It happens to the best of us. You're minding your own business and driving like a normal person on the highway and then you see it. Stopped cars as far as the eye can see. You were having such a good day until you had to spend an hour in traffic for no good reason. If you're anything like me, your thoughts probably go a little bit like this....

1. Brake-happy people have a special place in hell.

2. Why aren't you moving?! There's a mile of space in between you and the other car!

3. Man I wish I could use my AC without my car overheating during the summer!

4. Rubberneckers belong next to the brake-happy people in hell.

5. Maybe by some miracle, I'll get to work on time today.

6. Jesus, now would be a good time for you to come.

7. Maybe if I stay at work until after 6 p.m., I'll avoid traffic.

8. It's been 30 minutes and I've moved 2 miles. This is why America is falling apart.

9. Yes, my lane is moving! Good job guys! Teamwork! Let's go! No, don't stop! Why are we slowing down again? NO!

10. LEARN HOW TO MERGE WITHOUT STOPPING!!

11. Obviously you didn't buy the turn signal package when you bought your car, did you?

12. Why...whyyyyyy.....Why are you slowing DOWN?!?

13. I'm so glad you discovered your blinker, but I'm not letting you over.

14. Does my dog count as a second passenger so I can use the HOV lane?

15. Oh no you don't, minivan. I've been waiting to exit for 15 minutes, you get in line and wait like the rest of us.

16. Why are you in the fast lane if you're going to go under the speed limit?

17. For the love of Pete people, it's just a car stopped on the side of the highway. GO!

18. Oh yes, of course I left space in between me and the car in front of me just so your monstrosity of an SUV could merge in front of me. You're welcome.

19. Stop. Riding. Your. Brakes.

20. Just gotta make it past exit 102 and I can finally go over ten mph.

21. This is why people become hermits.

22. Do people know how to take a turn going more than 20 mph?!? STOP SLOWING DOWN!

23. Get off your phone, "Daddy's Little Angel" or you'll become a real one in about five seconds.

24. Why is a freaking semi in the fast lane?

25. At least my calves are getting a good workout.

26. LET ME GET OVER, JERK!

27. There was traffic because of THAT?!?

28. I'm moving to Antarctica.

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.
