The cold *always* bothered me anyway.

After freezing our asses off for the last six months, it's finally time to soak in those sun rays and feel the warmth we've been craving.

But while you're all stripping down and sleeping next to air conditioners to stay cool, other unfortunate souls remain in a perpetual state of cold. It doesn't matter if it's 90 degrees with 100% humidity outside--the chill follows you everywhere. So if you're like me, here are 15 signs that you're the girl who's always cold...even in the heat of summer.

1. The AC must be on at least 73 for you to be comfortable in your own house.

Unfortunately, most people disagree with you and turn it down to at least 65 instead, leaving you with chattering teeth and a vendetta against your own failing homeostasis.

2. So when you're not outside, you can be found chilling in sweatpants, a sweatshirt, and a blanket.

And you don't sweat at all because it literally feels like you live in a freakin' igloo.

3. You NEVER leave the house without a sweater.

Call me Grandma, but you never know when the chill could strike. Yeah, it may be 85 degrees and sunny outside, but when that summer breeze hits, I'll happily slip into my sweater and be nice and cozy.

4. In fact, you can go outside wearing a sweatshirt and be unaffected by the heat.

People look at you and start sweating, questioning how you could possibly be wearing so many layers in this heat, but you're totally cool as a cucumber...yet warm, if you know what I mean.

5. Your hands and feet are always ice cold...

...no matter the temperature outside. Curse our poor circulation.

6. As a result, you've mastered the art of the blanket burrito...

Wrap, tuck, and roll. Catch us sporting this hot look all year long.

7. ...and your sock drawer is filled with endless amounts of fuzzy socks.

Gotta keep those toes toasty.

8. You've seriously considered sporting socks and sandals.

A very practical look for us cold feet gals, if you think about it.

9. Going to the grocery store is your worst nightmare.

Not only is the AC cranking, but you feel yourself morphing into a popsicle in the middle of the frozen section. On the days you bring your sweater, you manage to survive. But on the days when you're feeling brave and leave the sweater at home, you accept your inevitable death by freezing as your brother takes too long to decide which ice cream he wants.

10. You always sport a nice set of goosebumps.

It's like you were born with them.

11. Beach days are great...until there's no sun.

Beaches are notorious for their never-ending gusts of wind, and when combined with no sun and being half naked, it makes for a chilly afternoon spent wrapped in a towel.

12. You don't understand how anyone can go night swimming.

I mean, unless you're swimming in a hot tub, aren't you people freezing?? *shivers uncontrollably at the thought*

13. You're one of the only people who prefers to exercise outside during the summer.

While everyone finds the nearest air-conditioned gym to work out in, you hit the great outdoors and embrace the heat.

14. Whenever you complain about how cold it is, people respond in one of three ways:

They say, "It's not even cold!" or "How are you cold??"

Or they just mimic you.

i'Ts sO CoLd iN HerE!

15. You can't wait for winter when the rest of the world deems it acceptable for being cold all the time.


Winter is only about six months away, a time where us cold folks can finally crank the heat and be comfortable. Until then, stay warm.

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?"

Brooke Davis

"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:
