Of course, the couple received a lot of backlash with viewers claiming the show is rigged and that the couple stole the trophy from the other well deserving competitors.

After nine weeks of competing, the mirror ball champion was finally revealed, but many people are unhappy about it.

All of the finalists began the night with a redo dance. Alexis Ren redid her Argentine tango to swan lake. The dance was slightly sloppy in my opinion, but it improved from the last time they did it. Bobby Bones relived his trio night number, which was a cha cha. He wanted to dance the cha-cha because he loved being MC Hammer for the night. Bobby was never known for his dance skills, but the dance was entertaining nevertheless. Evanna Lynch danced the tango that made her realize that she should dance for herself and not to please others. The first time she danced the tango, she received a 29, but her revival got her a perfect 30. Milo Manheim finished off the redo dances with a Charleston that also received a perfect score.

The next dances were freestyles. Alexis and Alan's dance portrayed their journey on the show as if it was a trek up a mountain. Their dance received a perfect score but I personally thought there were some mistakes that would take away from their score. Sharna choreographed a dance that showed off Bobby's strengths and hid the fact that he wasn't the best dancer.

Their dance, as expected, was more for entertainment rather than a showcase of Bobby's dance improvement. Bobby received a perfect score, which was his first perfect score of the season. I feel that the perfect score wasn't deserved, but it doesn't really affect the results. Evanna and Keo's dance was absolutely perfect for her. Keo stepped out of the spotlight, so Evanna could shine throughout the whole dance. The dance received a well deserved perfect score. Milo and Witney's made Carrie Ann Inaba speechless. Milo dances with such maturity that it's difficult to believe that he's only 17. The dance also received a perfect score.

When the winner was announced, everyone was in complete shock. Bobby and Sharna won the mirror ball making them a mirror ball miracle. After seven years on the show, this was Sharna's first time winning the mirror ball trophy. Of course, the couple received a lot of backlash with viewers claiming the show is rigged and that the couple stole the trophy from the other well deserving competitors. Many of the co-stars on the show answered back to the hate by saying that the couple worked hard to get to where they are and that they shouldn't be sending them hate.

I personally wasn't rooting for them to win, but I am extremely proud of how far they came along in the competition. Bobby was predicted to be the first one off of the show and he was able to prove everyone wrong. Sharna did an amazing job this season making sure that her partner did well and looked like he knew what he was doing. Although I didn't get the ending that I wanted this season, I am looking forward to next season!

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.
