14 Benefits Of Having A Baby-Face
cbssports.com

If you've ever been mistaken for a pre-teen or had to explain to someone you are in fact an adult, you might have a baby-face. You often focus on the downsides of looking young, but here are some awesome benefits:

1. It’s a good conversation starter.

“Wait, you’re telling me you’re a junior in college not high school?”

2. You could order off the under-12 kids menu until you were 16.

Half-priced grilled cheese all day long.

3. You can get free drinks at parties by declaring yourself a prospective student.

It’s not hard for you to pass as a senior in high school and you plan to take advantage of it.

4. You get ID'd at R-rated movies.

Not sure if this is a benefit, but you get to whip out your ID and embarrass the teenage ticket-taker.

5. People underestimate you.

You always exceed expectations because people think you're less experienced.

6. People frequently refer to you as “adorable”.

You know you secretly love it.

7. Bouncers are shocked when you hand them a real ID.

*Flips hair* “That's right, sir, now let me in.”

8. You’re in good company with tons of baby-faced celebrities.

Work that baby-face just like Joseph Gordon-Levitt.

9. You always surprise people.

Something about looking younger throws people off, but they're pleasantly surprised when they see what you're capable of.

10. You get seated at the kids’ table at family events even though you’re technically an adult.

This means no answering questions about your future or your relationship status over dinner. Score.

11. People aren’t intimidated by you.

Your baby-face makes you easily approachable in any setting.

12. For boys, growing a beard instantly ages you 10 years.

Who doesn't love some good facial hair?

13. For girls, you've become pros at doing make-up from trying to look older.

That winged eye-liner is on point.

14. When you're 40 you'll look 25.

Sweet revenge to everyone who ever messed with you for looking young.

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.
