All Florida State University students have faced the uncertainty of not really knowing what to bring with them for their stay in Tallahassee. Some students go way overboard and bring their whole house (and then some), while others bring a blanket, a few sets of clothes, and maybe a toothbrush. No need to search any further for what your #FSU23 Seminole needs, the most important things are right here.

1. A key ring for their keys.

The most obvious giveaway that someone's a freshman? Having a lanyard that holds all of their keys. We can hear you coming from a mile away.

2. $30 to pay off a future parking ticket.

Sorry, Charlie, this isn't the kind of ticket you want to find. There are thousands of people at Florida State every day. Do you really think your new Nole is going to find a parking spot that they're allowed to park every single day?

3. An Uber gift card.

Freshmen never knows their limits. Make sure your new Nole has a way to get home from the pregame because they got too white girl wasted to even make it to the function. #DriveSober.

4. Your old Francois jersey.

Especially great for the new Noles who aren't so sports-savvy. They'll think he's actually on the team!

5. Robitussin and cough drops.

Your new Nole is bound to catch something at LEAST once during their time at Florida State. Save them a trip to the Health and Wellness Center and just buy them some medication before they're infected by the plague.

6. A water spray bottle.

To spray at anyone who catcalls your new Nole, ESPECIALLY the Pikes.

7. Pedialyte.

For the nights when your new Nole's beverage of choice wasn't exactly one they're supposed to be drinking.

8. A hand strengthener.

The perfect gift to help your new Nole prepare for all of the swiping they'll be doing on Tinder.

9. Rhymes with "swan gums."

The supplies in Strozier, Dirac, and the Health and Wellness Center run out all the time. Make sure your new Nole is protected.

10. Bleach.

Your new Nole is going to experience night life by visiting Tally spots like the Strip, Baja's, and Happy Hour at Pot's. They're definitely going to need some bleach to baptize their shoes after a night out.

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.
