I am thankful for the laughter

Open Letter to my Junior Year Roommate
Laurel Kearney

Dear Junior Year Roommate,

First off, I want to say thank you. Thank you for being you and for your friendship and reaching out to me to ask me to be your roommate. Freshman, sophomore year I have had two different roommates. During freshman and sophomore year, there was a lot I learned, some things I definitely wasn't expecting. I have grown as a person and this year I can definitely see how I have changed. Now it's junior year and you came along. I am so thankful for you and how the Lord has placed us together as roommates.

Thank you for your laughs. I am so thankful for you and how we make each other laugh. They say laughter is the best medicine and that is so true. Coming back from a long day of classes and catching up is one of my favorite things to do. We always seem to make each other laugh.

Thank you for the memories that we are creating. I am so thankful for all the memories we've had together this semester. From car rides to the store to watching Netflix, and even trick or treating, we've had so many great memories. I am forever grateful for the memories that we have created so far.

Thank you for being honest and open. Being honest and open I believe is a key to being roommates. I love how I can share anything with you, and you won't judge. You will give me your honest opinion on whatever the situation is. I am so grateful for your opinions. Thank you for the encouragement that you give to me as well.

I thank the Lord every night for you that back in May you reached out to me asking me to be your roommate. I was open and prayed about it and I am thankful the Lord placed us in each other's lives. I look forward to how we will continue to grow as friends.

With love,

Laurel

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.
