The Enneagram test has taken the world by storm over these past few months. For those that don't know, this is a type of personality test that matches you to a number ranging from 1 to 9. Each number has a set of characteristics that best match your personality.

Enneagram 6's are the best type to be, but I'm pretty sure I have a biased opinion. So, if you are an Enneagram 6 too, you probably relate to one or more of these 17 characteristics:

We hang on to relationships/friendships for MUCH longer than we should because we hold on to the good we see in others. 

When we believe in something, we stick to it and will rarely change our ways. 

We are awful decision makers because we see an infinite number of options. 

We fear being abandoned by others and left alone. 

We are very anxious people because we want to do everything the "right" way. 

We are filled with compassion for others. 

We constantly need to be reassured of what we are doing. 

We wish we had a rule book for how to handle life's challenges. 

We are very hard workers who strive to do their best at everything. 

We are very good at deciphering between logic and emotion. 

We are very critical of ourselves because we constantly worry we have let others down. 

 We are very direct people, and we expect others to be direct with us too. 

 We thrive on stability and predictability. 

 We are always taking care of other people, sometimes to the point that we forget to care for ourselves. 

 We are very confident in some aspects, but very insecure in others. 

 We are workaholics. 

 We are incredibly loyal to the people we care about. 

In short, six's just need others to tell them they are doing a great job and that they are proud of us.

Happy Enneagramming!

Summer: a time (usually) free from school work and a time to relax with your friends and family. Maybe you go on a vacation or maybe you work all summer, but the time off really does help. When you're in college you become super close with so many people it's hard to think that you won't see many of them for three months. But, then you get that text saying, "Hey, clear your schedule next weekend, I'm coming up" and you begin to flip out. Here are the emotions you go through as your best friend makes her trip to your house.

Winter break is over, we're all back at our respective colleges, and the first week of classes is underway. This is a little bit how that week tends to go.

The professor starts to go over something more than the syllabus

You get homework assigned on the first day of class

There are multiple group projects on the syllabus

You learn attendance is mandatory and will be taken every class

Professor starts chatting about their personal life and what inspired them to teach this class

Participation is mandatory and you have to play "icebreaker games"

Everybody is going out because its 'syllabus week' but you're laying in bed watching Grey's Anatomy

Looking outside anytime past 8 PM every night of this week

Nobody actually has any idea what's happening this entire week

Syllabus week is over and you realize you actually have to try now...or not

Now it's time to get back into the REAL swing of things. Second semester is really here and we all have to deal with it.

Whether you specialized in ringing people up or preparing the food, if you worked at Panera Bread it holds a special place in your heart. Here are some signs that you worked at Panera in high school.

1. You own so many pairs of khaki pants you don’t even know what to do with them

Definitely the worst part about working at Panera was the uniform and having someone cute come in. Please don’t look at me in my hat.

7 Ways to Make Your Language More Transgender and Nonbinary Inclusive

With more people becoming aware of transgender and non-binary people, there have been a lot of questions circulating online and elsewhere about how to be more inclusive. Language is very important in making a space safer for trans and non-binary individuals. With language, there is an established and built-in measure of whether a place could be safe or unsafe. If the wrong language is used, the place is unsafe and shows a lack of education on trans and non-binary issues. With the right language and education, there can be more safe spaces for trans and non-binary people to exist without feeling the need to hide their identities or feel threatened for merely existing.
