I hope you dance

“I hope you never loose your sense of wonder."

My dear baby girl. When I look into your eyes I see wonder and innocence. I hope that you will always keep that. The world is full of wonder.

“God forbid love ever leave you empty handed"

Your gonna grow up. Your gonna fall inlove. Your gonna get hurt. But don't let that first heart break leave you broken. Just know that heart break is apart of life. Never ever give up on love. Once you find true love it will be beautiful. And I will always be here to catch you when you fall. Never forget that.

“ Promise me that you'll give faith a fighting chance"

God is good. God is great. God is love. There will be times in your life when you feel completely broken, lost and alone. You never are. God is always with you. Your gonna wanna give up. Your gonna wanna ask why. Your gonna be sad and mad but never give up on faith. God has plans for you sweetheart. Trust in him and your life will be beautiful just like you.

“When you get the choice to sit it out or dance, I hope you dance"

I hope you chase after your dreams. I hope you find everything you look for in life. I hope you never have the fear of being who you really are. I hope you travel to any place you want. I hope you see the world and all of it's wonder. I hope you know God's love. I hope you fall inlove and I hope you dance.

“I hope you never fear the mountains in the distance, never settle for the path of least resistance“

You can do anything you put your mind to. You are strong. You are beautiful. And you have a fire in your soul. You are an Aries my dear. Witch means you have a strong will for things. Never settle for anything just because it makes other people happy. Do what makes you happy.

“Living might mean taking chances but their worth taking, loving might be a mistake but it's worth taking"

As you get older you will see the world can be mean and nasty. And living being alive is something beautiful. You have to find the beauty in the world. Love is scarier then life. With life you know one day you will die, it's apart of life. But love, love can be uncertain and that's why it's so scary. You will make many mistakes but I will never judge you. I will never shame you. I will always stand by you. I will always love you.

“Don't let some hellbent heart leave you bitter"

When you do get your first heartbreak or when someone does you wrong. Don't let it ruin your perfect heart. Don't let pain destroy your love. Always forgive, never hold a grudge and always always love. Dont let the harshness of this world turn you cold. The world can be beautiful if there was more love in it.

“Give the heavens above more then just a passing glance"

When the world seems likes it's turning to fast, stop and look up to the sky. Talk to God. Feel his love. See the beauty that the sky has to of offer. The heavens are beautiful. And so are you.

Babygirl, this world can be beautiful but it can also be harsh. Don't let it change you. Hold on to a small part of your innocence. Don't let your heart grow cold. Always forgive. Never hold a grudge. Know you're worth it, don't ever let someone tell you any different. Know your smart, don't let people's opinions of you make you someone you aren’t. This is your life be who you want and not what society wants you to be. Love with all your heart. Know it only hurts for a little bit. Don’t give in to Peer pressure if you aren’t comfortable with something then don’t do it. Always listen to your heart, it’s the only way you will be happy. And know you are loved very much.

- forever and always, mom.

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.
