20 Small Things to be Thankful For
thanksgiving

We always recognize the huge things we should be thankful for this season like pets, cars, diamonds, but lets just take a tiny moment to recognize the small things we should notice and be thankful for.

1. Your headphones, for those few times you've dropped your phone and they were the real MVP and saved your screen from shattering.

2. When your dog doesn't bark as you come home way past your curfew.

3. When you're about to sneeze after putting on a fresh coat of mascara, but your body holds it in.

4. Your professors for believing you were really sick those days you slept through your class.

5. Spotify premium discount for students.

6. Cold pizza waiting for you at home for those nights you get the drunkies.

7. Discounted Halloween candy.

8. When the eyeliner on your left eye matches your eyeliner on the right eye.

9. Award shows.

10. Your screen protector for taking one for the team and shattering, saving your actual screen.

11. Finally finding that song you've had stuck in your head but didn't know the name of.

12. When your chip to dip ratio is on point.

13. When you remember you have a four day weekend and your week ends after Wednesday.

14. Getting tagged in the most relatable memes.

15. When you run a red light but no one comes after you and you don't see a flash.

16. Victoria's Secret 7 for $25 sale.

17. When you actually get the chip vs. swiping correct on the first try.

18. When you thought you had to parallel park but found a pull in spot.

19. Hearing loose change in the dryer that you just put your clothes in.

20. When you find a whole test on Quizlet.

Although we may be thankful for many of the larger things in life, we also have to remember to be thankful for these small relatable things that I know you all laughed about as you read this well thought out list. Happy Thanksgiving from yours truly.

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.
