Dear anyone reading this,

All ages are welcome to enjoy my rant style Odyssey posts, however this one I think most juniors in college/university will relate to. As you may have guessed it- I am a junior (for the next few weeks anyways), and that scares me. Now I know people say that Seniors are the one who are stressed and feeling anxious for the next few weeks to come. To be frank, yes I do agree with that statement however as a junior entering senior year, all the stress of the real world sets in.

Sure most of us have plans for what we want to do, and how we want our future to be, but it's a whole new ballgame once that "once upon a time" is now. Now is the time to worry about applications to grad programs, and jobs after graduation. Now is when the first lasts will start (our last college summer). I don't know about you but there are so many emotions that are flooding me. The people I met, the time I spent here, the life experiences; I don't want that to end. Yet I'm excited I'm going to be a senior, I'm going to finally start the life I wanted and be my own person. It is all so much, but I am grateful that I am here.

To any of you reading this, good luck on finals whichever year you may be in, and may the curve be in your favor.

Love,

Your neighborhood humanoid.

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.
