Are You Like Jess From 'New Girl'?

Whether you watch the show or not, you might find that you're more like Jess than you think. If you are awkward, funny, outgoing, have a solid group of friends, and are just straight up cool then you're most likely the "Jess" in your friend group.

1. You spot a cute guy.

When you are casually drinking your morning coffee and catching up on some reading, bam! You can't help but start to drool and awkwardly stare at the 6'4 tall blonde that just walked in.


2. You sing to yourself.

Whether you're singing in the shower, or singing in a public restroom, you know that eventually you will never be alone. Someone is bound to join in.


3. You call yourself weird.

Your guy friend stares at you and your best friend from across the room while you all are making weird noises at each other…sorry that's our form of communication.



4. You can be heartless at times.

Every girl can admit that they can be heartless. "This world revolves around me, not you."


5. You can sometimes be a little judgmental.

You see that girl that is hanging all over her boyfriend of a week. I'm staring at you because I'm slightly confused and slightly jealous.


6. It's possible you don't always make the right decisions.

Always asking your closest friends to make a decision for you because you're obviously too indecisive. "Do I stay up late, eat this bowl of ice cream, skip class in the morning, or do all three?"


7. You wonder why people think like they do...

Your friend comes to you and tells you she is having relationship issues. She proceeded to tell you that her boyfriend hasn't texted back in a whole five minutes.


8. You are the life of the party.

You walk into a room and want people to recognize you have arrived. "The party obviously doesn't start until I walk in."


9. You end up in the wrong place during serious events.

You just heard how Becky actually was with her ex-boyfriend last night, but then her current boyfriend is your best friend. If there was a table I probably would crawl under it and never come out.


10. You try to avoid confrontation however you can.

Your friends get together for a nice and quiet movie night, but all of a sudden your friend starts nitpicking at you for something you did last week. The only thing keeping you from speaking are all those cookies you're shoveling into your mouth.


11. You don't always feel 100 percent about your appearance.

While putting on your spring break swimsuit, you ask your friends how you look. The looks on their faces reveal to you that it is not the right one. "I actually lost a whole pound last week so you can stop staring."


12. No matter what, you always have your friends.

Through thick and thin, you always have your group of friends that you can be weird and awkward with, and they still love you unconditionally.

The new girl doesn't always have to be the one who doesn't fit in. No, the new girl can be the girl who fits in because people like her distinctive personality. The "Jess" in any friend group is the one you will remember having the best of adventures and memories with. So…if you related to all these, then congratulations! People should feel honored to have you as a friend.

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.

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.
