Stuff About Yours Truly

This Is Real, This Is Me
Jersey Evening Post

Usually, people start off writing an introduction to themselves as "Hi, I'm (blank) and I am (blank) years old. I am majoring in (blah blah blah) and my hobbies are (even more blah blah blah)." Not this time though. I will be writing about myself differently so I don't bore you all with the stereotypical "Hi my name is..." statements. Instead, I will tell about myself things that I feel are necessary to know about who I am as a person.

One of the first things I say to people when I meet them is "Sorry" and "Ahhhh" because I'm usually too nervous to say anything else in a comprehensible language. And If you see me with my headphones in, I'm usually not listening to music. I'm just trying to concentrate. Most of my friends and I talk through Snapchat so I'm often seen in public places making faces at no one in hopes no one sees (even though I know everyone probably saw). I claim to eat healthy, but in reality I eat more pasta and ice cream than anyone else I know. Being an ex-wanna-be-scene girl (shudder), I really like pop/punk/rock music of any kind. Jellyfish are the most beautiful creatures in the world to me aesthetically, but I also believe dogs have the most beautiful souls in the world. The Rogue Valley has been my home since as long as I can remember and Ashland is by far my favorite city in the world (so far). I also would like to add I have a dry sense of humor and the amounts of sarcasm I sprinkle on to everything are a little too heavy for some, so proceed with caution.

As I write more articles, I will hopefully be able to convey who I am in others ways. I'm very excited to be an odysey writer and couldn't be happier than where I am now at SOU doing what I love.

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.
