Witty, annoying, or both?

It's that time of the year:

College Move-In season.😯

With move-in season comes lots of stress, money, packing, and of course, the basic Instagram captions. I'll admit, they're creative and I've used them too.

But let's face it, when you've seen the same on hundreds of times... it gets old.

1. "Hey MTV, welcome to my crib"

This is not a 4 billion dollar house, this is a $1,200 a semester, 10x12 room. MTV does not really care about your Christmas tree lights around your wall or the cheap bed skirt, and neither do I.

2. "My hardest goodbye" *inserts pet pic*

....OK. I'll admit. I'm guilty of this one too. But is this really EVERYONE'S hardest goodbye?! What about Mom? Dad? Your best friend? Your BED!?

3. "*insert college town name* ain't ready"

Oh no... YOU aren't ready.

4. "On to better things..."

First year of college meme.

Freshman 15? All nighters? Student loans? Let me know what these better things are that you're talking about...

5. "Messy bun and getting stuff done!"

This is more of a school year kind of caption, but let's be real. The girl that took this picture is INDEED not getting stuff done as she probably took 30 minutes to take and edit the perfect picture to post.

6. "Dorm Sweet Dorm"

Maybe it's just me but this one really doesn't work for me. It just doesn't have the same ring as "Home Sweet Home". Also I really just want to stay at home.

7. "On to the next chapter"

I'm like 99% sure everyone's used this one at some point.


Have a great school year, everyone. And if you're stuck on a caption for the picture your dad took of you sitting on your dorm bed, I hope you can utilize one of these.

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.
