11 Reasons To Be Thankful For Your Dad

Dad's are one of the greatest blessings you will get in your life. No matter what mistakes you make your dad will support you through it all. At some points, you may not come to terms on the same things, but he has your best interest at heart. Be grateful for all the things your dad does because he does them for you.

  1. He always knows what’s best. Even if you don’t see it, he does. You might not agree but he will always have your best interest. If he tells you no, accept it.
  2. They will give the best guy advice. If your dad does not like your boyfriend, trust him on that. He doesn’t want you to get hurt and time will prove him right.
  3. They will always support you. No matter what your crazy dream is, your dad will be right by your side.
  4. No matter how old you are, you will always need your dad. There is not an age in life where I think I won’t need my dad. For all the little things in life, and the big things.
  5. Who else would do the voices for bedtime stories? We all remember going to bed and every time you make your dad do the voices. The story is just never the same in monotone.
  6. They try so hard to be good at girl things. Remember those days in elementary when people knew your dad dressed you and did your hair? It’s the thought that counts.
  7. They show you how you are supposed to be treated. I will never settle for a guy who doesn’t treat me like my dad does. A dad is a daughter’s first love and they will never break your heart. Dad's set the standard for every man in your life, and sorry guys but the standards are pretty high.
  8. They will always be your hero. My dad will do whatever it takes to get me the best in life. I will always appreciate everything he does for me.
  9. Your sentimental gifts to them will always make them tear up. Every time you bring up something about being their little girl, it is an automatic tear jerker. Being a daughter gives you access to tug on the heart strings a little.
  10. They push you to do your best. You may think they are being hard on you, but they can see your potential. They push you because they have high expectations and know you can do it.
  11. You will always be blessed with a good man in your life. Through the thick and thin, I will always be a daddy’s girl.

Eleven reasons are not nearly enough to be thankful for the impact you made on my life. I love you, Dad.

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.
