In life, there are people who come into your life and there are people who leave, that’s a fact we all know to be true. I have noticed recently a trend of talking about the people who leave on social media - and while this is empowering, I feel that the people who come into your life and rock your world need to be highlighted, too.

College is an especially great time to focus on this because it can sometimes feel as though you meet someone new every single day. Some of these people are better for you than others, but the ones who are good for you seem to be the greatest people you will ever meet.

This year I have had the joy of being an Assistant Director in my organization and it has been the most rewarding and fulfilling thing I have done. We have 90 freshmen that all of us AD’s and execs are in charge of and let me tell you, they are one of the greatest groups of 90 people I have met.

We had our Winter Celebration last night and it was so rewarding to get to love on them and celebrate all of their hard work they have done this semester. Last night was a night where I was “in my feelings” because I realized I only had one more semester with these guys, but I am forever grateful for such an incredible first semester.

The freshmen in my organization are some of those people who feel like the greatest people you will ever meet. Each and every one of them is so diverse in their thoughts, feelings, senses of humor, almost every aspect about them; however, they are all bound together based on their compassion, empathy, leadership, and selfless, servant's hearts.

In this lifetime, countless people will waltz into your life and perhaps double that will walk out of your life - that’s why, when you encounter people like the 90 freshmen in MSC FISH this year, you should squeeze them around the neck and shower them in love whenever you get the chance. To all of the freshmen, you are life changers. I love you guys and I am so proud of you.

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.
