The 6 Types Of College Dorm Guys

We like them, date them, and other things; but we're all too good for them.

Life in a college dorm obviously has its pros and cons. You're finally on your own, living your own way, but you also share your bathroom with fifteen other people. You live with several other people you call your best friends, but there is the dealing with their loud music at midnight. All in all, there're just some things you'll never get to experience once you graduate. The different types of guys are one of those things.

1. The guy who is no longer a hot football player, but thinks he is.

I mean, almost all of us just graduated in June with the expectation that we'd drop those antics in college. Unfortunately, this type of guy, usually named "Chase", "John", "Jacob", or "Justin", among others, is still stuck in his glory days. I'm sorry, Josh, but I don't care that you were the best quarterback in your district or that you had your first Bud Light in sophomore year. I just don't.

2. The guy who is really a wanna-be Lil Wayne.

Blasting your crappy rap music or remixes through your open door at 10 A.M. on Tuesday night does not make you attractive, regardless of whether or not you do so shirtless.

3. The guy who is practicing for his frat days.

Picture this: a nineteen-year-old boy sporting an ugly, unbuttoned, Hawaiian shirt, backward baseball cap, khaki shorts, and peach fuzz. We've all met him, and some of us probably just made out with him last weekend.

4. The guy who never leaves his room or is always playing video games with his door open.

I've heard rumors of Tyler's existence, and I hear the sound of Call of Duty coming from the room during most nights of the week, so I'll assume he's alive- even though I'll only meet him twice before the year ends.

5. The slightly unattractive, athletic guy who somehow manages to get all the girls.

So, Kevin, you are somewhat attractive and you play baseball, but I can hear every individual girl you have in there every night. Even I have better standards than that.

6. The incredibly hot, polite guy three doors down who all the girls like, but who has a girl at home.

He occasionally wears glasses, his biceps are bigger than my dreams, he's 6'1", and he smiles when you pass him. You may have found out about his equally attractive girlfriend back home, but you're probably going to keep taking the long way back to your room just to pass him. Because, hey, she's three hours away, and you're rooms away. Pick up the hint, Jack.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week. For some students, it's their first time in the library all semester, maybe ever. Others have slaved away many nights under the fluorescent lights, and are slightly annoyed to find their study space being invaded by amateurs. While these newbies wander aimlessly around the first floor, hopelessly trying to find a table, the OGs of the library are already on the third floor long tables deep into their studies. Here is a few signs that you may live in the library, whether you'd like to admit it or not.
