AH! HELP! The semester is wrapping up! The end of the semester means everyone's nightmare is happening... FINALS WEEK. Some people question dropping out, others cry, some don't study, and other just decide to eat their feelings. These are some tips to survive the awful week in a healthy way.

1. Take a nice, long shower.

A nice warm shower gives you time to yourself where you can just breathe and relax. Just sing your heart out and let your stress come out via song! During this time, you can just clear your mind and not worry about the crazy final madness.

2. Watch some classic Vines.

Sometimes, you just need to laugh in between all the tough studying. There is nothing better than classic Vines. These 5-second videos can change your mood right away and give you that little pick up you may need.

3. Let yourself sleep.

There is pressure on students to study all night. DON'T DO THIS!! If you don't sleep, you will feel fatigue and very short tempered. It will stress you out even more! Some researchers believe the brain organizes and stores memories during sleep which is great to get the information for your tests saved in your brain.

4. Make time to hang out with your friends, too.

There is nothing better than hanging out with friends. They help stress to go away, even if it is only for a few hours. Just relaxing and being around the people you love will allow you to stay sane. Don't lock yourself in your room or library all week. Allow yourself to still be human and do everyday things you love to do.

5. Make yourself a nice breakfast.

If you are planning a long day of studying, it is a great idea to fuel up! If you start your day with a delicious and fun meal, it will put you in a great mood. Studying all day is not fun, but if you go into it with a happy attitude, you will find studying to be a lot of easier! What better way to get that feeling than a delicious and nutritious meal!

And just like that, you'll survive finals week no problem!

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.
