College goes back into effect during the worst time of the year, summer. Of course nobody wants to leave their pools and freedom when its 90 degrees out but then again, we don't actually have a choice. However, there are many more reasons than just lost of pool time and freedom when it comes to going back to school in the summer weather.

1. BO is real

You smell. I smell. My bookbag even smells. Walking fifteen minutes to class in 93 degrees weather beats my five dollar deodorant. EVERY. TIME.


2. Heat kills

You TRY to look presentable for class but as soon as you step outside that all goes down hill, fast. #Fail

3. Sweating more than a wh*re in church.

By the time you take that fifteen minute stroll to class, you can't tell whether you walked or swam. #IFeelDisgusting

4. I hope you brought those Nikes

Every girl's morning: "Oh my gosh this outfit is going to look so cute, what shoes? My choices are mom looking sneakers, workout sneakers, these sneakers are going to kill my outfit sneakers or sneakers that only give me two blisters instead of a thousand sneakers." #LaceThemUp

5. It just went from summer to winter real quick

I cannot thank my school enough for having air conditioning, honestly thank you. However, there is a difference between cooling me down and freezing me out. Seriously, I just went from sweating my a** off to now teeth chattering shivering. I've realized there will never be a happy medium. #ElsaChill

.......in 90 degree weather

6. Being Hot = Leave me alone

There is nothing worst than being extremely overheated yet have people be all up in your face. I'm sorry, but since it's so hot, stay out of the personal bubble because I'm already annoyed. #RBFIsInFullAffect

7. Trying vs School vs Heat

Honestly, I can't even tell anymore whether I'm tired from getting ready (but then instantly sweating it all away), tired from the heat and sun draining me or tired from school. I just know I'm already tired and in need of a nap.

8. Sunglasses are sent from God himself

Forgetting your sunglasses is actually worst than forgetting a pencil for class. If you're walking to class without them, just be prepared to be blinded for the journey. #IFeelBadForYou

9. Packing for class or packing for a vacation?

When you're packing everything up for the journey to class, it becomes questionable whether you're packing for that or vacation. Seriously, a must for the journey is, a water bottle, sunglasses, apartment keys, extra deodorant, sometimes an extra bra. But then for class you need the computer, notebooks, folders, pens, pencils, a sweater, thermal pants, a knitted hat, knee socks, instant hot coco. (The buildings here are another level of freezing...) In any case, just be prepared for a sweat soaked back.


10. Complain, Complain, Complain

If you're human, you should despise the heat because who enjoys being overheated, a sweated mess and miserable? From day one of school until the first day of fall and 50 degree weather, I and many others, will complain about this miserable heat. Teachers, peers, roommates, girlfriends, boyfriends, will only hear from here on out, "I'm hot", "It's so hot", "I can't take this heat anymore!" "Oh my god, make it stop", "Just leave me to die here on the burning blacktop", "You need a shower, you smell like a pile of sweaty clothes" and "Is there any day this week below 70 degrees?" #BePreparedForTheWhiners #IAmNotAshamedThatImAWhiner

......the heat of course, not the complaining.

In the end, we have to just deal with it. Stick it out guys, it'll be over soon.

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.
