Throughout the hustle and bustle of everyday life, it's so easy to overlook the "little" things. These things that we so often take for granted can be such a great source of happiness if we choose to see the beauty in them. Sometimes, the little things truly are the big things, and they make life so much better. These are a few of my favorites.

1. Waking up before your alarm with 3 hours left to sleep

2. Jamming with your friends in the car

3. The first warm day of the year

4. Class being cancelled

5. Cozying up in bed with coffee and Netflix on a chilly day

6. Catching up with old friends you haven't seen in a while

7. Changing into sweatpants after being in jeans all day

8. Watching the sunrise or sunset

9. Naps

10. Being enthralled in a really good book

11. Laughing until you cry

12. "This made me think of you"

13. The first lake day of the summer

14. Being able to belt out every word to every song on your "Throwback" Spotify playlist

15. Making an A on a test you studied hard for

16. Going home for the weekend

17. Finding money you forgot about

18. Christmas lights, Christmas trees, everything Christmas, basically

19. Hitting all of the green lights while driving

20. Picnics

21. Going hiking on a pretty day

22. Good, deep conversations

23. Holding a baby

24. $ Payday $

25. The smell of the beach

26. Clean sheets

27. Helping someone in need

28. Rom-Com movie nights with friends

29. Waking up to a snow day

30. Seeing a little kid wave at you in the grocery store

31. Sunshine

32. Making new friends

33. Bonfires

34. Going out to eat at your favorite restaurant

35. Reminiscing about old memories with family

36. Bonding over amazing TV shows (and your love for the Scott brothers) with your BFF

37. Turning on the radio just in time to hear the start of your favorite song

25 Beatles Lyrics: Your Go-To Guide for Every Situation

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

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.

Waitlisted for a College Class? Here's What to Do!

Dealing with the inevitable realities of college life.

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.

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

And in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make

The sun is up, the sky is blue, it's beautiful and so are you

Love is old, love is new, love is all, love is you

There's nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be

Life is very short, and there's no time for fussing and fighting, my friend

He say, "I know you, you know me", One thing I can tell you is you got to be free

Oh please, say to me, You'll let me be your man. And please say to me, You'll let me hold your hand

It was twenty years ago today, Sgt. Pepper taught the band to play. They've been going in and out of style, but they're guaranteed to raise a smile

Living is easy with eyes closed, misunderstanding all you see

Can you hear me? When it rains and shine, it's just a state of mind

Little darling, it's been long cold lonely winter. Little darling, it feels like years since it' s been here. Here comes the sun, Here comes the sun, and I say it's alright

We danced through the night and we held each other tight, and before too long I fell in love with her. Now, I'll never dance with another when I saw her standing there

I love you, I love you, I love you, that's all I want to say

You say you want a revolution. Well you know, we all want to change the world

All the lonely people, where do they all come from. All the lonely people, where do they all belong

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends

Hey Jude, don't make it bad. Take a sad song and make it better

Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away. Now it looks as though they're here to stay. Oh, I believe in yesterday

And when the brokenhearted people, living in the world agree, there will be an answer, let it be.

And anytime you feel the pain, Hey Jude, refrain. Don't carry the world upon your shoulders

I'll give you all I got to give if you say you'll love me too. I may not have a lot to give but what I got I'll give to you. I don't care too much for money. Money can't buy me love

All you need is love, love is all you need

Whisper words of wisdom, let it be

Blackbird singing in the dead of night, Take these broken wings and learn to fly. All your life, You were only waiting for this moment to arise

Though I know I'll never lose affection, for people and things that went before. I know I'll often stop and think about them. In my life, I love you more
