10 Things Female Sports Fanatics Know All Too Well

Joey Meredith

Being the sports fanatic in the friend group is not always easy, but it is by far the best!!

1. Guys ALWAYS doubt your knowledge of sports until they know you.

"Oh, really? You're an Alabama fan? Who even was the coach before Saban?"

2. "Do you only keep up to impress the guys?"

"Excuse me, what? You can't actually be serious right now!" These type of accusations will test your patience for sure.

3. You get a strange look the first time you get an ESPN score alert

*da-da-da---da-da-da* "Whose phone was that?"

4. You aren't super comfortable watching your team play around new people

You have a tendency to get TOO into the game, much like the boys....

5. You "Get up for Gameday"

And you probably have wondered why you haven't been chosen as a guest picker because you're obviously better than Katy Perry....

6. The boys will come to you for score updates

*looks conflicted* "uh, what's the score of the ___ vs ___ game?"

7. You know how to relay game updates informatively

Because most people want the score, quarter/inning, and outs/ time left--- not just "we're winning!:)"

8. Superstition is a real thing

If you were outside when we were winning and you decide to come in and we start losing, guess what? Back outside you go.....

9. Rain doesn't stop you from getting your "game" on

That freezing cold rain didn't stop us from cheering on our Trojans!

10. Best of all, you know all the classic warm-up/ game day/ walkout songs

Whether it's "Thunderstruck" by ACDC, "Welcome to the Jungle" by Guns N' Roses, or even "Mr. Brightside" by The Killers, you know them all and can create the perfect tailgate playlist!!

Keep on sporting, girl!

5 Ways To Bring Positivity Into Your Life When All You Want To Do Is Drown In Self-Pity

The first two weeks of classes have come to an end and they have been anything BUT easy. It seems like life has been serving up more bad than good and in all honesty, the only thing you want to do is crawl under your covers and hide from the rest of the world.

Although this seems like the best solution, it is also the easy way out. Take it from the girl who took basically a whole week off from her life because she just could not handle everything that was being thrown at her. This caused her to feel extremely lonely and even more stressed out for being behind in classes that JUST began.

11 Things We Learned From Brooke Davis

"What's more important? What we become or how we become it?"

St. Thomas Aquinas College

"She was fiercely independent, Brooke Davis. Brilliant, and beautiful, and brave. In two years she had grown more than anyone I had ever known. Brooke Davis is going to change the world someday, and I'm not sure she even knows it." - Lucas Scott, An Unkindness of Ravens

Brooke Davis of the hit show One Tree Hill was the it girl - she had it all, or so we thought. She started out as a stuck-up, shallow, spoiled, head cheerleader who didn't have her life together. She slept around a lot and loved to party - sounds like your typical high school teenager right? Wrong. B. Davis had so much more to offer. Caring, loyal, and outspoken, she has taught us some valuable lessons throughout the 9 seasons that OTH was on the air:

For some of us, coming to college was the first time we ever had to share a room. It was a big change, but a fun one. As you meet more and more people over the course of your college career, it seems to be a pattern that you will at some point have that one friend that doesn't live with you, but acts like they do. We call those people, "Honorary Roommates" and here are 11 signs you have one in your life.
