Hi guys!

My name is Jamie Wheeler, and I am a new writer for The Odyssey. You can expect many articles coming your way, but for now, I should tell you a little about myself. I’ll assume you have some questions for me.

Where do you attend school?

I’m a junior at Georgia Southern University, where I’m pursuing a BA in English.

Okay, but what are you going to do with an English degree?

Well, I should start by saying that English is an excellent choice as a major, and I am offended by your tone. Really, I hope to someday teach high school. As long as my career involves literature, I know I’ll be happy.

What is your spirit animal?

A snow leopard, but not a very aggressive one.

Talents?

I just have so many. I play both clarinet and ukulele, but my real gift is cutting paper snowflakes. I can say the alphabet backwards, and I’m great at avoiding conversation. But wait, there's more. I also do a mediocre Celine Dion impression. Plus, I know all the words to every song in NSYNC’s No Strings Attached album.

Passions and interests?

I love reading, and I’m a huge musical theater fan. I also love Disney, Corgis, 90’s romantic comedies, corn dogs, and Elton John.

What are your feelings about Shrek?

It is utterly hilarious, and clearly the best movie of all time. If you disagree, you’re wrong.

Anything else you’d like us to know?

I laugh at everything, I always request The Electric Slide at parties, and I’m extremely excited to continue writing for The Odyssey. Until next time, guys!

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

College is a great place to meet people, especially through Greek life. If you look closely at sororities, you'll quickly see there are many different types of girls you will meet.

1. The Legacy.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September. It becomes harder and harder to focus in classes and while doing assignments as the days get closer. The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.
