7 Signs You Hate The Sun
Erik Coman

One thing people love about the summer is the sun. The days are often sunny and hot; some people love this and spend every possible second outdoors. There are some of us, though, that don't like how sunny it is in the summer and hate the heat that the seemingly endless sunshine brings. Here are 7 signs that you hate the sun.

1. You're always looking for shade

Every second you are outside, you seek the sweet relief of shade. Whether it's from trees or a building, you are usually found walking or standing in the shade.

2. Hats and sunscreen are your best friends

Tanning? Nope. Sunburn? Double nope. If you are outside, you will be wearing multiple layers of sunscreen and a hat to keep the sun's rays from harming your skin.

3. You prefer to stay indoors with the air conditioning turned up

Even though many others adore outdoor activities like swimming, going to the beach, or hiking, you prefer to stay inside and limit your time outdoors.

4. When people ask you to join them outside for extended periods, you cringe

You just don't get why people love being outside so much! You hate being asked to do activities that involve being in the sun all day. You may even reject doing some things just to avoid the sun.

5. You highly consider carrying around an umbrella when it's sunny

Maybe you even do. Do people think it's weird? Probably. Would you care? No. Anything to avoid the sun's harsh rays.

6. You consider yourself more of a fall/winter person.

Your favorite season is likely either fall or winter, due to the lack of sunshine and extreme heat.

7. Cloudy days are your favorite days

You don't understand why people get so down when it's cloudy, even going so far as to avoid going outside. Cloudy days are when you venture out into the world and have fun!

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.
