If you want to know me, here are 17 fundamentals.

Futurama is my guilty pleasure.

It's mindless and oddly hilarious.

My favorite genre of music is psychedelic pop.

Tame Impala, the Japanese house, beach fossils, alt- J, and the beach house are just a few of my favorite bands. Bop is a bop, man.

One of my favorite foods is tomatoes. 

I enjoy eating tomatoes like apples.

My least favorite food is chili.

Hate with a burning passion.

I feel guilty every time I eat meat.

I loooooove animals with everything inside me but I am not strong enough to completely give up meat.

I play a mean game of Scrabble.

My mom and I can always spend an evening playing Scrabble.. even though she beats me every time.

John Mayer is love of my life.

He just doesn't realize it yet... Shawn Mendes, a short second.

Growing up I wanted to work at a bank.

I was under the illusion that the banker got all of the money.

I have just recently met my grandpa and uncle.

They are some of the best people I have ever known.

I am a licensed insurance producer.

"Like a good neighbor, State Farm is there."

Every time I use an automatic door I feel like royalty.

Princess Shelby is not entering the room!

I have not grown since I was in the 7th grade.

Same height, shoe size, and clothing size.

I broke my arm on my 5th birthday.

I got to stay home from school though.. You best believe my pink cast was signed at school the next day.

I come across as blunt and aggressive.

I do not know how to sugar coat things so I am very matter of fact and most people do not know how to take it.

Ice cream was the first grown up food that I ate.

At just a few weeks old... Thanks Dad for the ice cream addiction.

I would rather listen to music than talk in the car.

I may or may not replay a song if someone is talking through my favorite part.

When people ask me to describe my style, I like to say preppy with bright colors.

Most of the time I like to look like the rainbow threw up!! No such thing as too many bright colors.

10 Thoughts Of A 5th Year Senior

What about those of us who don't do it all in four years?

"College will be the best four years of your life" is a phrase that we have all heard growing up. College is painted as a magical place to us while we are in high school. A place you go to learn, meet your best friends and probably have the time of your life while all of this is going down. Four whirlwind years, where everything that you've known changes and you start to learn what it means to live on your own, have a job, etc. But what about those of us who don't do this all in four years? Major changes, hard courses, switching schools, career paths changing, these are just a handful of factors that could extend your four years to five, six or seven. There is nothing wrong with taking extra time to graduate, but returning as a fifth-year is a little different. Most of your best friends have most likely graduated and moved and while you may be one of the oldest undergraduates on campus, you might feel as awkward as a freshmen. A world that became home and comfortable to you is still there but it's slightly different than you've known it to be and you have to find a groove to fall into. These are thoughts you'll have as you look ahead to returning to your college campus, with a victory lap planned.

Aubrey Plaza is one of my favorite humans in Hollywood. She's honest, blunt, unapologetic, and hilarious. I just started my sophomore year of college, and found that some of her best moments can accurately describe the start of the school year.

1. When your advisor tells you that you should declare a major soon.

2. Seeing the lost and confused freshmen and remembering that was you a short year ago, and now being grateful you know the ins and outs of the campus.

3. Going to the involvement fair to sign up for more clubs knowing that you are already too involved.

4. When you actually do the reading required for the first class.

5. Seeing your friends for the first time since last semester.

6. When you're already drowning in homework during syllabus week.

7. Realizing you don't have the same excitement for classes as you did as a freshman.

8. Going home and seeing people from high school gets weirder the older you get.

Dear Mom,

You took care of me and my brothers our entire lives and you still continue to! I will not be able to truly grasp all of the hard work that you put into this family until I create my own one day. But, I know that there are plenty of times I forgot to give you a simple thank you or an appreciative smile. I thank you for everything that you have done for me and will continue to do for me. Here are some examples of those times where you had my back and I forgot to pat your back for saving me:

College is hard. As people ages 18-22, we’re just trying to figure out what we’re doing with our lives, our careers, our eating habits, exercise routines, sleep patterns, and other necessities for adult life. We definitely don’t take proper care of ourselves; it’s basically impossible when we have essays, tests and readings due and somehow we’re supposed to eat right, exercise and sleep. We’re doomed to get sick. I have zero experience in science but when I get sick there are certain things I do to make myself better.
