, etc. They will bring their whole house to the gym.
  8. The Surpriser: This is the person who is thinner than everybody at the gym but can bench more than most of the strongest people at the gym. Most of the time, these people go 3 times a week.
  9. The Hogger: They will take the bench press, squat rack, a machine, an extra bench, 3 sets of dumbbells, and an EZ bar at the same time.
  10. Ninja Warrior: The name says it all.
  11. Niagara Falls Inaugurator: This is the person that leaves sweat all over the benches without wiping it off.
  12. The Puzzle Breaker: This is probably 80% of the gym…You will have these people leaving their weights everywhere without re-racking them back to where they belong.
  13. The Kangaroo: Does upper body, skips leg day. I know some people are unable to work out their lower body for some medical reason, but those who can and decide to skip it, that’s who I’m talking about. Nothing wrong with that, but then you always hear them complaining about their lower body.
  14. Role Model: The humblest people at the gym that will usually let you work in between sets with them.
  15. Mr. WWE: They will slam any weight on to the ground, even if it’s a 2lb weight.
  16. Everybody Else.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

Happy Birthday Cake

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.
