For those who are unaware, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have become engaged! Now that Harry has asked the big question, we have a lot of thoughts.


1. WHAT?

Many never thought this day would come, some have been waiting patiently since the last royal wedding, and some are confused by all the hype. Whichever category a college woman falls into, the resent headline definitely made them do a double take.

2. HECK YES

For the many who cannot get enough of Will & Kate, this new royal couple is the best finals gift they could dream of. To the world at large, this is a historic moment that speaks to the change in British tradition. Markle is much more than a 'new princess'. She is an American woman of color recognized for her own talents. She starred in a major network television show for years before royalty entered her life.

3. HECK NO

When some girls imagined this day, they pictured themselves in Meghan Markle's shoes. I feel that it is important, at this momentous time, to take a moment of silence for everyone hoping to join the British Royal Family.

4. *CHEERING*

This is all just very exciting okay? Who else is beyond pumped to see her dress? Just me? Okay....

5. *PREPARING*

A royal engagement means so many exciting things are on their way. It's time to begin preparations for a full-day of viewing the weddings, more baby royals, and tons of prince double dates!

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.
