9 Signs You Know You Are A Runner
Callie Seylar

1. When the weather is nice the first thing you think is "this is a good day for a run."

A beautiful 65 degrees and sunny? Why not go for a run?

2. You get beyond excited when your mom takes you running shoes shopping.

Those things are a runners best friend. You spend hours trying to find the perfect ones that are supportive yet stylish.

3. When having a stressful day or week, you go running to clear your head.

Long week at work, big test coming up--your first thought is to run it off.

4. You truly believe the best way to explore a new place is to run it.

When you're on vacation, you feel the need to run around the area to see the sights.

5. You get super excited to map out where you are going to run.

I don't know about you, but I get a thrill from figuring out where I am going to run in the morning.

6. You would rather run than do any other form of exercise.

Why elliptical when you can run?

7. You'll sign up for a 10k simply because the theme of the race sounds fun.

Turkey trot, color run, glow run, you name it. It sounds fun so why not?

8. You run outside regardless of the temperature.

40 degrees ain't got nothing on my running addiction.

9. You couldn't imagine your life without it.

Truly my week does not feel complete without a few runs in there.

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.
