10 Best Feelings You Have as a College Student

When I googled the definition for college, it came up as an education institution or establishment. But, if you're currently a college student, like myself, it is so much more than that. Exams, papers and mediocre dining food are just a few aspects that truly define your experience as a college student.

Even though I haven't been in college for nearly long enough to form a well thought out opinion of what college means for my future, I have had many experiences so far that really define what being a college student means.

When we come home for breaks or just to visit your family, I can almost guarantee that someone you know will ask you the infamous question, "How's college?" But, if you're like me, you'll get a text from your parents every few days asking how your day was and just a general "How's it going?" And, almost always, the highlight of your day doesn't revolve around the important things that most adults talk about on the daily basis. But, hey, it's not like we can help it. We have to live up to the title of "Broke College Student" somehow.

So, in honor of Finals Week coming up and the constant stress that we are all going through, here are the top 10 best feelings that every college student has.

1. Finishing a long-awaited assignment.

2. Waking up from a nap and feeling refreshed.

3. Seeing a dog on campus.

4. Getting a care package.

5. When you pass an exam you stayed up all night studying for.

6. When you finally see your parents after a few stressful weeks .

7. When you get let out early.

8. Getting the "Class is Cancelled" email .

9. Doing laundry by yourself and finally not having to wear the same sweatshirt you've been wearing all week .

10. Finding that you have more than $5 in your bank account.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

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.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

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.
