5 Reasons You Need Kirkwood Stacks In Your Life
Madyn Lewis

Over the summer, Kilroy's closed the 18+ nightclub, Recess. This was obviously devastating for a lot of people, but then it was replaced with the newest bar, Kirkwood Stacks. Personally, I would consider myself somewhat of a Stacks ambassador. I love everything about Kirkwood Stacks: the games, the people, the atmosphere, etc. Below are some detailed reasons as to why you should check it out!

1. An outside deck complete with giant Jenga

Stacks has a variety of games to choose from on their outside deck, a perfect place to enjoy some fresh air and a game or two of Baggo (some people say bags or corn hole)! They also have beer pong and giant Jenga – a perfect conversation starter.

2. $2 Tuesdays

On Tuesdays, Stacks has drink specials for only $2, so if your bank account is lacking and your classes start after 10 am I would highly recommend it.

3. They have vintage video games! 

If dancing's not your style, Stacks has vintage MarioKart and other Mario games for the Xbox that you can play right next to the bar!

4. If dancing is your style, they have a dance floor

There are still some components from the original recess left, like the dance floor. If you're ready to dance its an awesome place to get down!

5. The overall atmosphere is fun

Even when the bar isn't packed, it's fun to hang out there with friends! The people there are incredibly friendly and fun to be around.

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.
