The Gym Is For Working Out And People Watching–Here Are The 8 Types Of People You See At The Gym

When I go to the gym, I'm forever looking around the gym. I'm not sure why I guess I just get bored running on the treadmill or using the elliptical during cardio days. I've noticed a few certain types of people that workout at my gym. Most people go, workout, and leave but some people have a real gym stereotype.

1. The Girl With Super Cute Workout Clothes

Usually there's a few girls that have super cute leggings or tops that just make me wonder where they find their cute clothes when I'm wearing black Nike shorts and a really old tournament t-shirt from freshman year of highschool. But they probably spend a fortune on their perfectly coordinated outfits and I'm not prepared to do that.

2. The Girl That Lifts With All The Buff Dudes

This girl is friends with almost everyone at the gym. Either she comes in with these guys or they see each other and just start lifting together. And she's no joke- she takes lifting seriously.

3. The Runner

This is the guy that has been running on the treadmill ever since you got to the gym an hour ago and he's still running.

4. The Guy Who Goes Around Talking To All The Cute Girls

Now this guy is always fairly attractive and built but you can just tell he's a tool by the cocky way he walks and goes up to at least 2 or 3 girls in the hour or hour and a half that you're there and each time you go to the gym they're usually different girls he's approaching… gotta stay away from that one, ladies.

5. The Major Lifter Guy

This guy always wears a cutoff t-shirt and walks to the water fountain in between every single set on the bench press.

6. Basic Gym Goer

Looks like the average person between seventeen and thirty years old that does their thing and leaves without bothering anyone.

7. The Person You See Everywhere

I feel like everyone has that one person that they see what feels like everywhere and then you just happen to see them at the gym.

8. The Cute Guy

This is the guy that you have a really big crush on but it's just a gym crush and there's no way you'd ever actually talk to him.

The transition into adulthood is never easy

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.

8 Easy Ways to Get Involved in College

It's easier than you think.

Kansas State University

"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.

College without friends is like peanut butter without jelly.

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.
