Classes are finally over, the end of the school year is upon us, and the only thing sitting between you and a summer full of fun are those finals. Final exams are what all college students absolutely dread. By the time final exams roll around, your mind is in summer mode, your body aches for sleep, and yet here you are, up all night cramming for finals and trying to learn 15 weeks of material in a matter of hours. It's so easy to procrastinate, and let's be honest, there are so many things I would rather be doing than studying for finals, including...

1. Rearrange my entire dorm room.

2. Binge watch every show on Netflix.

3. Shave my head.

4. Nap for the week.

5. Live in Antarctica.

6. Relive middle school.

7. Clean the bathroom of a frat house.

8. Sit in traffic all day.

9. Drink expired milk.

10. Run a marathon.

11. Rewrite the dictionary.

12. Spend finals week in prison.

13. Be trapped in a room with Donald Trump.

14. Only eat beets for the rest of my life.

15. Have a root canal.

16. Shave a hairy man's back.

17. Go streaking across campus.

18. Watch paint dry.

19. Read Shakespeare.

20. Gain 50 pounds.

21. Lose $100.

22. Kick a bees nest.

23. Laundry.

24. Take a freezing cold shower.

25. Play in traffic.

26. Go skinny dipping in the middle of December.

27. Pluck my hairs out one by one.

28. Get a face tattoo.

29. Get lice.

30. Have blood work done.

31. Go to the dentist.

32. Scrub the floor with a toothbrush.

33. Actually vote for Trump.

34. Pick a fight with Ronda Rousey

35. Rub hand sanitizer on a fresh cut.

36. Wear gray on gray.

37. Go skydiving.

38. Clean my room.

39. Make my bed.

I would basically rather do ANYTHING than have to study for my finals... Including...

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.
