The Drama That Comes With Weddings.

When I think back to the day my husband and I got married, I think about the relief I had once I said "I do". The months leading up to my wedding were literally a living hell thanks to my husbands family. They were no help at all, but had a list of demands of what they wanted for the wedding. One of them was they wanted more people at the wedding than what my family had agreed on. The only thing is they didn't stop to consider if maybe me as the bride, that my dream was to have a small intimate wedding, and they wanted to rob me of that dream. I later found out that my mother in-law and my husbands grandmother were talking about me in a ill manner instead of conversing with me about their concerns. In overall they made it very clear they did not like me because of the guest list. At that point I felt as though I no longer wanted to see them at my wedding, and to this day I don't care for them. If it's so easily to put me out of their family for a simple guest list, then they never cared for me or the future I would have with my husband. His family never did a rehearsal dinner and never asked if we needed help with the wedding. All they cared about was themselves and still till this day they only care about themselves. I can say for a sure fact, how a family handles wedding preparations shows their true colors, so I hope all brides keep this in mind when they read my story. Please, as well never give up your ideas just so you can keep the peace. Sometimes in life you have to realize that no matter how much you try that family will never like you, but remember your husband will always love 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.
