An Ode To Uptown Towson

We heart uptown.

An Ode To Uptown Towson

Oh Uptown, where to begin? Thank you for not judging my reckless Thursday nights; or Friday nights; or Tuesday...well you get it.

Where would we be without our crazy stories of getting kicked out of B lounge or CVP? Or that one time we actually got into Torrent. Every weekend we promise we will never do it again. And every single weekend we are wrong.

Sometimes, we often like to pretend that the old adage 'what happens uptown, stays uptown.' Unfortunately, that is not often the case. We find ourselves scrambling around campus the next day, hats pulled way down low and sunglasses on. Not enough water can quench our thirsts nor can enough advil cure these headaches. Our heads are hung really low and we scurry to Einsteins or get into our cars to get some food, in hopes we won't see anyone from the night before.

Pictures and videos we can hardly recall are found in our camera rolls, as well as texts we are praying that, by deleting them, the recipient will forget about them as well.

But the greatest part about the next day (or possibly the worst) is sitting around with our friends, recapping the night before. Laughing about our crazy (drunken) antics. Praying none of your friends remember that reaallllyyy stupid thing last night, but they probably do.

At the end of the day, we all love uptown Towson and we aren't really sure where our college experience would be without it.

Also, thanks for supplying us hungover THB... it's a real life saver.

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.
