8 People You Will Meet At A College Bar No Matter Where You Go To School

Chances are you have been one of these people while at the bar.

If you go to a college with a "bar scene", you will easily be able to point out each of these types of people while at the bars -- or you just might be that person. Test it for yourself, the next time you hit the bars, try and spot these 8 types of people:

1.  The freshman who you are shocked even got in 

I mean not only did the height and baby face give it away that they are totally underage, but the outfit gets me every time. How'd he get past the bouncer with Nike socks and Sperry's on?

2. The birthday girl 

She's wearing a tiara or sash and drinking free drinks – if you couldn't tell, it is her birthday.

3. Brad or Chad

You know the guy I am talking about – he is telling anyone who will listen about the epic pre-game he threw at his house and is probably talking to freshman girls.

4. The rowdy girl 

She is having just as much fun as the birthday girl, but without the tiara and sash – she's loud, she's dancing, and she's yelling "shots!"

5. The guy with the open tab 

Orders anyone he meets a drink and puts it on his tab. Whether he is trying to impress a girl or his friends, he will not be impressed when he wakes up tomorrow and looks at his bank account.

6. The really, really drunk girl 

This girl, you probably met in the bathroom or at the bar ordering more shots. She can't walk straight and her slightly-less-drunk friends are trying to help her. She'll say "I am not even drunk" as she stumbles on to the dance floor.

7. The kid who knows the bouncer 

Forget being ID'd – this kid comes to the bar so often he skips the line and fist pumps the bouncer on the way in.

8. The mom

Do you need a hair-band? Band-aid? Water? This girl has got you covered. She can be found struggling to keep her really, really drunk friend from doing something stupid.

The Great Christmas Movie Debate

"A Christmas Story" is the star on top of the tree.

The Great Christmas Movie Debate

One staple of the Christmas season is sitting around the television watching a Christmas movie with family and friends. But of the seemingly hundreds of movies, which one is the star on the tree? Some share stories of Santa to children ("Santa Claus Is Coming to Town"), others want to spread the Christmas joy to adults ("It's a Wonderful Life"), and a select few are made to get laughs ("Elf"). All good movies, but merely ornaments on the Christmas tree of the best movies. What tops the tree is a movie that bridges the gap between these three movies, and makes it a great watch for anyone who chooses to watch it. Enter the timeless Christmas classic, "A Christmas Story." Created in 1983, this movie holds the tradition of capturing both young and old eyes for 24 straight hours on its Christmas Day marathon. It gets the most coverage out of all holiday movies, but the sheer amount of times it's on television does not make it the greatest. Why is it,
then? A Christmas Story does not try to tell the tale of a Christmas miracle or use Christmas magic to move the story. What it does do though is tell the real story of Christmas. It is relatable and brings out the unmatched excitement of children on Christmas in everyone who watches. Every one becomes a child again when they watch "A Christmas Story."

After talking to a few of my friends at college, I realized that a lot of them don't really have "Christmas traditions" in their family, and I want to help change that. Here's a list of Christmas traditions that my family does, and anyone can incorporate into their family as well!

It’s here; that time of year when college students turn into preschoolers again. We cry for our mothers, eat everything in sight, and whine when we don’t get our way.
