The 10 Types Of College Students Found On Valentine's Day
Holly Barnett

When it comes to Valentine's Day there are lots of chocolates, disappointed women, many opinions, and most importantly, free wings at Hooters. On this day of love (or self-wallowing pity), everyone reflects on their love life. College students reevaluate all those late night texts they've been sending on the search for love and reassure themselves they don't need love to feel complete, just a good time. College couples walk around superior to all the poor, lowly single folks laughing at their despair. February 14 is always a lovely day on campus. So here are the 10 types of college students you meet on Valentine's Day.

1. The Single Girl

Every single girl on Valentine's Day gets lowkey depressed and curls up on her bed and watches "The Notebook" crying because Jake didn't text her back. They act like they don't care, but they do. This girl will be found on the couch eating chocolate or out on the town on the desperate search for a guy in a jersey.

2. The Single Guy

Ah, the single guy, a very abundant species that fills bars and college campuses all across the world. Valentine's Day is their favorite time to prey on the single and lonely girls who just want a nice dinner and some flowers. Is romance that hard? Does a "you up" text count as romance? Brittany probably thinks so. These boys will be found sending snaps to girls they clearly saw at the bar saying "did I see you tonight?"

3. The Recently Dumped Girl

The recently dumped girl just got broken up with her boyfriend because he realized he "wasn't ready for commitment" and he just doesn't want to "lead you on." But in reality, he probably doesn't have enough money to buy you a gift and wants to go to the bar on V-Day. These girls will be found crying at home listening to sad music and texting their ex-boyfriend.

4. The Cynic

"Valentine's Day is just a corporate holiday so businesses can make money off of people." We have all heard this one right? Those people who refuse to let anyone be happy because they themselves are unhappy. Another good one, "Valentine's Day is just an excuse to make single women upset because they aren't married yet." Ok, Madison, how much caffeine is in venti chocolate caramel vanilla iced latte with no ice Starbucks right now? The cynics form these opinions with good intentions, but then those intentions turn into convincing the whole human race Valentine's Day is dumb. A pretty large job. The cynics will be found texting their friends telling them not to worry about love because all they need in life is themselves.

5. The Party People

The party people don't care if you are single and ready to mingle or basically married with 2.5 kids. They just want to have a good time. Any holiday is an excuse to get all your friends together and just live it up. Cookies and champagne provided. The party people will be found on top on the table telling everyone they love them.

6. The February 15th Person

The February 15th person doesn't care about Valentine's Day. They care about all the Valentine's Day candy that will go on sale the next day. You will find the February 15th people in a sugar coma on the 16th.

7. The Honeymooners

The honeymooners are the couple who is experiencing their first Valentine's Day together. They are sweet, cuddly, are making out in the middle of the room, and you are sick to your stomach but happy for them. The honeymooners will be found at dinner, then a movie, then a romantic walk, then... well you know where.

8. The Girlfriend

The girlfriend can show her form in many ways. While they may seem superior, they are the weakest. The girlfriend worries about what her boyfriend is planning, what he is getting her, if he made the reservation, if he will even remember. The girlfriend is stress until the day of. If her boyfriend did it right she's on top of the world. If he did it wrong, get the ice cream ready. The girlfriend will be found complaining to her single friends all day.

9. The Boyfriend

The boyfriend doesn't understand flowers or why he can't wear a t-shirt to dinner. He is scared of his girlfriend because he knows if he messes up he is getting yelled at. Wish him luck. The boyfriend can be found walking aimlessly around Victoria's Secret and getting excited because red lace is his favorite.

10. The College Student


Happy Valentine's Day! Which one are you?

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2024, and I still feel like yesterday was summer. Now comes the merriest time of the year, the Christmas season.

Everyone has been waiting for this time of year since mid-October (which is way too early, in my opinion) or before. It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. A lot of times when I ask friends and family what they want, I get a lot of "I don't know" or "I don't care."

mu bucket list

I was sitting at my cubicle, now that I am an adult, looking at the rain pouring down on the windowsill, bumming on life, wishing for the rain to just stop for a full day.

There are moments where we count down the hours until work is over and how many more days till the weekend, and this many weeks until something exciting. Or something like that? Well, I was bumming because my next day off from work is not until Memorial Day weekend, which is not until the end of May. And since this is my first year out of college being a “real person,” I am totally missing the winter, spring and summer breaks. I am sure all of us have felt this way even if just for a hot minute…
