Sleep. Oh sweet, wonderful sleep. It is so lovely to meet you again after a long semester of sleepless nights, sleepless days, sleepless weekends and sleeplessness. I don’t believe I’ve seen you since way before dead week and finals. I forgot about your wondrous perfection. I forgot about these 17 reasons why you are so amazing:

1. Being able to have it

I don’t remember the last time this happened.

2. Your bed

I’ve missed you equally as much.

3. Blankets

Soft and sweet.

4. Pillows

Softer and sweeter.

5. Dreams

The good, the bad, the ugly. But not reality, so I’ll take it.

6. Forgetting about responsibility/stress/anxiety/people/everything

I’m sleeping to forget my worries. They say it works.

7. You don’t have to do things you need to do

Sleeping is on my to-do list soooo...

8. There is no dress code

Pants? It’s up to me? Wow.

9. You can’t ever be bored

I can dream of all the fun things I wish I could do. It’s fun, I promise.

10. Snuggling

The best way to interact with another human being/dog.

11. Time flies

You close your eyes and wake up and it’s four hours past your alarm going off...hm.

12. You immediately feel better

It’s refreshing, it helps you lose weight, it helps reduce stress, it changes lives for the better...

13. No one can judge you

I’m not awake to see you make fun of me sleeping with my mouth open and drooling.

14. You are being completely productive without doing a single thing

This is my dream (see what I did there?)

15. You can pass out whenever you want throughout the day as long as you call it a “nap”

It’s 3 p.m.? Nap. It’s noon? Nap. It’s an hour after your alarm went off and you’re still sleeping? Nap.

16. You can always look forward to it

Any day is a good day because sleep is bound to happen.

17. It is the most majestic, wonderful thing God has ever created

So #blessed.

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.
