So, the thing about most of the annoying people on campus is that, most of the time, you can get away from them. Either you pass the class and move on, you simply ignore their sermons, or they generally exit your life just as quickly as they came.
Not all of them, though. Some annoying campus dwellers will be there. Always. Forever. And never go away.
Who am I talking about? Why, the Frat House Groupie, of course!
Now, there are many girls who may seem to fall into this category that should not. These are:
1) Members of a sister sorority. It’s super common to see certain fraternities pairing up with certain sororities on campus; their bylaws/campus rules/international standards of fraternizing require that they have to make nice with the girlies and co-host events together. Whatev. Point is, if you’re hanging at the house one Friday night because they’re having an awesome 70s themed costume party and you see the typical group of sorority girls, those are the least of your worries.
2) Girlfriends or ex girlfriends of frat boys: These girls are expected to be there. After all, they aren’t just trolling the crowd looking for booty; this is their man’s house. Or their ex man. And they are still friends with all the boys. Read: they know people.

President Obama re-took his Presidential Oath of Office in the White House yesterday, after questions arose concerning the validity of his presidency when the U.S. Chief Justice accidentally mixed up the words when administering the oath during Tuesday’s ceremony. This got me thinking about some things I’ve screwed up and wish I could do over again, too.
1. My fashion & beauty choices of the 90′s - Shoulder pads? Leggings tucked into scrunched-up socks? Platform sneakers? I don’t know about you guys, but whenever I look at pictures from my childhood I can’t help but cringe at what I’m wearing and wonder how my parents let me walk out of the house looking that ridiculous. If could only go back now and tell my 11-year-old self to just put down the printed bike shorts…
2. Trying to wax my own legs – My girlfriends and I were so excited to try out the at-home waxing kit we bought at the drugstore, but it didn’t work out how we’d planned. Oh how we wish we could take back that trip to CVS and the large welts on our legs from the too-hot wax. Read More »
