Abortion Laws Are Going To Affect Women's Mental Health

Women's health is normally thought of as taboo and not talked about a lot. I do not consider myself a feminist but I am a woman and I am aware of what our bodies go through. In no way am I demeaning anyone else's bodies, but women are strong!

Think about if you were born and had no one to thoroughly take care of you. Some mothers who get pregnant are not ready to raise a human being and that's okay. They aren't trying to "kill off a baby" or "be selfish. They need some time, they might not be mentally prepared to have a child in their life especially if they may not have a father figure.

The women's reproductive system brought every single person into this world and deserves to be respected. If men have a choice to get a vasectomy or not, then women should also have the choices that they wish to have.

Nobody's life is perfect and sometimes people need to be cut a break. Everyone's mental health is important, and society has more pressure today than it ever has, with media, technology, etc.

Abortions should be thought about very cautiously, and not done for no reason. I believe that everyone deserves a choice in life, especially when it has to do with their own bodies. We have people who shoot and kill people with guns every day, but then women get bashed for "killing" an unborn baby.

I am not perfect and my opinion is only an opinion, but I believe in the women that continue to stand up for this. In ending, I believe that women's health should be discussed more and be more open. People should be more educated about women's anatomy!

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.
