5 Signs You Are The Hugger Of Your Family Or Friend Group

Do you admire characters like Danny Tanner from "Full House" or Josh from "Drake and Josh"? Do you enjoy a good old hug?

Hugging always provides some sort of comfort and safety. I am not talking about those half- hugs where there are limp arms and no love. I am talking about those hugs from family and friends where you feel the warmth and get a solid squeeze.

Do you always want to 'hug it out' after an argument with your friend or family? Does nothing make you more satisfied than a good old fashioned hug?

If you said yes to any of or even both of these two questions, you may be the Number One go to person for hugs in your family or friend group.

Here are some other signs that you are the hugger of your family or friend group....

1. You always greet people with some sort of physical gesture.

Whether it is a hand-shake ( or some may even call it a hand hug), you always want to greet your friend or family member in the nicest way possible. A way that shows how happy you are to see them.

2. You long for better hugs.

Nothing is worse than a half-assed hug. Unfortunately, not many people these days understand the true meaning of how to give a nice, good hug. You wish you could teach your loved ones how to properly hug. It even gets to the point where you call them out on their poor hugging skills.

3. You like to cuddle.

Chances are, if you like to cuddle you also like to hug. I mean, if you really think about it cuddling is like hugging except not standing up. If you like being close to your loved one or feeling their warmth then chances are you also like hugs.

4. You admire Danny Tanner.

You probably know the character Danny Tanner from Full House ( and now Fuller House). One of his main character traits is that he loves to clean and that his go-to way to solve problems is to 'hug it out.' If you find yourself admiring this logic, chances are you are a hugger too.

5. You get happy when you watch other people hug.

If you find yourself smiling when you see others embrace each other. Not because you are creepy or anything... Just simply because you know how nice hugs are and what they mean. You find it sweet when family and friends show that they actually tolerate each other.

If any of these 5 traits sound like you, chances are you are the hugger of your friend group. Like I have mentioned above, a good hug is harder and harder to come by these days. I urge you to keep the hugging culture alive. Even if you aren't a so called "hugger," all I ask is if you could give a hug a day. One hug can really brighten your and the receiver's day. Don't question it, don't underestimate it.

Share the hugs, show the your loved one how much you care with a simple hug!

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week. For some students, it's their first time in the library all semester, maybe ever. Others have slaved away many nights under the fluorescent lights, and are slightly annoyed to find their study space being invaded by amateurs. While these newbies wander aimlessly around the first floor, hopelessly trying to find a table, the OGs of the library are already on the third floor long tables deep into their studies. Here is a few signs that you may live in the library, whether you'd like to admit it or not.
