Let It Be

"Speaking words of wisdom, let it be."

Let It Be

“When I find myself in times of trouble

Mother Mary comes to me

Speaking words of wisdom, let it be

And in my hour of darkness

She is standing right in front of me

Speaking words of wisdom, let it be”

Here it comes again. I can feel it starting.

“Let it be, let it be

Let it be, let it be

Whisper words of wisdom, let it be”

My hand is shaking, I can’t get it to stop.

My heart is pounding out of my chest.

“And when the broken-hearted people

Living in the world agree

There will be an answer, let it be

For though they may be parted

There is still a chance that they will see

There will be an answer, let it be”

Why does this always happen to me? Out of nowhere, like usual.

Nothing happened, I’m not scared.

“Let it be, let it be

Let it be, let it be

Yeah, there will be an answer, let it be

Let it be, let it be

Let it be, let it be

Whisper words of wisdom, let it be”

My chest is on fire.

I can’t get the air to come in and out of my lungs.

There are too many people around, they’re watching me.

“Let it be, let it be

Ah, let it be, yeah, let it be

Whisper words of wisdom, let it be”

Don’t you dare ask me if I’m okay.

Stop looking at me, you’re not helping.

Don’t touch me, I’m scared you might hurt me.

“And when the night is cloudy

There is still a light that shines on me

Shine on until tomorrow, let it be

I wake up to the sound of music,

Mother Mary comes to me

Speaking words of wisdom, let it be”

It’s stopping now.

I can feel my body calming itself.

It’s okay, you’re okay.

“Let it be, let it be

Let it be, yeah, let it be

Oh, there will be an answer, let it be

Let it be, let it be

Let it be, yeah, let it be

Whisper words of wisdom, let it be”

The shaking has stopped.

My heart is back to normal pace.

The eyes are off me.

I am at peace again.

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.
