My Experience in a Different College Town

Memories That I made in Auburn Alabama

My Experience in a Different College Town

My goal each year of my college experience is to go to at least one away game and cheer on the bulldogs from the visitor section.

When the opportunity came up for my friends and I go to go to the Auburn v.s. Mississippi State game, since one of my friends is from the town of Auburn, I jumped on the opportunity and said yes very quickly. There was about twelve of us that went and we all stayed at her beautiful home that was twenty minutes away from the campus and the downtown life of Auburn.

Let me start on by saying the town is absolutely beautiful filled with lush trees and interesting architecture. The entire campus of Auburn is extremely uniform and professional looking and very modern and up to date on the inside of buildings. Everyone was super nice and cheerful as if it was like every person I came in contact with was like I had known them my whole life. Even when we were getting beat very badly, the Auburn fans never once said rude things or turned their noses up at me and my friends. When we got the stadium we sat down and looked out to a whole arena filled with orange and blue pom poms. They were all yelling "War Eagle Hey!!!!" and right before the game was my favorite part. The reason that the beginning was my favorite part was because before every game starts a bald eagle circles the field and then at the very last second drops onto the field to pick up an animal or something but during that everyone is cheering and waving pom poms and it was such an honor to see the traditions of another college.

The one thing that I took away from Auburn Alabama was the people were amazing and if I had a second choice as to where I could go to college it would be to Auburn University!

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.
