A Beginners Guide To Happiness
Angry Jellyfish//Wordpress

Are you ever sad, fed up with the repetition of life and terrified by the ever present knowledge you will one day die and face absolute nothing? Well that's OK, I have some top tips and tricks to make your time on this earth so much more enjoyable. You might even forget about you troubles and worries if you stick to these LAWS... I mean tips...

So here are my top 5 tricks to being happy and living a fulfilled life free of worry anxiety and anguish.

1. Don't play League of Legends.

You know that one nerd friend who won't shut up about this game? Well don't listen to him and play it. I can confirm that not having this absolute waste of life time sink in my life for a brief period of time this year was amazing. I not only got productive stuff done, I enjoyed doing so. So, if you want to be happy you should probably stop playing this or any other video game for that matter -- except Candy Crush. I hear from a reliable source that happy folks tend to play that so check it out!

2. Don't interact with anyone.

I know from time to time it might be tempting to talk and interact with fellow humans, but whenever you get that feeling just remember everyone will eventually leave you and you will die alone, so better not get attached to anyone. Trust me you are better off this way.

3. Listen to Kero Kero Benito's "Benito Generation" Daily.

I mean if you want to live your life in misery forever, fine, I understand. Sad people are cooler. But if you actually want the key to happiness, here it is. Listening to this album every single day forever WILL make you happy. I promise if you are not happy and you listen to this album every day for the rest of your life, you will eventually become happy. Trust me, I know what I'm talking about.

4. Don't bother putting effort into anything.

I know what you're thinking. You thought that putting effort towards your goals and achieving them was the key to happiness. Show me one person who achieved their goals that is actually happy. Trust me, on your death bed you will look back and be glad you never tried ever. You'll be laughing all the way to your lonely retirement home at those stupid try-hards who have loving family members around them and something to show for their time on earth. Silly fools.

5. Devote your life to anime and find a waifu.

You'll be needing a companion for your time on earth. What better companion than anime? If you haven't already embraced anime as your overlord and savior, get on your knees and learn Japanese, 'cause it's scientifically proven anime is the key to true happiness. It is the thing your empty life is missing. You just need to embrace your inner weeb and find a waifu to accompany you through this life and distract you from impending doom.

So, get ready to fill that void folks, this is it -- your journey towards happiness starts here. Good luck friends, and remember, anime will always be there for you.

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.
