Why is so much easier to tell someone to ignore the situation and think positive, but when it comes to reminding ourselves of this we become depressed and refuse to accept any type of sympathy for ourselves? Stress tends to take over the human body which is likely to cause us to take our anger out on the world around us. Passing your classes, maintaining your job, or even going through a breakup are the most common causes of stress. This is the perfect time to destress your mind by doing activities to level your mindset. Failure to free yourself from stress can eventually result in headaches, depression, and sometimes drug use.

1. Remember, Your Grades Do Not Define You!

It is important to remind yourself that grades do not define you as a person. Put it this way, most of us have attended school our whole life k-12, and now college. Realistically, we spend more time in classrooms than we do with our families. Failing a class may cause you to have low self esteem. Trust me friend, it is not the end of the world. To have a good life, you have to go through bad days.

2. Understand That You Are Not Perfect

If your boss at work has become harsh on you, understand that you are not alone. There are times where you may dread going to work but just remember this, there are so many people in the world who would kill to have your job so appreciate your workplace by being the best at your tasks, take advantage of your income, and most importantly learn to love and accept your job as a whole; unless your manager treats you like crap then you should probably quit.

3. Let It Go

It's so much easier said than done, but it must be done! A breakup is a life lesson that just about everyone goes through. That person just was not the one for you. So that doesn't mean just sit around and cry all day, nor does it mean look for revenge. Accept the fact that it didn't work out and occupy yourself with something that makes you happy. Maybe you like reading, or maybe you like being outdoors. Whatever it is, find time for yourself. You may learn something new about yourself that you didn't know while in that realtionship.

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.
