14 Times You And Your Roommates Were The 2016 Presidential Candidates
CNN

I personally am a very competitive person and work best when I'm challenged, so when I heard of the twitter account @OdysseyRejects, I made it a personal goal of mine to take one of their hilarious article ideas and turn it into something that is actually real. So, from a simple tweet in which they said this would be an absolutely ridiculous idea, this article was born. Who knew the presidential candidates were so relatable?

Disclaimer: This article was written prior to Kasich and Cruz dropping out of the race.

1. When you're interrupted in the middle of telling an "important" story about your day.


2. When you attempt to provide each-other with advice.


3. "Can you turn off the light before you go to bed?"


4. When you begin to argue about your political views


5. When they bring their new friend to the room and ask you not to say anything in character


6. When they ask you to kill the spider across the room


7. Trying to decide who the "Sober Buddy" of your friend group will be


8. When you try to motivate each other to do homework during the weekend.


9. When they set over five alarms just to get up in the morning.


10. When you finally accept them for all of their (wrong) opinions.


11. When you can finally afford to order pizza two nights in a row

12. Together, you always seem to mess up the simplest things.


13. When they ask you for hair advice


14. The hard task of avoiding saying "I told you so"

This listicle could be considered either the absolute worst or the absolute best thing I have ever done, but from it at least you have learned of the versatility that the candidate's speeches hold.

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.
