10 Reasons You May Be An Over Thinker, And You're Probably Overthinking These Reasons, Too
Aspen Graham

Have you ever been in a situation where a very drastic thing has happened to you? Maybe that guy you're crushing on asked you for a pencil or maybe your BFF didn't offer you a sip of her Mocha Frappuccino Latte with almond milk and two pumps of caramel.

If any of these things have happened to you, people have probably told you to just stop overthinking it after you confide in them.

Below are 10 ways you may actually be an over thinker.

1. You'll contemplate a single text for hours.

Your crush sends you a vague "Hey" and your mind goes into overdrive. "He still has my number? Does he need help with homework? Is he just bored?" The world may never know.

2. You can't sit in a public place without feeling every eye on you.

Eyes, eyes, they're everywhere!

3. When typing anything you'll rewrite it 8 times.

4. ....and then back out of sending it.

5. Procrastination is your middle name.

You overthink a project for so long that life becomes meaningless and your bed is the only thing that makes sense.

6. Any relationship feels like a maze...specifically the one in The Shining.

Do they actually love you? Is this a Con into kidnapping you and selling you for two goats and bucket of lard? Maybe your whole life is really a dream and you'll wake up from it if you think about it hard enough.

7. You never make any executive group decisions and have to end up eating gluten-free, vegan, eggplant pizza.

8. Feelings are like feral cats...very, very bad.

You'll swat them away at the first sign of danger. Every time.

9. You have the confidence level of a barnacle.

There's a reason barnacles hide on the underbellies of whales.

10. When you do make up your mind, nobody listens.

This is the price you pay for #7. Eggplant pizza, my friend.

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter

It's not all morning coffees and singing along to the radio.

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter
morethanwheels

I've been in college for four years now. I spent half my time as a commuter and half as a resident so I've experienced both sides of the housing spectrum. One thing I've learned comparing the two is that my struggles as a commuter far outweigh anything I went through while living on campus. Commuters have to deal with the problems school brings along with a slew of other issues; I've filled up my gas tank in the worst kind of weather conditions and napped in random places in public more times than I'm proud to say of. This is a list of some of the most challenging aspects of being a commuter.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!
