First off I just want to say thank you. Thank you for treating me so well and being my home away from home for the last eight months. I’ll start with thanking you for the bad times first; thank you for being there for my first real boyfriend breaking up with me, that time I had a breakdown during my first semester, you were there the time I screamed because I could not figure out what to write and I was mad I waited until two am the night before it was due to start it, you were there when I found out that same boyfriend had been cheating on me for months, you were there for the panic attack I had in the middle of the night and saw how I stayed on the floor to scared to move. Now lets thank you for all those amazing times; you were there for the dance party I had when Ed Sheeran’s new album came out and I loved it so much that I blasted it for hours, you were there for the first second and third time I got way too drunk and threw up for hours it got so bad that I thought I was dying ( praying to the porcelain God is an understatement), thanks for being there for those hangovers as well thank you not judging me even though you probably were, you were also there to watch me fall for my new boyfriend as well you got to see the constant smile that followed as well. You were there for a lot of my firsts and a few of my lasts as well. Thank you for being there for the good and the bad and for being there to witness it from August until May. I would not change it for the world.

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.
