"Uncertainty"

This is a word that makes most people nervous and heart rates go up. We constantly and consistently deal with this within our daily lives and of course, it can be either based on a change that can affect our whole lives or just a simple decision. Either way, this can definitely make you feel like everything is all mixing together. In these times, it is so important to remember that this is a season and honestly, this could be part of the current season that you are in. There isn't anything wrong with it and if anything it will allow you to look and live your days in a more thankful way.

Believe it or not, our times of struggle, uncertainty, and disbelief are the times that shape us into who we are supposed to be and teach us the lessons that you cannot be taught in school or in a "perfect world." Which you might ask yourself, how in the world would this shape me? Well, I encourage you to look back on a month ago, a year ago or even five years ago and you will immediately see that you have been shaped, brought up and built even in the smallest of areas just by the times of struggles or unknown of what the days ahead would have brought. Looking back at your areas of growth and development can not only make you more apparent of how much we grow, but how far you might have come. So even in the times where you feel in a rut, just by you continuously living each day and pushing through is breakthrough to a comeback that might or might not be seen or known of.


So I encourage you... Trust in the unknown, find the positivity in the little things, fight the fear and trade it for freedom in the path that is waiting ahead of you.

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.
