The Independent, United Kingdom Edition

We all have those moments when you've been laying in bed or sitting on the couch for just too long. It begins to feel like your body is molded into the position you're in and your butt is beginning to fall asleep. Or maybe you finding yourself eating when you aren't even hungry. No worries though, we're all are guilty of that one. Whatever it is that you do when you're bored, not to worry, here is a list of 10 things to do when you can't think of anything else to do.

1. Write letters to friends and family

Since when did mailing letters become a lost art? Everyone enjoys getting hand-written mail between all those bills and unfriendly doctor appointment reminders. The ultimate cure for boredom is doing something you know will make another person smile.

2. Give your pet a makeover

Give your pet a major grooming session. Give them a bath, brush their hair, scrub those teeth and paint those nails! They may not enjoy it the whole time, but it is extremely satisfying.

3. Become a fitness guru

It may not last, but get yourself motivated to work out. Download fitness apps or do timed workouts while jamming to you're favorite motivational playlist. You may not decide to do it again the next day, but a little exercise never hurt anyone.

4. People watch

This is perhaps the creepiest pastime, but a personal favorite. Go observe others at a local coffee shop or park. Bring your laptop or a good book, and no one will ever know you're eavesdropping.

5. Make a new food

Go to the grocery store and buy a bunch of ingredients that could possibly go well together. Invite some friends over, mix them up, and taste your concoction.

6. Paint things with nail polish

This may sound odd, but glamorizing your phone case or keys with some glittery nail polish is always fun to do.

7. Take a really good selfie

Glam yourself up; make-up, hair, the whole thing...just for a selfie. There's no shame in taking a really nice looking selfie. Plus, you'll have a great new Instagram photo!

8. Color coordinate your closet

Organize your closet by color. This way, you can easily pick out items of clothing that go with one another!

9. Binge watch a new show

This one is for those who haven't been on the couch all day. Become obsessed with a new show and you won't have to worry about boredom for another second.

10. Make a visualization board

Cut out pictures, phrases, and articles you like from magazines and put them all together to create a creative masterpiece that will inspire you!

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.
