Airplanes: if travelling wasn't stressful enough, come sit in a hangar of strangers who will determine the enjoyment of your trip!

1. Where is my seat going to be?

Do I have an aisle? Darn. Window. No thanks, no drinks for me. Yes, I’m thirsty, but no, I’d rather not crawl over all of these people.

2. Safety first.

Nah, I don’t need to listen to the safety demonstration, I’ve heard it all before, they’re all the same.

3. Wait... was that turbulence?

I should probably write my will. What’s the brace position again?

4. After finally getting the courage to use the bathroom:

It is tiny in here. What if I get stuck? Please let nobody be outside when I’m finished. Please. I’m not ready for that kind of human interaction.

5.Do I really have to climb over these people again?

Hi. Yes, I’m back. Sorry, sorry. I’m sorry. Excuse me.

6. After appreciating the joys of modern technology:

Technology has come so far. Humans are flying, we have internet capabilities beyond even imagination not so long ago. We have evolved so far.

7. Are planes really a safe option?

Humans were not born with wings, maybe we were not born to fly. Why do we do it anyways? What if something was to happen?

8.While enjoying the view:

Wow. We are so insignificant in the scheme of life. Is that a boat? How did it even get all the way out there? Are they okay?

9. After coming to a crushing realization:

Maybe I should get out more.

10. While looking out the window again:

I’m going to act on that. I’m going to see the world. Ooh, snacks.

11. When coming up with ways to entertain yourself:

I’ll just play words with friend- oh wait. I have no internet. That’s okay. I’ll just browse some new music- oh wait. No. Okay. (Top tip- bring a book.)

12. Trying to get comfortable is impossible.

I just can’t get comfortable. Can I just lay on this stranger’s lap? No, that’s weird. Can I just lean on his shoulder? Ew, wait, never mind.

13. When the journey is never ending:

Are we there yet?

14. When you question your form of travel:

Is there supposed to be this much turbulence? Was that thunder or the engine? When will I be on the ground?

15. When you finally get to solid ground:

Walk as naturally as possible.

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.
