10 Signs You're A Communications Major
Know Your Memes

1). All of your finals are essays.

Sure, your friends might be cramming for exams, but you're over here frantically writing a 10 page paper that was assigned Wednesday and due Friday of the same week. Urgghh.


2). Group video projects don't actually suck.

Finally, a group of people that can actually speak in front of a camera and have some kind of creative talent!


3). Neither do peer reviews.

Gone are the days in high school where the kid that is into math reviews your paper. He may be good with math, but if he didn't know the difference between accept and except in his own essay you can't count on his review of your paper being any good.


4). You can't enjoy a good commercial anymore.

I see your persuasive tactics Doritos!!


5). Your friends come to you for essay revisions.

You might as well work as an editor at this point.



6). No one is exactly sure what you're planning to do for the rest of your life.

So do you wanna be a journalist? An editor? An author? A speechwriter? A broadcaster? A news anchor? A blogger? The list goes on for miles.



7). At least one of your friends is addicted to puns.

And all of them are tearable.



8). You can't persuade your Profs to do anything.

Why? Because you learned all of the persuasive appeals you're about to use in their class.


9). You think it's a joke when you get an essay assignment from a core class.

Psh, 6 pages are nothing compared to what I've done!



10). You have found friends that share a common hatred for grammatically incorrect billboards.

You're means YOU ARE. Your means YOUR.

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.
