With the holiday season quickly approaching here's a list of all the things the teenagers of the family ALWAYS hear at family get-togethers and usually hate answering.

1. How's school? Are your grades okay?

2. Are you in a relationship?

3. Why aren't you in a relationship?

4. You know, when *enter older cousin's name here* was your age, they were in a relationship all the time.

5. You know *enter a different older cousin's name here* is doing so good right now in *something that you do too and they are trying to say that their child is better than you*

6. What are you majoring in again?

7. (If you are still in high school) Have you thought about college yet?

8. What are your financial plans to pay off school after graduating?

9. Why do you look so angry/bored/tired?

10. How's the food at school?

11. Have you been eating enough? (Or) What have you been eating? You look so big.

12. Do you have a job?

13. You know, you can't work in a pizza place for the rest of your life.

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.

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.
