Judging a Cornell Student By Its Cover

Well, the weekend is upon us. And I cannot express how happy I am. I can finally sit back and relax. Until I have to write my two essays for Monday.

Yesterday, in spite of the freezing cold, I spent about an hour outside people watching. And I realized something:

You can always tell
Where someone's from based on their
Clothing in winter.


Here's a quick guide:

Hoodie + jeans = Northeast
Jacket + jeans = Midwest
Coat + jeans = South, or well-prepared person
Hoodie + jeans + shivering = Freshman from the South
Shorts + anything = crazy, or from the arctic
No pants (tights) + anything = sorority girl
Greek letters on hoodie = Frat boy, or someone actually from Greece.
Person in a Harvard shirt = "I applied early to Harvard, assumed I was getting in, was rejected, and had to settle with Cornell"
Person with [insert state school here] shirt = "My sibling is going to this school. I'm going to Cornell to show that I'm better than him/her"

This was a rather barren and sad post. I will be posting later about everybody's favorite trend: "That Time in the Evening When it Starts to Get Dark." Also known as "Twilight."

  1. Person in really heavy winter coat + scarf + hat + gloves + ski goggles + still shivering = from California, Florida, or Hawaii
