7 People You'll See At The Gym

Every once in a while I get on this health kick and suddenly all I want to do is workout, eat right, and get healthy. Normally this fades after a few weeks when I realize pizza, eating out and Netflix are way more fun than waking up at five a.m. to go to the gym. But for right now, I'm going to try working out and see if i can get it to stick. When you go to the gym there are a few different people that you will definitely see...

1. The Fashionista

Literally using going to the gym as an excuse to buy new clothes. And you can't help but wonder where she got them from.

2. The Clique

They all came together, they workout next to each other, they lift weights together, they get drinks of water together, maybe they pee together, who knows? But whenever they go they go there together

3. The Old People

You watch them and think, "You go, old man! You've got this!" And you're also a little jealous that they are in better shape when your supposed to be in your prime.

4. The Arms

Usually a guy, but could be a girl, who has massive arms but obviously skips leg day. So their legs just look like tiny tooth picks sticking out from their shorts.

5. The Lost Child

The one who you can't help but feel bad for because it's painfully obvious that they have no clue what they are doing.

6. The Fantasy

These people look perfect. Their arms, legs, abs, everything is perfectly toned. They are what you want to look like at the end of the day. Plus they are usually really nice to look at.

7. The Worst

This person could be any of the aforementioned types but this person you hate with every inch of your soul. This person stole your machine. Yes, you know that technically you don't own it but you use it all the time so it's almost yours. And not they've taken it from you and so you'll hate them forever.

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.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.

Thanksgiving break is over and Christmas is just around the corner and that means, for most college students, one hellish thing — finals week. It's the one time of year in which the library becomes over populated and mental breakdowns are most frequent. There is no way to avoid it or a cure for the pain that it brings. All we can do is hunker down with our books, order some Dominos, and pray that it will all be over soon. Luckily, we are not alone in this suffering. To prove it, here are just a few of the many deranged thoughts that go through a college student's mind during finals week.

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.
