The struggle is real for those of us who wear glasses.

Ever since I was in 4th grade, I have had to wear glasses at all times (well, except for when I sleep at night). Both my mother and father's side of the family have poor eyesight so I come by having to wear glasses quite honestly. This listicle will include common things we glasses wearers say or think. Hopefully, this will be relatable for those of you who wear glasses.

1. "Hey, I can't find my.... *crunch*.... never mind."

2. "Oh, this should be fun. I can't find my glasses and I can't see. What's worse?"

3. "Oops, I dropped my soap. Hopefully, I don't give myself a broken ankle while trying to find it."

4. "Really?! I just cleaned these off five minutes ago!"

5. "If only glasses had windshield wipers so I can actually see while walking in the rain."

6. "*Sigh* I can't go for the cool sunglasses look in the summer unless I want to walk around blind as a bat."

7. *Takes something out of the oven* "I can't see! It's so foggy!"

8. Person 1: "Hey, can I try your glasses on?"

Person 2: "Sure."

Person 1: "OMG, you're so blind!"

Person 2: "Thank you, captain obvious."

9. "Hmm, should I go for the glasses over glasses look when watching this 3D movie or should I take my real glasses off and risk not being able to see the movie. I guess I'll go with option 1 so I can actually see."

10. "Why did I put this shirt on when I know I will have to clean my glasses every five seconds?"

11. "I appreciate the big bear hug, but you're knocking my glasses off my face."

12. *Takes glasses off to go swimming* "Oh cool, these tan lines make me look like a racoon."

13. Eye doctor: "See if you can read the last line."

Me: "Uhhh...."

14. "Four eyes? That is soooo overused."

15. "I guess I'd better take these off before I go on this roller coaster so that they don't fly off my face and never be seen again."

16. "Soups, hot beverages, and ovens are the bane of my existence."

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.
