For as long as I can remember, I've always had a tomboy mindset. I went through the girly phase in high school, because I thought that was what I was supposed to do. But now, I embrace my tomboy and don't really care about "being a girl." Whether you asked for a skateboard for Christmas, or wanted to go out for the football team; every tomboy grew up the same — being different. Here are things every tomboy growing up can relate to:

1. You hate manicures.

Whats the point when they're just gonna get chipped tomorrow anyway?

2. You'd rather wear no makeup.

Contouring? What?

3. You've used the same makeup brands since grade school.

Walmart brand > Sephora.

4. You use the word "dude" & "bro" in every sentence.

Because apparently not everyone does the same.

5. When you try to dress up you feel uncomfortable.

Your friends do too, because they're confused why you look normal.

6.You feel the most comfortable in sweats and t-shirts.

You've even worn them to the bar on a Saturday night before.

7. You use the phrase, "I don't care," 50 times a day.

Whether its where you go eat, where you go out at night, or what movie to watch. You just don't care.

8. Your childhood consists of you constantly playing a sport.


From basketball, to softball, soccer, bowling, or lacrosse; you would've even played football if your parents let you.

9. You don't get scared easily

Scary movies, haunted houses, cockroaches in your bathroom. You got this.

10. Growing up, Monday nights were for WWE

When you went to a live filming of the show, you were the happiest 13 year-old ever.

11. Your childhood clothing consisted of board shorts and tank tops.

Hurley, Dickies, DC, and Element were your go to brands.

12. You wish the boys took you seriously.

And most of the time they do...but not always.

13. You asked your parents as a kid to get you involved into drag-racing or motocross, but they didn't budge.

Mostly because Disney kept coming out with movies about girls in a guy sport and you wanted to be just like them.

14. You don't understand how some girls won't drink beer because it "has too many calories"

Beer is heaven on earth. These girls be cray.

15. You don't understand when your friends get in petty fights with their boyfriend.

He doesn't post enough of you on Insta? He hasn't talked to you in 2 hours? Calm down, ladies.

16. Your friends always tell you to fix your eyebrows.

Because you never touch them. You kind of forget that they're even there. Plus, you'd rather spend your money on beer than your face.

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.
