Brewers Baseball Is Over, Roll In The Depression

I get it. You're probably thinking, "Depression? Over baseball? It's still going on!" Not Brewers baseball.

I am one who is very dedicated to the Brewers, especially after the last two seasons they had. I do have to admit, I lost interest in them for a little while, but thank you, Christian Yelich, for sparking that up again. Now, I'm not saying that I'm a fan of the Brewers entirely for Christian Yelich; Sure he's our MVP and whatnot, but there are AMAZING athletes on that 40 man roster that I truly do appreciate and love. LHP (Left-hand pitcher) Brent Suter? Love him. Loves saving the turtles, loves using reusable water bottles, loves recycling, he's basically a perfect human. Ryan Braun? Legendary; Ryan Braun Forever. Lorenzo Cain? Worthy of all the gold gloves.

After the tough, heartbreaking loss against the Washington Nationals on October 1st, the Brewers season came to a close, making it to the postseason in back-to-back appearances for the first time in 31 years. They were ridden with injuries, downfalls, anything you can think of, Brewers probably dealt with, (But not roids and don't come at me with "bRAun DiD StERoIdS!!1?1//1", it's old and I'm tired).

From losing Corey Knebel for the entire season, Brandon Woodruff for a good couple of months, Brent Suter for the last half of 2018 and going into 2019, to losing our MVP just WEEKS before the postseason would begin. And if you're asking, yes, I was sad that we lost Yelich. Everyone thought our season would be over by then; No MVP? Nah, y'all are done. BUT, the Brewers showed everyone that even though their MVP was a cripple with a broken kneecap, that they could still come out on top and head into the postseason.

Having one of the best records in baseball in the month of September (20-4), I was definitely confident that we were going to make it to the NLDS against the Dodgers, but we don't always get our way and thus, the sadness is starting to stab me in the chest and we are without baseball until March. I am anxious to see who we will bring back to the 40 man roster, who will leave, who will come, who will stay, all about the money and the need. Don't worry, we're not getting rid of Yelich, he's signed with us until 2022, and he said he wants to play here for as long as he can. We're good.

I don't know what the offseason will bring for us. All I know is that it's bringing back a strong Yeli, who is expected to be running around within the next month or so, and our bullpen is going to be working hard, figuring out rotations and we might see a huge change to our roster next season.

So, go Brewers, if anyone needs me? I will be sulking in my room until January for Brewers on Deck. The pain is too much.

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.
