We All Deal With No Good, Very Bad Days And We Will Get Through Them

Most likely these days happen to be a Monday.

Some days there is no escaping the dreaded "adulting" of life. We all have them. Days where we work entirely too many hours or have the oh so fun dentist appointment — you know the ones where despite your entire mouth being numb, you decide to skip into the market to grab a simple dinner and end up inevitably running into your ex! This seems to be a universal law along with one sock of each pair disappearing inside the dryer.

Those days you are so frazzled it takes you way too long to figure out why he/she continues making some bizarre motion on their face. That puzzle is quickly solved horrified with a glance in your rearview mirror. There are several universal laws. One of the biggest of of these is where one sock from each pair will inevitably disappear into your dryer.

Another biggie, you can count on. Putting it politely, when the day comes where you stand face to face with your ex, you will be visually impaired in some capacity. Brace yourself, as it can happen in many forms, I was simply fortunate to have blood and drool cascading like Niagara Falls.

Adulting is tough. Let me rephrase that, I do not think one single teenager was prepared for the amount of "adulting" that was about to come upon them after finishing high school. I know I for sure was not.

I mean let's face it, I am pretty sure that some days all that is getting me through the day is a big chocolate bar and some "Vanderpump Rules." Life is life, and I do not think we will ever have it figured out like Lisa Vanderpump really does, but I'd be lying if I said I was not going to give it all I had.

That day where you forget your laptop charger at home and are trying to survive that hour and a half class on 10%. Or when you forget you rainjacket and forget there is a monsoon coming your way.

I could go on and on, trust me. However, I think once you come to terms with the fact that life can be crazy and embarrassing, you stop taking the easy things for granted. You stop trying to become a "perfect" you. You embrace the good and the bad and you grow up, well because that's the only choice you have. Hallelujah!

So, some days if all you want to do is lay in your bed and cuddle with your dog, do it. If you can not make yourself go back and check your chemistry homework for the 15th time, just say forget it. I am a firm believer that we can get through life together and happy once we realize we all have different versions of happy.

So Mondays, flat tires, and pop quizzes, you thought you were going to win, but I think I've got the "slap of life" covered now.

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.
