An Ode to my favorite President.

How your lips can murmur sweet nothings

Upon my ear

I can only hear the hope instilled

Upon me.

God, I love America.


Your insensitive word crimes

Only proves your dialect

And commitment

To this land of the free

And the economy


Your touch upon the children of America

Your impact is not unlike

The Red Scare, MK Ultra,

Japanese Internment camps,

Or even the War on Drugs

And other great accomplishments

Of this great nation


The gracious curse you bestow

Towards the children

In another country

I sure am glad

To be born freely

For I have no other choice


The justice you endow us with:

Words of love, except hatred

You will bring change

I have the patience

For this eventuality


My pity

Towards your elegant ways

Your sweet-talking phrases

Can make me forget

All of the promises you've made


The inhumane torture,

Can be a chore

So I will only focus on

Your conjecture

And policies that make me feel warm in my home


The sick people in the street

Wish they can see

The President in the light that I do.

Unpatriotic freaks

Would never storm the Capitol


You, you are the lesser of the two evils

So I will ignore all of the allegations against you

And I will dedicate my life

Towards your empowerment

For I am American


You may be the antichrist,

But I'm a good person

My vote counts towards you

And your satanic tendencies

For you are the lesser evil

But not the better good.


If history must repeat itself

Let it repeat

With you starring as Romulus

I have no care

For you will handle it graciously


Oh! Nation of love

And not of fear

My confidence is whole

As He keeps the water clean in the suburbs,

He drains the swamp for the alligators.


The equality in every state,

The cocaine shipped into every ghetto

The bare feet on the White House lawn

The bared teeth of the soldiers who fight

For the gasless stations


The warheads in your possession

Defines our intention

Of our boundless power

Of Nagasaki,

Of Hiroshima:

The desire for the world to fall like a tower.

For revenge is the key to equality and freedom.


The suppression of voices

The cries of Natives,

The tears of millions

Are swept under the White House grass

In order to insure

A more perfect Union.


You are the salvation for humanity

So, bomb the middle east

Lock those parentless kids in cages

Say those slurs

And torture those foreigners

Because I have faith in you,

And so do my neighbors.

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.
