Don't touch me.

10 Things You Know To Be True If You Hate Physical Contact

I do not like physical contact — never have, never will. If you're anything like me, the thought of long hugs or simply lightly brushing arms with a stranger makes you cringe.

1. You never give hugs for more than three seconds. Anything longer than that give you the heebie jeebies.

2. When you brush legs with someone sitting next to you, even if it is someone you know, you get super uncomfortable and try to move your body as far as you can away from that person as possible.

3. When someone puts their hand on your back when they are passing you or are trying to direct you somewhere, you internally freak out.

4. When you get married or live with a significant other, you will have to get a king sized bed simply because you hate having someone touch you or breathe on you while you sleep.

5. You like cuddling for like 15 minutes and after that it's time to move on.

6. You get anxiety in crowed public transportation.

7. Family gatherings are the worst because that means obnoxious amounts of hugging.

8. When someone is so close to you that you hear them breathing, that's too close.

9. The only person you allow to touch you for more than three seconds is your significant other.

10. When someone whispers directly into your ear and you feel their warm, moist breath entering your ear cavity, you wonder how you made it this far on Earth.

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.
