10 Awesome Things That Happened in 2016
Best FM

Most people say that 2016 was terrible—and I don’t think they are entirely wrong, as there were some terrible parts—but there were also so many things to celebrate!

Here are just 10 of the really awesome things that happened this year:

1. Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds finally showed their adorable children off to the public, and it was cute as can be.


2. Leo finally won an Oscar!


3. More puppies!!!


4. Instagram changed its logo (which I honestly think is for the good of everyone—its much prettier now).


5. There were so many hilarious memes made to make fun of Donald Trump’s hair.



6. Netflix somehow made us all love it even more than we did by giving us a Gilmore Girls revival.


7. Miley Cyrus and Liam Hemsworth gave us all a little bit of hope by getting back together after calling off their engagement.



8. James Corden’s carpool karaoke went viral and became one of the greatest things to ever grace this world (in my humble opinion).


9. Ellen DeGeneres took Michelle Obama shopping at CVS…and it was hilarious.


10. The Warriors blew a 3-1 lead and the CAVS WON THE CHAMPIONSHIP!!!!



Thank you, 2016! You were alright (especially for the city of Cleveland ((unless you're the Cleveland Browns...sorry)). Go CLE!!!)

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
