If You're From Colorado, These Memes Will Definitely Hit Home
Brad Barmore

Home, no matter where I am, will always be that rectangular shape of a state in the middle of the U S of A. Being born and raised in Colorado, has allowed me to live a life full of the outdoors, three hundred and sixty-five days of sunshine and bleed blue and orange.

People from the fifty-two eighty have this unspoken, or in my case outspoken, pride about being from such an amazing state because there is no place like it. These memes are just the funnier and simpler way of describing the uniqueness of what it is like to live in the Mile High.

Since April will practically be here before we know it, this is the most accurate meme out there. Just because its Spring means absolutely nothing from where I come from because the snow doesn't have a deadline. (Side note: this is a scene from the movie "The Shining" which was based on a book Stephen King wrote during his time while staying at the Stanley Hotel in Estes Park, CO) - carry on.

From the moment you start understanding your surroundings at a young age to learning how to drive, direction becomes solely based on the location of the Rocky Mountains. If you don't know where you are and the compass on your iPhone is dead just find the mountains and you will know which way is west. It's that simple!

For me personally, this is my worst nightmare. I despise these so-called creatures that serve ZERO purpose. Now I know there are much worse insects in other states and I am blessed that I do not have to deal with them, but these moths are a force to be reckoned with when summertime comes around.

Like I said before, we bleed blue and orange. We may not always have the best football team but we sure as hell have some of the best fans in the country. Sorry not sorry, if you are an Oakland Raiders fan who is reading this, kindly leave.

This one makes me actually laugh out loud because of the accuracy. Chacos, check. Nalgene water bottle, check. Carabiner, check. Last but not least, unnecessarily huge backpack, check! No matter where you are, you are bound to see at least someone dressed exactly like this guy.

Of course, there has to be a weed related meme since the Mile High state is living up to that title in a whole new way now that it is legalized. In my opinion, this is old news and its "hype" has come and gone. Colorado has no vacancy. Bye bye!

A car that is dependable, spacious and environmentally friendly. What more could you want in a car than four-wheel drive, room for your massive backpacks, and a good deed for saving planet earth one car at a time?

Road rage usually does not come from other drivers on the road, it comes from the self-righteous bikers who take up the entire lane of traffic.

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.
