When I was in high school, people used to tell me your college years fly by. I thought to myself, 'high school never flew by, so what makes college so different?' Honestly, I couldn't even begin to answer that question because as I sit here, less than three weeks away from the end of the year, I still don't know. It's scary, how fast time flies away from you; soon we'll scatter like pieces of a flower in the wind, each of us going our own separate ways for three months. It's exciting, it's emotional, it's scary. But instead of dwelling on it, here's 20 things to take your (and my) mind off the fact there's 20 days of school left.

1. Disney's four-day movie marathon of all its original movies — Because who doesn't love "Wendy Wu: Homecoming Warrior" or "The Cheetah Girls"?

2. James Franco's interview with New York Magazine where he admitted, "Yeah I'm a little gay, and there's a gay James." Ladies, how do we feel about this?

3. If you put your finger in your ear and scratch, it kind of sounds like Pac-man (thank you, BuzzFeed, for that one).

4. Third class passengers on the Titanic were served roast beef and potatoes while first class dined on haddock and shrimp...sorry Jack. Curious, check it out here.

5. "Find Dory"comes out this summer. We've waited years for this and it's finally here, childhood here we come.

6. Donald Trump could become our next president- I'm not picking sides here, just take it as you will.

7. Backstreet's back alright — The band is pulling a Britney Spears and is headlining a show in Vegas. Not to mention, there's rumors of a new album in the works.

8. #shittyfoodporn- Yes, that hashtag does in fact exist. So if after 10 minutes of trying to get the proper lighting and angle for your burger pic, just think, there's much worse out there.

9. All of the Apollo 11 astronauts belonged to Greek life — let's hope there were no salmon colored pants in space.

10. Harriet Tubman will replace Andrew Jackson on the $20 bill.

11. According to TFM, the most popular beer in America was Bud Light, with Bud Lite Lime Straw-ber-rita finishing 20th...To each his own, boys.

12. You can make popcorn with your flat iron — Yes, you read that right. Trust me, it's insane as it sounds, but google it, it's legit.

13. Leonardo DiCaprio finally won an Oscar.

14. A man successfully brought a live turkey onto a Delta flight, claiming it was an emotional support animal.

15. Kelly Ripa threw a fit about Michael Strahan leaving "Live" — Are we back in middle school, run from your problems until they go away? Lmk.

16. Any Vine involving cats or cute kids — check out "When mom isn't home," one of my personal faves.

17. DJ Earworm's "United States of Pop" mashup aka the only place where JBeibs, Adele, and Beyonce can come together.

18. "Fuller House" is coming out with a second season.

19. Prince passed away — We lost a creative genius today, RIP.

20. Syracuse weather finally reached normal people temperatures.

Twenty days. That's it, that's all we have. Can't deny the end's coming, but at least we can try.

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.
