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.

College is a crazy, beautiful, amazing whirlwind. It is highly popularized in television and movies, but not necessarily in the most accurate way. Yes, there's frats, dingy dorms, raging house parties—but there's also a lot that people fail to mention.

1. If you thought that you knew how to study, you're wrong.

All of your classes aren't taught every day, so professors aren't on your case constantly about reading and memorizing material. Once you get back that "questionable" first exam grade, you'll kick it into high gear and figure out what works for you

Your mom: you can't live with her, but you can't live without her. You love your mom, but she is insanely predictable. Here is a list of things your mom has probably done.

I've been a bleach blonde for over a year now, and let me tell you, it is a lifestyle. More hair appointments, longer showers, and special shampoo. But it is totally worth it!

1. Mentally preparing yourself to convince your hair dresser that white is the way to go.

2. Or the anxiety of what could go wrong by bleaching your hair at home.

3. You could either become a ginger

4. Or a pixie

5. The face you make in the mirror when you take off your towel to unveil the perfect white strands.

6. Taking a million selfies the day you bleached it, because you know your roots will be back in literally 2 days.

7. Having to get bangs or a big chop because your hair is so damaged.

8. Having orange highlights in between touch-ups.

9. Going out for a drink afterwards to debut your updated look.

Despite the struggles, you love your platinum blonde hair! You make sure Instagram knows it, too. You don't need a filter, because the color is flawless by itself!

Finals: just thinking about them gives you anxiety. Only two weeks separate you from summer, but they're the longest of the semester. There's a familiarity to this season, now that you have had so many testing cycles under your belt. But that doesn't quell the ever present stress to pass your finals and your classes. Even better, as a package deal during these wonderful weeks, you get to wake up early to study and you get to take exams that can begin anytime from 7 A.M. to 7 P.M. Now that we have established that this week is not fun, here are some super relatable moments that punctuate finals week.

I've been at this college thing for almost three and a half years, and while I thought that high school was truly the lowest point of my existence, I'm beginning to realize that it was a walk in the park. Like, I miss the days when the biggest white lie I told my parents was my made up excuse about being late for fourth period. These days, the white lies are a tad more complex, and as ashamed as I am to admit it, I've definitely told a few of these.
