Life As A College Student, As Told By Flynn Rider
Walt Disney Pictures

I am the first to admit that I am a huge Disney movie fan. In the process of watching a lot of Disney movies, I have come across my favorite character: Flynn Rider from "Tangled." Flynn Rider is my level of sarcasm and sass, and he is basically the perfect example of a college student. Here is college, as told by Flynn Rider.

1. When people ask what your plans for after college are.

Let's be honest, we might not know what our major is going to be, but we definitely know that we want to make money. Like, enough money to buy a castle.

2. Walking past your ex, or a crowd of professors whose class you failed.

Honestly, this is the worst. You broke up/got broken up with for a reason. Seeing a professor whose class you failed is like seeing your mom when you didn't do the dishes. It's terrifying.

3. When you discover SparkNotes.

SparkNotes is the Holy Grail for English and non-English majors alike. If you don't want or don't have the time to read the assigned books, SparkNotes has you covered.

4. Switching your major, then realizing you don't like it.

OK, let's be honest. We've all changed our major, and have probably changed it again. And maybe even again. One new dream becomes another.

5. Signing up for an 8 a.m. class.

It may have sounded good at the time, but you will come to regret this decision. Probably on the first day of class.

6. When it's finals season.

Nothing makes students want to faceplant more than finals. Flynn's got the right idea.

7. Trying to get extra credit.

No matter how much sucking up to a teacher you do, trying to get extra credit to turn that C into a B is not very likely.

8. When you teacher assigned a 10+ page paper.


*says with enough sarcasm to sink a ship*

9. Looking at your grades.

Trying to contain your fear at seeing your grades after you first exam should be an Olympic event.

10. When someone offers you food.

Food is the greatest gift that anyone can offer a college student. If you disagree, you aren't a college student.

11. Trying to get to lunch before the crowd.

The 12 o'clock lunch rush is utter madness. Especially to the good dining halls.

12. Talking about life after college.

College is an adventure, but the real world is one too. Once you graduate, you get to start your new dream.

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.
