I absolutely cannot wait for Spring

And here's why...

I absolutely cannot wait for Spring

After the mounds of snow melt away and the grass begins to show itself again there's a change in the world around us and I cannot wait for it.

I can't wait for the smell of fresh air blowing around bringing up the earthy scents that I've missed so dearly

I can't wait for the sun to consistently be shining and creating the warm spots on the carpet in your house

I can't wait to open my blinds again and let the light in

I can't wait to cruise down a road with the windows down and good music playing

I can't wait to lay in the grass

I can't wait to ride my bike, go rollerblading, or just go for a walk

I can't wait to see people outside again

I can't wait to pitch my hammock and read a book outside

I can't wait for spring sports to start

I can't wait to wear dresses and skirts and shoes that aren't clunky winter boots

I can't wait for longer, brighter days

I can't wait to do crafts or home-improvement projects outside

I can't wait to be excited to go outside again

I can't wait for a sweatshirt and jeans to be enough to keep me warm

All of these things bring with them an attitude change that we left inside when we were hibernating for the winter. It'll be nice to see people returning to themselves again.

With that I ask, Spring, do your thing!

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.

Waitlisted for a College Class? Here's What to Do!

Dealing with the inevitable realities of college life.

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.
