There will never be a greater boss than Michael Scott. Although the majority of the things he said and did were completely inappropriate, being manager of the Scranton branch of Dunder Mifflin Paper Company always came easy to him. Whether he was sleeping with his boss or doing "parkour" with his employees, he exemplified many characteristics of being a natural-born leader.

Here are a few times that Michael said it just right:

1) "Toby is in HR, which technically means he works for corporate, so he's really not a part of our family. Also, he's divorced, so he's really not a part of his family."

2) "A gentleman does not kiss and tell. And neither do I."

3) "Sometimes you have to take a break from being the kind of boss that's always trying to teach people things. Sometimes you just have to be the boss of dancing."

4) "Dwight, you ignorant slut."

5) "Sometimes I'll start a sentence, and I don't even know where it's going. I just hope I find it along the way. Like an improv conversation. An improversation."

6) "Abraham Lincoln once said that "If you're a racist, I will attack you with the North" and these are the principles I carry with me in the workplace."

7) "Listen, I like kids, but this is not a kids environment. This is like HBO. No limits. Who knows what I'm gonna say? Crazy stuff and it is R-rated. It is not rated G. I'm like Eddie Murphy in Raw and they are trying to make me into Eddie Murphy in Daddy Daycare. Both great movies, but still."

8) "This is our receptionist, Pam. If you think she's cute now, you should have seen her a couple years ago."

9) "People will never be replaced by machines. In the end, life and business are about human connections. And computers are about trying to murder you in a lake. And to me the choice is easy."


As you can probably tell, The Office is one my favorite TV shows. What I've come to realize is that a lot of the things we laugh at in the show are things that we wish would happen in our own lives. Michael, through unorthodox methods, always kept things interesting at Dunder Mifflin. Whether it was hosting the Dundies, hitting employees with his car, or organizing terrible office retreats, you could always count on Michael to be the kind of boss we all wanted.

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.
