Oh, you.

7 Things I Hate About You

Wait... 5 things I Hate About You. Because seven is a tad bit overkill:

  1. You’re insecure. You walk around like you know what you’re saying but we all know the only person you’re kidding is yourself. You want people to think you’re smart so you use words like “essentially” and you only drink fair trade coffee. You want people to think you’re important, so you make up stories about your boring weekends. You want people to think about you so you do anything for a response.
  2. You’re vain. Everything is about you, isn’t it? Well, I really cannot blame you for that terrible point of view - mommy and daddy told you a long time ago that you were special. You feel entitled to everything. You complain when your precious day does not go as planned. And what do you do when your day isn’t the fairytale that Grandma Sugarcoat and Godmother Brightside promised? All hell breaks loose.
  3. Your friends. They look like the 57th page of SoYouWannaBeOriginal Magazine. They absorb everything that media has to offer and run with it. Snapchat is the only way to prove they are unique so they plan events around how good the snap story would be. They go to college and study engineering -- because Uncle Benjamin promised them a big house once they’re 30-- from sunday to thursday morning and do everything imaginable to escape their empty useless minds from thursday night to saturday. They pretend to like each other so that their profile pictures on the cloud stay cool. On instagram, there are more followers on their page than there are people they follow. It creates the illusion that people want to be them.
  4. Your phone. The first thing you run to when you wake up. The last thing you stare at before you stare at your eyelids for 8 hours. You freak out if it dies, or if it falls, or if it doesn’t wake you up, or if your call drops, or if it doesn’t tell you the weather, or if it doesn’t tell you what to do.
  5. You. Just you.

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.
