Big Foot

Can you imagine living your entire life classified as an "unknown species"?

Cryptozoology: the study of evidence tending to substantiate the existence of, or the search for, creatures whose reported existence is unproved, as the Abominable Snowman or the Loch Ness monster.

Skunk Ape, Moccasin Joe, Sasquatch, The Bush Man or my new personal favorite, The Hairy Stinka' Boo as they call him down South; all names pertaining to the most famous cryptid of them all...

Bigfoot.

The sasquatch is a large, hairy, creature that is distributed over the North American continent to varying degrees of concentration. Its massiveness and deviation from the typical human appearance and gait leave no doubt in the mind of observers that they have seen a creature different from man or known animals.

This hairy, bipedal humanoid always seems to be in the spotlight. Disputes regarding the very existence of this creature never seem to cease. The definition of Cryptozoology even takes a stab at the poor beasty, "reported existence is unknown", unknown? Harsh.

Can you imagine living your entire life classified as an "unknown species"? I sure can't. Have you ever stopped to think that maybe we are viewing The Hairy Stinka' Boo in the wrong way?

I mean, honestly, we have really stuck this glorious fellow in a box. A giant, hairy, unintelligent, beast, who is not quite human, but not quite an animal. He has no purpose other than to roam the North American continent alone. Sightings have been documented in numerous locations, but any contact is mere "speculation." Not to mention he must be pushing a couple hundred years old. He's a grandpa at this point, but he still roams. What ridiculous logic.

First of all, the idea of a Big Foot is just plain silly. It is more than obvious that there are multiple. Herds of "Sasquai" if you will. How on earth could there only be ONE? The herds are composed of males and females.. hello basic science, reproduction. The Sasquai migrate like birds, based on weather patterns, hence the multiple sightings in different geographic locations. As far as the lack of human contact goes, maybe they are smart enough to realize that humans kind of suck, and should be avoided.

As far as I'm concerned, these marvelous beings have it made. They get to travel the continent undercover. They are free to roam as they please, and get to avoid contact with the humans as they please. They also look like they are always wearing permanent fur jackets, stylish? Without a doubt.

So fellow humans, stop the hate. Stop encouraging ridiculous speculations pertaining to the existence of such glorious creatures. Spread awareness of the truth, and maybe, just maybe, you will get the privilege of seeing a herd of Sasquai migrating across the Great Plains.

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.
