11 Ways To Spot A "Type A" From Miles Away
claudiamegbailey.files.wordpress.com

Welcome to the daily life of someone with a Type A personality. The recipe for a typical day includes: the dire need to strive for perfection while boarding of the "struggle bus" when attempting to “take a chill pill,” or, in other words, “be less of a spaz.” These are all things that anyone who identifies with the Type A personality experiences regularly. It’s hard not to spot these qualities, however, I will attempt to put a clear depiction to this recipe for the ultimate try hard, as a self proclaimed Type A myself. I have to poke a little bit of fun at myself for this sometime, right? So, here it goes. Starting with the most obvious images, I present to you, the telltale signs of a Type A coming your way.

1. This person is walking fast.

Type A’s: They know exactly where they are going at all times, who they are going to see, and when they need to be there. It’s all written down in their planner.

2. Speaking of planners… They have fully detailed ones.

And they keep them close at all times. They are their bibles and forgetting things is their biggest fear.

3. They also have another place to store their schedule.

What? Why? Well, some use sticky notes, their phones, or just their heads, but (surprise!) making sure they don’t miss something they need to do is constantly at the top of their list of priorities so the planner isn’t quite enough.

4. Their outfits are on point.

Things don’t just match by default. Not at the level that these people’s outfits do. They put thought into everything so you better bet that there were meticulous decisions made the night before the perfect outfit’s debut.

5. That brings us to an important point about preparation.

These people spend forever working on even the smallest necessities. Every task at hand is equally as important to them and must be given maximum effort.

6. Therefore, they are very busy.


7. And as if being busy doing necessary tasks isn’t good enough, these people tend to overbook themselves with many different obligations in the first place.


And they have to be prepared for everything because there is no time to stop at home.^^^

8. But that’s okay because they will get it all done…somehow.


9. While internally screaming of stress in the

midst of trying to look put together.

10. And chugging along for as long as it takes for their job to get done.


11. But feeling the feels of finishing a task with more joy than anyone else

Because when they finally hit the bed after a long day of schedule balancing acts, they are on top of the entire world.

I remember my freshman year oh so well. I remember feeling terrified the night before orientation. The one thing that I dreaded the most was not the new people, the new environment, or even the academic pressure. I was dreading having to talk to sorority girls about Recruitment. I remember cutting off and avoiding any Rho Gamma/Panhellenic Officer that came my way during First Week. I looked at them like they had asked me to cut my arm off whenever they asked me if I wanted to rush. To be honest, I did not even know what rush was, but I knew that I did NOT want to be a part of it. To me, it was dumb. It was a waste of money. It was a waste of my time.

And guess what? I did not rush my freshman year. I spent the first half of my freshman year isolating myself from everyone on campus. I spent all of my time in the library, and then (since I was a commuter) went back home once my work was finished.

Tiana would no doubt be disappointed in the food our cafeteria has to offer.

And hopefully she would cook for everyone in her dorm.

She definitley would not take any 8:00 am classes because she would be up late baking and cleaning up the communal kitchen that are available in every dorm.
