My Very Own National Holiday

Would anyone be willing to celebrate with me if I declared National F*#k You Day?

I’ll be the first to admit that while I rolled my eyes when I saw Facebook was promoting a National Drink Wine Day, I was also a little excited. This gave me a reason to have a glass (or two of wine). We live in the United States. Our duty is to celebrate National Holidays. No way in hell was I going to skip one, especially one so dear to my heart.

I heard I missed National Margarita Day. First of all, who came up with this idea in the middle of February? Obviously, someone who doesn’t live in the Midwest and still sporting a winter parka. I’m saving this holiday for a hot summer night. With or without Facebook, this one is going to be celebrated with my girlfriends, sitting outside while the kids run crazily through the yards.

These holidays got my wheels turning. What if we all got to create our own national holiday? Would the country be a better place? Would we toss our holiday out on Facebook and expect others to participate? Would anyone be willing to celebrate with me if I declared National F*#k You Day? Yes, you heard it right. National F*#k You Day.

Imagine that you ask someone a question and you don’t like the answer you were given. F*#k You. The latte I ordered is only seasonal? F*#k You. Your husband comes home and you've busted ass all day on the house, to which he asks what you did all day? F*#k You. Text message from a friend upset who won't have a real conversation? F*#k You. Not sure if my daughter’s name is feminine enough? F*#k You. Neighbor who is too arrogant? F*#k You. The possibilities are endless.Before you get your panties in a snit, think of the positives a National F*#k You Day would have.

When your boss tells you he needs the deadline met on the big project, F*#k You. Your co worker that won’t shut up about her bladder control problems? F*#k You. The receptionist everyday who you speak to but doesn't speak back? F*#k You. You’ve instantly helped an unemployed individual gain a job. Yes, it might be your job that you were just fired from, but the point is you’ve helped with the unemployment rate all with a mere two words, while also celebrating a National Holiday.

Are you ready to celebrate!?!? F*#k You if you aren’t.

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.
