17 Things Most College Girls Love, But Some Of Us Can Do WITHOUT

We do really like food and being fed, though.

With every different group of people, there are stereotypes that come along with them.

College girls also have those stereotypes, and most of them are true, but there are some things not every girl likes/does (there are always exceptions, right?).

We may have different ideas about these 17 things, but us college girls love sleep and food and can't get enough of either one.

1. Pumpkin Spice anything

Ok. Maybe it's just me, but pumpkin spice really isn't that great. Where are my peppermint people at?

2. Athletic Nike shorts

I don't even own a pair of these, but I see girls wear them all the time. I don't see what the big deal is with them. I'll stick to wearing non-athletic shorts.

3. Messy buns

Personally, I don't like these because my hair is kind of my trademark since it's so long. Plus I feel so un-put together when my hair is up.

4. Guy's clothing

Hoodies are a different story (they're just more comfortable), but there's no way I'd ever ask to borrow someone's shirt, sweats, etc., to keep as my own basically. It's their stuff, and I always return hoodies even if they end up forgetting I have it.

5. Giant t-shirts

I like t-shirts as much as the next college girl, but I like ones that actually fit. Not ones that completely cover my butt and looks like I'm not wearing pants if I'm wearing shorts.

6. Leggings

Leggings make me feel uncomfortable. It's almost like I'm not even wearing pants which is just weird. I'd much rather wear jeans.

7. Uggs

These aren't as popular as they used to be, but they're so ugly. There are tons of other types of shoes and boots to be worn.

8. Makeup

How do people find the money to do this? How did they even find the talent? Like... what??????? Regardless, less is more has always been my makeup situation. Definitely a fan of the more natural look.

9. Skinny jeans

Up until about a year ago, I never even had a pair of skinny jeans. I always wore bootcut and flare which is still my preference.

10. Crop tops

I've only worn one and kept feeling the need to pull the shirt down to fully cover my stomach. Power to the girls who want to/like wearing them though.

11. Having their friends take candid pictures of/for them.

Every day on Instagram I see girls hugging each other, laughing, doing something random and I know their friends probably took 50+ pictures of them to get a good one. Just not my thing. I don't need people taking pictures of me or being all over me for a picture. I don't like being touched.

12. Coming up with super witty Instagram captions.

The punny ones are pretty good, but sometimes just writing what you're doing works out best or just not having one at all. Sometimes I don't understand the inside jokes you have with your friends, so the caption seems irrelevant.

13. iPhones

Androids all the way. I like being able to customize my phone and doing what I want with it. Plus I don't have to check whether or not it will have a headphone jack because it will.

14. Sororities and anything sorority related

I don't have an issue with people wanting to be in greek life, but it is not my cup of tea at all. It seems to be a headache, expensive, and a huge commitment. Never been to one of their parties either, and I have no interest in going to one anyway.

15. Getting their nails done

Some girls are serious about this and get theirs done every two weeks. Sometimes getting them done is nice, but it can be expensive.

16. Shopping

I hate shopping. Nothing fits, and yet again, clothes are expensive. Do something more productive and free.

17. Going "all out" for their college football team.

I'm all for school pride, but I don't see the need in being super serious about it. Throw on a t-shirt or a hat, and call it a day. From experience, most of the girls don't pay attention to the game anyway.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
