25 Things I Want To Accomplish In Life
Michael Coghlan

This is a personal list that I have constructed that fits my own form of a "bucket list". Some items on this list are not all going to be completed in my life, but all of these reveal some form of my personality and subjects that I hold close to my heart/am incredibly opinionated on. This list has no particular order (in terms of importance or what I wish to complete first), is not complete and there are certain things that I thought of to go on this list, but am not entirely ready to share. So, take this with a grain of salt/skim over it or take these ideas and use them to formulate your own form of the things you want to accomplish/fit on your bucket list.

1. Write for the New York Times

2. Be a curator for a museum

3. Write a book

4. Volunteer with Doctor's without Borders

5. Be fluent in at least five languages

6. Attend medical school

7. Manage your own clinic aimed at low-income families

8. Play a part in fighting for rights for illegal immigrants

9. Create a documentary about a controversial issue

10. Photograph real conditions in North Korea (or another dictating country)

11. Go away for a year with no contact with family or friends

12. Intern at some form of TV/Movie studio in LA

13. Commit to completing a bullet journal

14. Spend a day only with yourself exploring a city

15. Do something without thinking about it

16. Make family and friends a priority in life

17. Own a bakery/small shop

18. Be a professor at a university and community college

19. Work in some form of politics

20. Open your own photography exhibition

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.
