It really is a lifestyle.

10 Signs You Belong At The Beach
Danielle Pierce

1. Summer is your favorite season.

This is mainly because it’s the only season where it’s socially acceptable to spend every waking hour at the beach.

2. There is sand in almost every article of clothing you own.

It’s no longer a surprise to you that there are mini sandcastles in your shoes and sweatshirt pockets.

3. You're most comfortable in a swim suit.

Bikinis? Boardshorts? As long as you don’t have actual clothes on, you’re pretty content with life.

4. You own a beach cruiser that you ride to the beach.

What is a mountain bike, anyway? They can’t pedal through sand, which is a no-go for biking to the beach. Plus, you need the beach cruiser to give your friends rides on your handlebars.

5. You treasure your beach chair.

Your beach chair has backpack straps and a cooler pouch. There’s really nothing else you need in life.

6. Your spot is your spot.

Yes, you have a spot. If your friends and family are looking for you, they know exactly which beach block you are on and if you sit to the left or right of the lifeguard chair.

7. You can easily point out those visiting for the day.

Maybe it’s the fact they have on an elaborate “beach” outfit, or have brought a camping chair with them. Either way, you can spot them from a mile away.

8. You take naps on the beach.

You are guilty of waking up in the morning, going to the beach, and falling back asleep in the sun.

9. Salt water makes you happy.

There’s really nothing else like a dip in the ocean on a beautiful beach day.

10. You appreciate the value of a good beach day.

If you spent the day relaxing seaside, you know your day was pretty much perfect!

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.
