This is the guy who can party all day every day of the week, you might actually think he is being paid to party. He is the party headmaster and always shows up to parties.

He is the life of the party if you are going out because he knows where you need to go and where you are guaranteed to have a great time. He also knows people and with him around, you can receive VIP treatment and passes because he probably knows the people that matter.

6. The moderate

This is the non-extremist guy who does things in moderation whether it is schoolwork, parties or anything. He is a Jack of all trades but a master of none.

He brings sanity to your life and can help you in life whether physically, mentally, emotionally, financially or even spiritually.

Ultimately, go to campus and make as many friends as possible because they will surely become important in your future.
