For some, Valentine's Day is the day to appreciate the people (or that one special person) you love. For others, it's the day that you can eat a whole box of chocolates and watch a whole lot of Nicholas Sparks movies and not be judged. You'll encounter a lot of people on Valentine's Day, all of who have very different (and sometimes adamant) opinions on the day.

1. The hopeless romantic.

Whether or not he or she is in a relationship, Valentine's Day is this person's favorite holiday. It's a perfect excuse to indulge in some cheesy romantic movies and chocolate. (This person will post all about it on social media, of course.)

2. The anti-Valentine.

This person hates Valentine's Day. He or she thinks it's a fake holiday, invented by Hallmark for capitalistic purposes and refuses to partake in any activities involving hearts, the color red, and most importantly: love.

3. The couple that is REALLY over-the-top.

These two take Valentine's Day as an excuse to get super gooey in public. It's great to celebrate love, but maybe not in front of me on the escalator.

4. The Galentine's Day girls.

These girls may not be in a relationship, but they don't care - they've got each other!

5. The person in a new relationship.

This person just started seeing someone, and now will begin to panic about what to do. Should he or she make plans, pretend it's just another regular day or should they avoid the date all together?

6. The very single person.

This person complains about being single a lot of the time. But on this particular day when love is celebrated, you'll find this person crying along to The Notebook or complaining very loudly to her friends about her singleness.

7. The cupid.

The cupid is usually in a long-term relationship, and looking to get his or her friends on board the commitment train. He or she set up really awkward Valentine's double dates, or create really weird situations at work or school. The cupid may find someone you like - but more likely, he or she will find you someone who you can't look at straight in the eye for the rest of the year.

8. The person who takes Valentine's Day seriously. Very seriously.

This person has been planning for this day for a while. He or she always sends all his or her friends and loved ones cards, flowers, and other Valentine's goodies, spreading the Valentine's day love all around.

9. The person who is planning to party.

Valentine's Day? Love? More like an excuse to go out and party. It doesn't matter what day of the week it is, or whether he or she has school or work tomorrow. This person will be replacing dates with drinks and celebrating his or her singleness.

10. The person who forgot.

"Wait - it's Valentine's Day?!" is what you'll probably hear this person shout out loud at around noon, before he or she takes off running to text and buy flowers for his or her significant other in an attempt to cover up their slip-up.

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.
