PSA To Women Everywhere: Keep On Marching
Twitter Moments

When over 5 million humans worldwide show their love and passion for supporting reproductive rights, WOC, LGBTQIA, =work=pay, BLM, combatting violence, people with disabilities, climate change (omg that's real??!!?), education, immigration, R E L I G I O N, etc....it's a big deal.

Hold up.

Before you start ticking to ask sarcastic questions about why people march, claim you are not represented by the women participating, make snide comments about how no rights have been taken from women since President Trump was sworn in, or denounce the significance of the Women's March on Washington itself, you should do some research on the march as a whole.

**cough cough official website pdf and more**

Reference legitimate sources while making your arguments INSTEAD of using tweets and captions (i.e. the list above) as points of discussion. I've said it before and i'll say it again... discussion should not be disrespect.

Now, your 1st amendment rights allow you free speech; thus, you obviously DO NOT have to agree with me or any of my beliefs, but if you do, i'm speaking to you next.

DON'T

STOP

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.
