If you're a true Coloradan, you'll know it if...

You remember playing on this as a kid

Sam Talks About Shopping

This has now been replaced, but man, THOSE WERE THE DAYS. Cherry Creek Mall will never be the same...

You probably went here with your school at some point...

YAC

This takes me back down memory lane. The first time I went was in fifth grade with my school and I was a DJ (my class probably got sick of Selena Gomez that day...). I loved it so much, I went back for a summer camp and I was the mayor. You could say I'm kind of a big deal.

You know all about this place and probably have been here AT LEAST once

I have only been here a couple of times. Subpar food, cool cliff divers, and my best memory is collecting a ton of Tootsie Rolls.

You know the donut place to hit up is Voodoo Doughnuts

Back in the day they only accepted cash, but now they take card! This is THE place to hit up if you're ever on or around Colfax.

You know the most popular car in Colorado is hands down the Subaru Outback

You have to agree, this car is arguably the most popular car in Colorado. My husband, who's from Nebraska, even got one after he lived here for a little while (and I hate it).

You know who this guy is

Sam En Croute

ROBO MIKE! You definitely have seen this legend hanging around 16th Street Mall at least once in your life.

Your favorite concert venue is Red Rocks

Red Rocks is the most dreamy, amazing concert venue I've been to. I've seen OneRepublic, 21 Pilots, G-Eazy, and so many other artists here. Literally the best venue ever.

You probably sing "Boulder" in 'Closer' by The Chainsmokers a little louder than the rest of the song

I mean, duh. How can you NOT sing this line a little louder than the others? You should hear how excited college students in our state sing this when they're drunk at a party...it's LOUD.

You know all about the Denver Airport conspiracy theories

Secret bunkers. Strangely placed runways. New World Order. Must I say more?

...and you know the story behind Blucifer

I can't shake the goosebumps this dude gives me when I see his red eyes glaring whenever I pass him going to the airport. He has literally killed someone...like WHAT?!

You always know which way is west thanks to the mountains

If you're ever lost, no fear. Just look for the mountains and you know you're headed west.

You know not to travel through DTC during rush hour

DON'T. DO. IT. I-25 becomes a literal parking lot during rush hour. Take the normal roads, but be aware those will be busy too.

You have a preference when it comes to whether you want to listen to 95.7 or 107.5

95.7 The Party

I'm definitely a 95.7 The Party type of gal, but everyone has a preference between the two! Also side note: I was in the room during this interview with Madison Beer (pictured above).

You get really into the race between these 3 at Colorado Rockies games

Twitter

Everyone gets hyped when these three roll up on the field. Also, GO TOOTHPASTE.

Go Rockies!

You usually pick a side when the Rocky Mountain Showdown game happens every year

As a previous CU Boulder student...all I'll say is IT SUCKS TO BE A CSU RAAAAM!

Boulder always takes this one...give it up already CSU.

Sko buffs.

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.

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.
