Art Has Changed My Life and convinced me to Pursue what i love
Mac Veh

For as long as I can remember, I have always been connected to the arts. My sister was always a major role model in my life, and I remember watching her sit in our living room and create some of the most incredible pieces of art I have ever seen. She inspired me to explore my creativity and wonder what else the world of art has to offer.

In high school, I took as many art classes as I possibly could and focused hours of my attention towards perfecting what I loved. I soon learned that I differed from my sister, who loved drawing and painting, and I found myself more comfortable in the digital realm of art. Photography soon became a passion of mine and I ended up starting a photography business in my little hometown.

As I went to college, I learned about the incredible world of videography and the amazing things that videos can do and show people. I started recording everything. I would make videos for me and my friends, for fun and nostalgic purposes. I ended up loving that as well, so I decided to study more about lifestyle blogging and vlogging, and hopefully something new will come about that.

The moral of my short story is that everyone should pursue what they love. It doesn't have to be your major in college, but if you keep it as a part of your life, nothing can go wrong! I hope everyone has a hobby that they love, and I expect everyone to pursue it! The world is a big place, and you need the little things to keep you happy.

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.
