8 Times You Wanted To Be Maddie Ziegler

Admit it, you're jealous of the "Dance Moms" star.

8 Times You Wanted To Be Maddie Ziegler

I'm totally obsessed with the Lifetime show "Dance Moms." It follows Abbey Lee Miller's elite competition team as they train for and win dance competitions across the country. My favorite dancer, like Ms. Abby, is Maddie Ziegler. I'm not going to pretend to know anything about dance, because I don't, but I do know that Maddie is amazing. Not only does she rarely lose in competition, she's also doing amazing things off the stage too, like starring in a movie to premiere later this year. Now, I get that it's a little ridiculous to be jealous of a 13 year old dancer from Pittsburgh, but here are eight times we just couldn't help but want to be Maddie.

1. When she starred in Sia's music video for "Chandelier"

Sia reached out to Maddie after seeing her on "Dance Moms."

2. Then she walked the red carpet at the Grammy's with Sia.

Maddie entered the award show dressed as Sia's mini me.

3. And later performed at the show with Kristen Wiig.

This was something that I didn't even know I needed.

4. When Maddie and Shia LaBeouf starred in Sia's "Elastic Heart" video.

Was this weird? Yes. Did I watch it repeatedly? Also yes.

5. She walked the Ralph Lauren Polo runway.

What other 13 year olds have walked in a runway?

6. She danced with the Rockettes.

Watch this adorable video of Maddie learning one of their dance routines.

7. This Seventeen Magazine shoot.

I'm actually obsessed with this ballerina look.

8. And literally any time she steps on stage.

How does she keep spinning like that?

"Dance Moms" won't be the same after Maddie leaves at the end of this season. But I'm sure we'll see her putting her crazy amount of talent to work in whatever she does next.

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.
