Yes, I'm A Typical Coffee Shop Cliche

Have you ever been judged before in your life? Of course, you have! I'm not talking about being judged for what you wear or how old you are to do something. What I am talking about is being judged on what you order at a coffee shop.

Yes, the typical white girl judgment card. I love to see people's reactions when I tell them I want a hot chocolate when I go to Starbucks or Caribou. Yes, I am one of those white girls that order hot chocolate at a coffee shop and I am proud of it. Go ahead judge me all you want but I don't like the taste of coffee. I would rather get caffeine from a soda. Before you judge let me explain myself. Coffee to me has a bitter and strong taste for me. I like it with a flavored creamer in it, but I would rather drink the flavoring because I add so much it's a waste to get coffee.

Coffee shops are so versatile. I mean why else do they have hot chocolate on the menu. It's a hot drink that people love in the winter too. I feel like hot chocolate drinkers don't get enough credit. As soon as it gets warm its all about the coffee lovers. Trust me, if you're a coffee lover, I still like you.

OK, I like my hot chocolate simple. Just the way I am. I like hot chocolate just the way it is with whipped cream on top and if you ever want to make me happy the more whipped cream the better. I don't get all crazy and add marshmallows to it. That's a whole other story.

So, go ahead and judge me because I am as white as can be when it comes to ordering at a coffee shop. I am glad to appreciate the term "white girl."

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.
