A Letter To The Best People I've Met In College

To my friends graduating,

As I sit here in my apartment all alone while my friends and roommates are graduating, it made me think about how grateful I am to have met them. So, here's a list of thank you's.

Thank you for being some of my best friends through our college years. In college you really do meet your true friends and i could not be happier to call you one of my best friends. I do not know how i would have gotten through college without you guys and frankly I'm not sure what I am going to do now that you are gone. You took me under your wing when i was just a freshman and showed me the ropes; like how to take a y-bomb and how to do my eyebrows. If it wasn't for ya'll, I wouldn't be where I am today and I also wouldn't know how to fill in my eyebrows or look like a presentable human.

Thank you for motivating me to do well in school. As I watch you all graduate, it is only making me want time to slow down but also makes me excited to be the one to walk across the stage. As you took me under your wing, you always made sure I stayed on top of my school work and studied instead of going out on the week nights. You taught me how to balance everything college has to offer and for that I am forever grateful because without that guidance, that diploma would be very far away from my reach.

Thank you for being a best friend to someone younger than you. As college was teaching me tough life lessons, you were there to guide me through them and give "motherly" advice and make college a home away from home. Without you I wouldn't have been able to pass that test or get through that break up freshman year.

Overall, thank you for being you. You are such a beautiful human that I am so lucky to have in my life and call a best friend. Without you, i wouldn't be who I am today. Without you, I wouldn't have made the best memories of my college career.

Thank you for being you. I am sad to see you all go, but I am so happy to be a part of your life and college memories and cannot wait to see what the future holds.

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.
