The 10 Most Annoying People To Sit Next To On an Airplane

"This is your pilot speaking. Will you all kindly STFU?"

Which one are you? 

1. Nervous Nellie: Nervous Nellie hates flying and believes her prayers and positive thoughts are the only reason your plane hasn't dropped out of the sky yet. She constantly asks you, "What's that buzzing noise?" and "Does it feel unusually bumpy?"  

2. The Crying Baby: This baby must be lamenting for all the sorrows in the damn WORLD. How else could she cry for three hours straight? You want to give the parents dirty looks and/or the middle finger but you control yourself because, come on, it's just a baby. 

3. The Frequent Urinator: Thanks to some eff-up by American Airlines, the Frequent Urinator got the window seat. Which means every time he has to get up to use the bathroom, you need to get up too. Hope you weren't too comfortable. 

4. The Armrest Hog: He doesn't understand that three people/three armrests = one per person. He'll use two armrests and stick his hairy elbows so far out that they jut into your ribs. 

5. The Overly Friendly Old Person: Grandma Ethel is cute but she won't stop asking you questions ("What are you studying, honey? Do you have a boyfriend? When are ya'll getting married?"), hindering your ability to focus on The Lego Movie. 

6. "I'm Sorry, I'm Hungry": He teeters down the aisle with a bag of Five Guys, a slice of Sbarro or a box of Bojangles. As he sits down, he gives you an apologetic look like, "I know you want to vomit because the plane now smells like sh*t, but I'm sorry, I'm hungry." 

7. Snorlax: You're going to assume he's narcoleptic because he spends the flight hunched over, snoring and drooling down the front of his shirt. Ew.

8. The Emotional Reader: Why is the 16-year-old-girl next to you sobbing? The Fault in Our Stars should be banned from airspace. 

9. i'mSpecial: For some reason, this guy thinks his iPhone's exempt from 'airplane mode.' You see him continuing to send texts as the plane takes off and think, "Oh great, now if we crash it's because of this guy." 

10. Flatulent Fred: Dear God, Fred, just hold it in.

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.
