We get it. We will never understand having to wake up early to straighten our hair, or to not be able to brush our hair, or have to put product in our hair to maintain it. But having naturally straight hair isn't always as amazing as it seems.

1. Not being able to curl our hair

Whenever I curl my hair, it becomes straight again within an hour. No matter how much hairspray I put in it. Spending two hours on your hair just for it to be ruined in ten minutes is heart breaking

2. Messy buns are not simple

I've watched people with curly hair twist their hair, throw it in a bun, and have it stay on their head the entire day. When I try to do a messy bun, I need 20 bobby pins, 4 clips, and an hour to make it look presentable.

3. Lack of volume

Sometimes we get envious when we see all of these girls with beautiful voluminous curls, and we can't get our hair to get any volume at all

4. Getting told we're lucky

Every time we get asked if our hair is naturally straight, we get told we're lucky. But, we're not as lucky as you may think. Straight hair gets boring after a while.

5. Not being able to put accessories in your hair

Whenever I try to put a hair accessory in my hair, it ends up either falling out or not looking good.

6. The smell of your burnt hair after you try to curl it

When you attempt to curl your hair, and all you smell is your burnt hair along with your hopes and dreams. The smell doesn't go away until you've washed your hair like 4 times.

7. Braiding your hair just doesn't happen

You spend a half an hour trying to get the perfect braid, and a few hours later when you look in the mirror, it's all loose and constantly coming out of the hair tie.

8. All the hair spray you have to use

You literally have to use an ungodly ammount of hairspray if you want your hair to do literally anything besides hang down.

9. Updo hair bumps

When you watch your curly haired friends put their hair up with no problems, and you try only to find these awful bumps on top of your head that just wont go away.

10. When you take school photos only to find strands of your hair sticking out

There's nothing worse than thinking you took a great picture only to find that a whole section of your hair was sticking out the entire time.

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.
