This debate was unlike anything America has ever seen.

Live Thoughts While Watching the Second Presidential Debate
The Atlantic

The presidential debates in this election season are entertaining, to say the least. While I normally either shout things at the TV, have thoughts racing through my head, or frequently update my Snapchat story during a debate, I decided to more officially document my thoughts and share them with the world:

  • Don’t shake Trump’s hand, don’t shake Trumps hand, don’t shake Trumps hand.
  • Not a fan of Hillary’s pantsuit tonight.
  • Thank God Donald Trump can’t interrupt Hillary in this town hall-style debate (update from later in debate: he still can interrupt her).
  • Did Trump forget the question?
  • Is Trump real?
  • “I didn’t say that.” “It’s just locker room talk.” I hate this man.
  • Bragging about sexual assault is okay because look at ISIS!
  • The only way to make America safe again is to get rid of Trump
  • ATTACK HIM, HILLARY.
  • Did Trump really just bring Monica Lewinsky into this?
  • Yeah, it’s Hillary that should be ashamed for Trump’s misogynistic comments.
  • MICHELLE OBAMA QUOTE
  • Hillary Clinton ≠ the devil
  • “There has never been so much deception.” What about Watergate?
  • “It would be impossible to fact check Donald all the time.” Accurate.
  • I’d rather have a president who deleted emails than a president who attacks practically everyone that isn’t a white male.
  • “I’m a gentleman, Hillary.” I’m sorry, Trump, did you forget about your most recent viral video?
  • A woman in the White House is long overdue.
  • What’s the point of speech time restriction since both candidates talk beyond it every time?
  • Maybe Obama and Hillary don’t want to say the name “radical Islamic terrorists” because it leads to the stigmatization of an entire religion. The Ku Klux Klan are generally not labelled as Christians.
  • Keep calling Trump out for avoiding questions, Martha.
  • Donald Trump is a whiny toddler in an orange man’s body.
  • I definitely want a Commander in Chief who “knows nothing about Russia.”
  • “With her, it’s all talk.” http://www.dailykos.com/story/2015/9/17/1422403/-H...
  • “Let me remind you what your running mate said.” “He and I haven’t spoken.” What a dynamic duo.
  • “How stupid is our country?” Apparently stupid enough to still be supporting you, Donald.
  • “Tell me what your strategy is.” PREACH IT, GIRL.
  • “She has tremendous hate in her heart.” Hypocrite.
  • If another four years of Obama is what I’m getting with Hillary then sign me up.
  • Close gun loopholes and close the gender gap, Hillz.
  • The candidates saying something nice about each other?
  • One. More. Month.

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.
