Don't Hide Behind Your Star Sign

It isn't an excuse for anything.

Don't Hide Behind Your Star Sign
mtv.com

Personally, I love love love love loveeee to make connections between my life and my star sign (gemini!). Most people think I'm crazy because I have to believe the stars control who I am and who I'm going to be if I believe in star signs but that's not true at all. I definitely see the gemini traits reflected in my personality and you may see some of your own star sign traits peeking through, too.

But that doesn't excuse rude or inadequate behavior. Let me explain.

Don't fly off the handle and act like a child if something doesn't go your way and then say, "It's because I'm an Aries." Don't become extremely possessive in a situation that doesn't call for it just because "you're a Taurus." Shout out to all the Geminis out there, but don't be a two-faced person when you have people who are counting on you and care about you!

Don't blame your star sign for not being a decent human being.

With that being said, don't diminish your ability to do great things because of your star sign, either! Same set of analogies as before, here. Don't be too shy to say "hi" to your crush and blame it on your sign. Take a leadership role, even if your sign says you generally aren't a leader.

Define your star sign, don't let it define 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.
