Going to a Catholic, all girls high school changes you. There's no doubt about it. Even though the schoolwork was extremely challenging and you missed knowing boys, now that you've graduated you are grateful for your years there because you wouldn't be who you are today without it. So here are some things that make you different from the general population and some telltale signs that you attended an all girls, Catholic high school:

1. After 4 years of a uniform or dress code, being able to wear leggings anytime you want is still VERY exciting.

"What do you mean, buying three new pairs of leggings in one shopping trip is excessive?"

2. Your college girlfriends complain about how little you shave.

"We can't have cuddly movie nights if you legs are so prickly!"
"I shaved, like, two weeks ago. Isn't that enough?"

3. "Solidarity" has become a frequently used word in your vocabulary.

"How did this service project cause you to live in solidarity with others?"

4. General education classes are almost too easy.

"Write a 10-page paper by next week? I got this. I took AP English, APUSH, AP Calc, AP Art History, AND two other classes senior year."

5. Even in college, where you may dress nicely more often, you still know the value in wearing no makeup, a hoodie, and Uggs to class.

"My style changes from absolute scrub to classy lady on the daily."

6. Speaking of the no makeup look, you know it is not necessary, nor does it define you.

"I am a strong, independent women who don't need no makeup!"

7. People are always impressed that you can put up the fastest and most functional bun in the nation.

"How did you do your top knot? Teach me your ways."
"Um, I don't know, I just, like, threw it up?"

8. At least one time in your high school career (probably around prom) you threatened to became a nun.

"Boys suck and I don't even know any. I should just become a nun."

9. At least one time in your high school career (probably around finals week) you also threatened to become a stripper.

"I can't study anymore. I'm dropping out and becoming a stripper; it'll be so much easier."

10. But despite your threats, you've always cared (maybe too much) about doing well in school.

"Guys, I'm basically failing my Macroeconomics class. What am I going to do, I'll never make it to grad school or get a job or make enough money to pay off my student loans and I'll be in debt forever."
"What are you talking about, you have a B in Macro."

11. You are extremely open about your feminist beliefs and are always advocating girl power.

"Have you read 'Lean In' yet? Or '#GIRLBOSS?' But really, we need a woman president already! And more female CEOs. And don't get me started on the wage gap."

12. Speaking of feminism, sexist jokes are SO not funny.

"A woman's place is in the kitchen."
"Oh yes, you are SO right. Wait here while I grab a knife."

13. You are still overly vocal about your bodily functions. #noshame

"Sorry, was that too much information?"

14. Even if you go to a school where there are four girls to every guy, it still seems like there are males everywhere. And you love it. Secretly.

"I like to call myself a professional boy scout. Get it? Because I, you know, scout for boys."

15. People are surprised when they find out you went to an all girls high school, because you are so social, even with boys. *gasp*

"I went to an all girls high school, I didn't live under a rock."

16. You have absolutely, entirely no reason to be anything but wholeheartedly yourself.

"I am me, whether society accepts that or not."

17. You believe in building other females up, not tearing them down.

"You are my friend, my sister, and my peer. Not my competition."

18. You have concrete opinions and there is no way in Hell you're staying silent.

"Forget the age of females pretending to not have thoughts and ideas. I do. I am a powerful woman who has something to say."

19. Beyonce is basically the soundtrack to your life.

"Who runs the world? Girls."

20. Your Catholic, all girls high school changed you for the better. And you're freaking proud of it.
