Duke of Hastings Bridgerton

"Bridgerton" is based off of Julia Quinn's novels that are set in the competitive world of London during debutante season. The series follows the Bridgerton family, which includes Dowager Viscountess Bridgerton and her daughters Daphne, Eloise, Francesca,
and Hyacinth. Her sons are Anthony, Benedict, Colin, and Gregory.

Daphne is the oldest daughter of Dowager, and she was presented in front of Queen Charlotte who praised her very highly over the other ladies. Daphne is now set to wed, hoping to find a well enough suitor to marry and have children with. Daphne's oldest brother, Anthony, deems all of her suitors unworthy making it difficult for Daphne to wed.

But along comes Simón Basset, who is The Duke of Hastings, returning to London to take care of his late father's affairs. Simon and Anthony are very good friends after attending college together. Anthony knows Simon doesn't plan on marrying or having children because of his late father.

So the Duke and Daphne form an alliance - the Duke will pretend to be interested in her, so suitors will come and ask for her hand in marriage. This works until she catches the eye of a prince and must figure out if she was only just pretending with the Duke.

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.
