Five Signs You're A Bar Grandma
Giphy

There is a secret society of students that are among us at Ohio University. They are hard to discover, but when you do, the signs become obvious. I am, of course, talking about the students whose raging preferences look more like a 61-year-old's rather than a 21-year-old's. I am proudly among these students. Often, these students blend in with average students, but there is one time where #GrandmaStatus is more obvious than ever before — going out. There are five specific signs to look for to determine if you are, in fact, a grandma at heart.

1. You always want to go out (and come home) earlier than everyone else.

Going out at 11 p.m.? LOL. That's not going to happen unless you spend the day pumping your veins full of coffee and Red Bull. Not to mention, Fest Season is your favorite time of year because it's the only time your friends are okay with going home before 2 a.m.

2. Bed > Bars

Nothing makes you happier than ending the night with all your belongings and your No. 1 BAE — your bed. The comfort of your bed always trumps sticky floors and bathrooms without toilet paper.

3. Your going out clothes are comfortable.

The only thing you appreciate more than a girl who can rock wedges and a strapless bra is your own pair of jeans and converse. Bless those who can make it through the night looking #flawless, but you're just proud of yourself for making it out in the first place.

4. Your favorite part of going out is getting food.

Let be honest, whether it's popcorn from the Stal or Wings Over on the walk home, the food selection for your night out trumps any happy hour special there is, or ever will be.

5. You're always budgeting.

Getting a little liquid courage in your veins does nothing to stop you from sticking to your night-out budget. You search the happy hour boards for the best deal and make sure you don't cut into you drunk-food cash. You're only wish in life is that bar coupons existed...

Now that Halloween is over, it's time to focus on the Holiday Season. Don't get me wrong, I think Thanksgiving is great and can't wait for it, but nothing gives me greater joy than watching Freeform's 25 Days of Christmas, lighting peppermint scented candles, decking the halls, and baking gingerbread cookies. So while we approach the greatest time of the year, let's watch the 15 best Christmas movies of all time.

6 Signs You Are An English Major

There are various stereotypes about college students, most of which revolve around the concept of your major. Unfortunately, we often let stereotypes precede our own judgments, and we take what information is immediately available to us rather than forming our own opinions after considerable reflection. If I got a dollar for every time my friends have made a joke about my major I could pay my tuition. One stereotype on campus is the sensitive, overly critical and rigid English major. Here are six telltale signs you are one of them.

When you were little, your parents probably told you television makes your brain rot so you wouldn't watch it for twelve straight hours. However, I feel we can learn some pretty valuable stuff from television shows. "The Office," while a comedy, has some pretty teachable moments thrown in there. You may not know how to react in a situation where a co-worker does something crazy (like put your office supplies in jello) but thanks to "The Office," now you'll have an idea how to behave ifsomething like that should happen.

Here are just a few of the things that religious Office watchers can expect to learn.
