Sinners and Saints Bar

Whether it's Ladies' Night, or you're going out bar hopping with the boo thing, you're getting yourself mentally ready for anything and everything. As you're picking out which high heels to wear, and letting your hair dry, prepare yourself for these types of people that you will run into at a bar.

1. The Regular

When you go to that one bar that you and your friends all enjoy, you notice the same man there every time. He's not a bother to anyone, and most of the time he's just hovering over a beer looking at the drunk people. You'll never know how intoxicated he may be because he keeps to himself.

2. The Party Girl

She may be shoving drinks down your throat or someone else's. Either way, if she sees you without an alcoholic beverage, chances are she's going to take seven shots for you and then feed you seven of your own shots. She's the reason they call it a pub crawl.

3. The Hunter

This person came out for the hunt. He may have come out alone, but he's not going home alone. When he comes up behind you and starts dancing with you, you better have one good friend that's prepared to pull you away.

4. The Brooder

Something went terribly, terribly wrong over the course of this person's life. He may be on the verge of being a regular and he's definitely the person that you just want to hug when you sit down next to him. Or perhaps you're too afraid to sit next to him because no one else is. He has a tendency to give chilling vibes that make the seats around him unavailable.

5. The Drunk Mom

Tell the bartender to keep the wine coming because this mom knows how to go hard. She's past the Franzia boxed wine phase, and her kids have driven her mad. It wouldn't be a terrible thing to be her in your older days. She seems rather fun as she cackles and hoots. She becomes annoying when she starts worrying constantly about if she left the stove on.

6. The Bottomless Pit


For the duration of the night, you've watched this person throw back a variety of drinks. You envy the strength of their liver, but you do not envy their wallet. Wait a few more drinks before you start putting your drinks on his tab.

7. The Dancer

The dancer is perfect for a Ladies' Night because every song is their jam, so you'll be dancing the night away for sure. She doesn't care who's watching, she's going to sing her heart out and spin circles around everyone. She even keeps going after she falls flat on her face.

8. Then there's me

I'm not purposefully awkward by any means, it's a gift. Most of the time I'm watching everyone stumble around, and other times I'm simply praying no one touches me. There are those rare occasions when I hope someone will talk to me, but not usually. I just want to observe everyone so I can find things to write about the next day.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
