7 Things All Sweaty People Know

I feel like everyone can agree that one of the worst things about summer is sweating. It's something everyone does, but some do tend to sweat more than others. Yeah, like me. I'm a sweaty person. That's one of the reasons why winter is my favorite season, but I can't even avoid sweating during the coldest months of the year because someone will inevitably crank the heat up in a classroom or in their room and I won't be able to escape. But this is a pretty common struggle, so here are LKGJAOI things that all sweaty people know:

1. Layers are essential.

Layers are your best friend, especially during the season changes. The amount of clothing you can wear without sweating varies greatly depending on the time of day and the room you're in, so it's important to have layers that you can take off in order to sweat less.

2. You have to plan more.

I know that I tend to leave earlier for classes than I probably need to because I want to give myself enough time to stop sweating before I have to start scribbling notes or translating Greek. One time I messed up and got to a class with only a minute to spare and my professor was confused as to why I was sweating so much. No worries, I always sweat that much.

3. Deodorant, Deodorant, Deodorant.

Forgetting to put on deodorant can be a death sentence. Don't forget this.

4. Body Spray.

Just a little dab will do ya, but a spritz of body spray can go a long way to helping you smell fresher longer. But don't use too much because that's just rude...

5. Odor Eaters.

Feet are weird extremities and they love sweating more than most of your body. Usually, the only thing that can save your shoes are Odor Eaters, these weird inserts that have saved my life a couple times.

6. Makeup problems.

I know that I've given up on most of my makeup simply because I don't want to deal with the inevitable smudges and slides that often happen when I get a little warm.

7. You know how to cool yourself off.

I know that for me, I have to run my wrists under cold water if I get really warm, but there are a couple tricks that all sweaty people know to cool themselves off.

Well, now you may know too much about me, but sweat isn't something most of us can hide and it's something we all do. It's how we deal with our sweat that defines us.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
