28 Signs You've Found Your People In College
Olivia Allison

Good, bad, and ugly; they are there for it all. They understand you better than you do sometimes, and we couldn't imagine going through college without them. To my future bridesmaids, current shoulders to cry on, and forever dance partners: stay golden. Thank you for all you do.

1. You spend 95% of your time together.

You might as well be attached at the hip, because you are never seen without each other.

2. They know your go-to snacks and coffee orders.

Community Dunkin' Donuts runs are a Saturday morning norm.

3. They can tell you're upset within minutes of being around you.


All it takes is a certain look or gesture and a vent session is in the making. And most of the time, you won't even need to explain who or what you are talking about because they already know.

4. They know the type of guy you are into and do not hold back when they think you deserve better.

Forget Tinder, walking down the street with them could be a full on dating app. Whether it's wardrobe or height, chances are they will see the guy before you even have the chance to.

5. Your wardrobes have blended together into a universal stockpile of clothing.

And when you absolutely CANNOT find an outfit, you just move on to the next closet.

6. You know each other's friends from home by their first name and probably follow them on social media.

7. They make an effort to get to know your significant other, and you there's.

You have all mastered the art of third wheeling and thrive in it.

8. Your group chat is active 24/7.

9. And so is your location.

Because it is not enjoyable losing each other during a bar crawl or house party.

10. You have started listing each other as your emergency contacts.

Who would be more responsible than your roomies?

11. You find yourself telling the same story 6 or 7 times just to make sure everyone knows what is going on.

12. You have pregame rituals that are crucial for a successful night out.

"Cheers to the ones who loved us, the losers who lost us, and the lucky (kind, respectable) people that get to meet us".

13. When you go out together, there are a lot of coordinated dance moves.

And you all begin to act like Beyonce strutting around Midway.

14. You always have the ultimate wing-women.

15. You know the song that will make everyone scream.

Hello Chainsmokers and Chance the Rapper.

16. You can guarantee a risky text has been peer-reviewed by at least half the group.

17. They are your ultimate pep squad when getting ready to go out or heading into a hard exam.

18. Nothing is off limits in conversation.

19. And those conversations can range from food to that weird story from that one time freshman year at Bullwinkles.

20. Other people think you guys are absolutely insane.

You say insane, we say hilarious.

21. And you find yourselves being referred to as a package deal.

Don't even try to only put a few of you on the list into a party, all or nothing folks.

22. Your social media is just a collage of the whole squad.

23. But you can never seem to get a picture that everyone is satisfied with.

You have perfected the boy band pose and fight for your "good sides".

24. If someone messes with you, they mess with everyone.

Loyalty runs deep.

25. They've been with you through your worst and best moments.

26. They will drop everything and come to your side if need be.

27. You fight with each other like sisters.

28. But at the end of the day, they are home.

11 College Misconceptions Every Incoming Freshman Needs To Know

Think of everything that you've heard about college... and completely forget it.

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

Girl With Bleached Hair
Tumblr

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.
