For many college students, the prospects of entering your twenties mean one more year before finally being able to go to bars, drink, and finally having the opportunity to actually feel like an adult. But, for many other college students entering your twenties is a whole scary prospect with actually coming to the reality that you are close to entering the real world, and your teen years are finally over. Entering your twenties could be a scary thing, but if you enter it prepared it's not as bad as it may feel or seem.

These 3 things will prepare you for your twenties.

1. Get rid of all the drama in your life

Entering your twenties means leaving your teen years behind. Resolve any drama you had with people in the past or forgive the people who created drama for you. Learn to act like an adult because you're gonna be one soon.

2. Understand what is right and wrong for your life

Your twenties are a time where your decisions may affect you for a lifetime. It's necessary to understand yourself and create decisions that benefit you and build you rather than push you back. This could mean deciding on the right career choice, choosing the right people around you, or any decision that could impact you.

3. Stop trying to prove things to people and start proving things for yourself

In your teen years, many individuals may have done things to prove they are a certain way or to uphold a certain image. It's necessary that you stop living for other peoples opinions about yourself, and start doing things that prove you are capable for yourself.

Your twenties can be a scary time for people, but once you start growing up, its necessary you begin to understand that the way you think and the actions you create can benefit or hurt you in the long run.

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.
