11 Reasons Why Having A Pet Fish Is The Best Thing Ever

http://www.jantaneeaquarium.com/

I'd like you to meet my pet fish, Louie.

He likes his purple tree, his flake food and his gem stone rocks. He's pretty awesome and has brought some extra happiness to my life ever since I brought him home.

If you're already a fish owner, you know just how awesome having a fish can be. And if you're not, the following eleven reasons will surely inspire you to get one!

1. Your fish will always keep you company.

What's better than coming home after a long day to your little fish swimming effortlessly around it's bowl.

2. Your fish will teach you how to be a responsible pet owner.

Taking the time to feed your fish, clean it's bowl and give it attention will make you a good pet owner and teach you responsibility.

3. Your fish will always be the life of the party.

Not only will you be filled with joy whenever your fish moves it's little fins but so will your guests. They will soon be making regular visits to visit your fish. It will swim it's way into their hearts.

4. You can deck out your fishes bowl or tank.

You can add cool plants, statues, rocks of many colors, gem stones and little even lights to give it a little ambiance and to make your fishes home as awesome and comfortable as possible.

5. You can give your fish a super cool name.

Like Todd or Mildred.

6. Your fish will quickly become a part of the family.

Soon your fish will have your entire family taking care of it and loving it.

7. You will inspire your friends to get a fish of their own.

Soon you and your friends will have play dates with your fish children.

8. Your fish will always be cool, calm and collected.

What's better than having a pet that's super chill? Fish don't ask for much. They are simple creatures.

9. Your fish will have a great personality.

They will never make a fuss or make a mess (at least not as much of a mess as other pets). They are always peaceful.

10. Your fish will always cheer you up.

Your fish will know just what to do when you're not feeling well. They know when to bring on the charm to make you smile.

11. Your fish will love you unconditionally.

They will need you as much as you need them. The more you pay attention to them and take care of them the happier and healthier they will be.

25 Beatles Lyrics: Your Go-To Guide for Every Situation

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

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.

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.

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

And in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make

The sun is up, the sky is blue, it's beautiful and so are you

Love is old, love is new, love is all, love is you

There's nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be

Life is very short, and there's no time for fussing and fighting, my friend

He say, "I know you, you know me", One thing I can tell you is you got to be free

Oh please, say to me, You'll let me be your man. And please say to me, You'll let me hold your hand

It was twenty years ago today, Sgt. Pepper taught the band to play. They've been going in and out of style, but they're guaranteed to raise a smile

Living is easy with eyes closed, misunderstanding all you see

Can you hear me? When it rains and shine, it's just a state of mind

Little darling, it's been long cold lonely winter. Little darling, it feels like years since it' s been here. Here comes the sun, Here comes the sun, and I say it's alright

We danced through the night and we held each other tight, and before too long I fell in love with her. Now, I'll never dance with another when I saw her standing there

I love you, I love you, I love you, that's all I want to say

You say you want a revolution. Well you know, we all want to change the world

All the lonely people, where do they all come from. All the lonely people, where do they all belong

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends

Hey Jude, don't make it bad. Take a sad song and make it better

Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away. Now it looks as though they're here to stay. Oh, I believe in yesterday

And when the brokenhearted people, living in the world agree, there will be an answer, let it be.

And anytime you feel the pain, Hey Jude, refrain. Don't carry the world upon your shoulders

I'll give you all I got to give if you say you'll love me too. I may not have a lot to give but what I got I'll give to you. I don't care too much for money. Money can't buy me love

All you need is love, love is all you need

Whisper words of wisdom, let it be

Blackbird singing in the dead of night, Take these broken wings and learn to fly. All your life, You were only waiting for this moment to arise

Though I know I'll never lose affection, for people and things that went before. I know I'll often stop and think about them. In my life, I love you more

Obviously the best superpower.

There have been many lessons learned.

1. The importance of traditions.

2. How to be thankful for family and friends.

3. How to give back.

4. What the word "community" really means.

5. That it isn't about the destination, but the journey.

6. The consequences of making bad choices.

7. To trust people, until you have a reason not to.

8. To be welcoming and accepting of everyone.

9. How to be my own, individual person.

10. How to work for what I want.

11. How to be great at giving directions.

12. How to be humble.

13. To be well-rounded.

14. How to be great at conflict resolution.

15. The beauty of getting outside and exploring.

16. To be prepared for anything.

17. That you don't always have to do it alone.

18. How to be creative.

19. To brush off gossip.

I have never been so thankful to know you.

Dealing with the inevitable realities of college life.
