Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson stopped working full-time for WWE sometime in late 2002. His attention had shifted to Hollywood where he became the Scorpion King. He stopped working for WWE all together sometime in 2004. He did come back to WWE in 2008 to induct his father, Rocky Johnson, into the WWE Hall of Fame and he came back again in 2011 to host WrestleMania XXVII in Atlanta and have a couple of matches since then but it's only been a part-time gig.

John Cena stopped working full-time for WWE sometime in the mid-2010s. Granted, he still appears on WWE programming more often than The Rock, but he is now technically a part-timer who is described as a "free agent" on WWE programming. Cena's filmography to this point hasn't been on the same level as The Rock's but it's getting there.

Cena has made appearances in hit films "Trainwreck", "Sisters", "Daddy's Home" and "Daddy's Home 2", and he voiced Ferdinand the bull in the animated film "Ferdinand." Cena has also appeared on multiple talk shows and he has hosted Saturday Night Live.

Not to mention that John Cena is literally a walking and talking meme. Everyone who had the Internet and a Twitter account in the mid-2010s has more than likely seen a John Cena meme at some point. From the "John Cena Prank Call" meme to the "Cena Wins LOL" meme, there's no doubt that Cena is a very meme-able individual.

But, I'm calling it now. Give a it a few more years and John Cena could very well be on the same level of popularity as The Rock. Who knows? Cena and The Rock have faced each other at WrestleMania twice already. Maybe with a couple of more years, there could be a third encounter in the future.

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.
