College brings a whole lot of new experiences, new lessons and new people. But it seems that no matter what school you go to, there are same characters on every campus. The frat house groupie, the sensitive all American, and The Cool Girl.

When walking around campus, you see her. She’s rocking the casual look like it’s nobody’s business. And she’s doing it well. Her bootcut jeans are accompanied by a perfectly worn-in t-shirt layered under a zip up hoodie. She’s wearing black Converse or a pair of well-worn sneakers, the laces tight enough to keep them on, but loose enough to allow her to slip in and out of them easily.

You don’t know her, but you want to.

This is one co-ed who has got it together. She is the kind of girl who is naturally pretty, has a killer body and is completely oblivious to it. She is friendly, kind, and her easygoing, low maintenance attitude makes it easy to get along with her. Even her professors are drawn to her, always chatting with her before class and helping her after.

I like to know that my “friends” aren’t actually forty-year-old men with bad hygiene and a snaggle tooth who buy Hot Pockets in bulk and spend Saturday nights with Jenna Jameson on high res.

Either way though, I was slightly amused to learn that Tom, currently a man with a reported 194,923,131 amigos, is apparently not very friendly! The 31-year-old Libra was spotted by TMZ paps outside of an X-Games pre-party, but was in no mood to play. Read More »
