Over J-term, I visited Bangalore, India. It was such a life-changing experience. But with so many things to do, you might get overwhelmed. Here are the nine best things I did.

The Bangalore Cafe

Bobbie Hall

Great menu, great drinks, wonderful scenery.

Bangalore Palace

Bobbie Hall

While the inside at times was underwhelming, the outside makes up for everything!

Koshy's Parade Cafe

Bobbie Hall

If you're looking for a place with great food to remind you of small-town USA, look no further! Koshy's is both a walking distance from the more upscale places of town (including Starbucks!), a children's park, and a green space!

Tuktuks (Auto Rickshaws)

They're even attached to Uber apps. This is not a place, but an experience in itself that you MUST try!

Lalbagh Botanical Garden

Bobbie Hall

Probably one of my favorite places of my trip, it was beautiful and such a nice change of scenery from the typical hustle of India!

A "slum"

Bobbie Hall

If you're using it as an academic experience, be sure to experience all ways of life!

Slurp!

Bobbie Hall

Definitely be sure to visit Slurp! It's a restaurant created to teach people how to make traditional Indian dishes!

Commercial Street

Bobbie Hall

With so much to buy, you have to visit this location. There are plenty of street vendors and regular stores to accommodate anyone you're trying to buy souvenirs for. You can even get Henna!

Christ University!

Bobbie Hall

If you get the chance, visit Christ! It is a beautiful campus with amazing students, faculty, and staff! Christ students were hands-down the best part of our entire trip!

Someday I hope to get back to India, but for now, I'll keep remembering how good all the food was and wishing I had it here in the US.

Seriously, the food is AMAZING.

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.
