the true meaning of A girl and her childhood dog
Jillian Schuyler

It all starts on that first day, the day that she sees her new best friend. Even though the good boy or girl may have no idea whats in store, the rest of their life will be partnered with that very child that is smiling cheek to cheek. (As expressed by these cute pictures from my Phi Sigma Sigma sorority sisters and younger me!)

My good boy's name is Ben, a Labrador mix rescue, the perfect family dog. Even though his main priority in life is food, he has given me so much more than the occasional kiss and cuddle.

1. Her Personal Cheerleader

No matter what sport or minor life accomplishment, she knows that her best friend is on the sidelines or waiting for her at home with a proud tail wag!

2. The Most Loved Family Member

Maddie Palmer and Family

No matter what time of day, it is impossible for anyone to be irritated with the fluffy family members, now your bother and sisters on the other hand...

3. A Shoulder to Lean On

Emily Hilbolt

You can tell your furry friend anything and you know that they are intently listening and by the end reaffirming your own thoughts.

4. Best Attention Givers

Ashley Johnston

From a *boop* to a full tackle, dogs will give any age a huge scoop of loving! Plus double trouble is the double snuggle!

5. Adventure Partner

Jillian Schuyler

She loves long hikes, he loves them more! It can be a simple car ride or snacking mid day, no one is more enthused then your furry buddy!

6.Responsibility

Erika Pappa

As we get older, the world gets bigger and a girl learns that not only does she need to care for herself, but others too. Whose better to teach her that lesson other than the one she loves the most?

7. Never Says "No" to Naps

Jessica

HUG ME PUPPER!!! Napping is a part of everyday life for a growing girl and no one is more "ready teddy" to join then her bestie!

8. Always Ready For a Selfie

Feeling like your snaps to your crush are feeling bland? Pop your favorite wingman in the mix and your instantly considered a amazing human being.

9. Warm Fuzzy Hugs

Who needs a man when a cuddle is there for you always? Can we also please acknowledge this little guys tongue?

10. Workout Motivator

Just keep telling yourself that they need to exercise just as much as you want their company. Honestly, each other's heavy breathing is kind of cute.

11. Smiles

Just take one glance and you will grin until the end of time from that cute face. Who can resist doing some puppy talk at that "wittle faaaceee from such a cutie pa-tootie!"

12. Your Most Steady Relationship

Friends to promise rings, nothing is certain EXCEPT your day one! Who needs a partner when your OG partner in crime is starring out the window waiting for you to come home?

13. The Ying to your Yang

No matter how old they may grow together and all that happens in life, at the end of the day, a semester, or even a couple years, spending time together never gets old. As soon as you give them a little kiss and hug, the dog days are over! Do you feel that? Yes, those are happy tears from thinking of the special half of your heart!

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.
