What Your Favorite Terrace Chair Color Says About You

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Wisconsin chapter.

I think we can all agree that this spring has been one of the weirdest yet. 70 degrees and sunny on Monday? Rainy and 40 degrees on Tuesday? Go home, Wisconsin. You’re drunk. In anticipation for days where it is actually warm enough to sit out on the Terrace, here’s what your favorite Terrace chair color says about you.

Green 

Wow, you’re like so down to earth and calm. You love trees and nature and trees and plants and Bernie Sanders. Your favorite hobbies include buying stickers for your Nalgene, doing yoga (but not at the SERF, that doesn’t even count as yoga), and giving people a death stare when they don’t recycle. You’re probably an Environmental Studies major or something like that. You pretend to love being vegan. You bring alcohol to parties in your S’well water bottle (hello, red solo cups are so wasteful). You are super calm all of the time, except when your roommate forgets to do her dishes again, then you go all Anger-from-Inside-Out, which you saw in theaters four times because it was the animated movie of our time. Overall, you’re just a chill person who puts their Birkenstocks on one foot at a time, just like anyone else.

Yellow

You are a super happy person who loves everything. You’re majoring in Elementary Education, probably, and you volunteer eight times a week. You always hold the door for people, even if they’re too far behind you for it to be socially acceptable. You’re always the first person to raise your hand in discussion, and you go out of your way to wave to tour groups. You show up at Freakfest sober, just to compliment people on their costumes. You never seem to get stressed—you just let it all go until one day when all of your repressed anger will come bubbling out and explode in everyone’s faces. But, for now, you’re all sunshine and rainbows! It takes you four hours to check out of Fresh because you always let people go in front of you, and you’re so positive during finals that literally no one will study with you. You were put in Kronshage your freshman year and didn’t complain once. You’re just a happy gal who may or may not self-implode at some point in the near future. 

Orange

You are a feisty one. Drink of choice: Fireball. You don’t take any sh*t from anyone. You’ve been known to argue with your TA for two hours to get back half a point on an exam. You’ve also been known to get belligerent when drunk. But, hey, you’ve only been kicked out of a few football games! You’re not afraid of anything, even the weight room at the SERF. You always leave the house in sunglasses, just in case anyone thought it would be a good idea to talk to you. No one dares to argue with you during group projects, and you always get into bars, even though your fake says you’re 35. You are kind of mean to all of your friends, but they hang out with you anyways because you look so lethal when you’re hungover that everyone lets you go to the front of the line at Mickie’s. Keep being a boss, but try not to get arrested.
