An Open Letter To My Hammock

Dear Hammock,

I know some people might find me ridiculous when I say my hammock is my favorite thing I own, but its true. I do love you. You've always been there for me. Sometimes, I even consider you a best friend. Through my bad days and my long days, through the sunny hot summer days and the cool fall days.

You have always given me a place to nap whether it be in the middle of the quad or in the middle of a forest. You always are around with your ability to just cling onto my backpack, sometimes I can't even tell if you're there.

Any day I can hammock is an all around better day if you ask me. How much more could a girl ask for? Just a place to comfortably lounge around and rest, maybe even nap.

To be honest, I am really excited for the fall because my favorite thing is putting you up in the quad and slowly swaying in the wind as the leaves are changing colors. I don't feel like I'll be sweating away, but cooly resting easy.

You, hammock, have never let me down. You've alway been there for me from when I'm feeling down to when I'm feeling bored. You always give me opportunities for new adventures and always will give me a place to sleep at night. Where it be double and triple stacking on top of friends on the quad or going camping with friends, every time I take you out I have always had the most memorable experiences, from the cool fall days to the warm summer nights. I don't ever doubt you.

Best,

You're Average Hammocker

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.
