A common right of passage some may say is experiencing the ever so glorious community bathrooms. They tend to come along in one's first college dorm, and they are just unforgettable. So if you have experienced living in community with approx. 40 other girls, you know these things are all #Relatable.

1. How ~lovely~ everyone looks in the bathroom at 7 a.m.


Everyone in the hall gets to experience your bedhead, lack of makeup, grumpy self. Talk about bounding.

2. That One Stall

If ya know, ya know. Typically located in the back.

3. When you have to pee at 2 a.m.

That long walk is 10 times longer.

4. Hair in the shower

There is nothing to add, it is the absolute worst.

5. Is it Gross if I don't shower?

Is it weird if I ask her? Nah.

7. You probably have a favorite sink

If you can't have a sink in your room, might as well adopt one.

8. Thinking if you lived on a boy floor.

Shoutout to the girls!!!

9. Wondering if your shower will be hot.

This might just be applicable to my sweet old little dorm, but it struggles with this. Pool water showers? Cool, I guess.

10. The people who play their music in the shower.

I was fortunate enough that the girl loved Taylor Swift's new album, but sometimes the country twang is not what you want to hear while trying to enjoy your hot (??) shower.

11. Germs!!

How clean is this? Do they use Bleach?

12. You probably love it, or you hate it.

Community bathrooms are an interesting thing to experience, but it could be worse! Plus what's 10 months in a dorm? Before you know it you'll be in a cool apartment or move into a nicer dorm. You may even miss always having a relatively clean shower!

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.
