6 A.M. - BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP!

6:01 A.M. - If I just pretend to be dead, will I be able to miss work today?

6:02 A.M. - BEEEP BEEEP!

6:03 A.M. - You win this one alarm.

6:05 A.M. - Alright, teeth brushed, makeup, do I want to try a new look today?

6:08 A.M. - That looks HORRIBLE, why do I ever think to attempt wings? Ah, Alexis used my last makeup wipe, great.

6:10 A.M. - That catastrophe is over. Clothes need to go on body.

6:15 A.M. - Should I just accept my hair is always going to be a mess?

6:25 A.M. - Uber says the ride is coming, but there is no driver. Am I going to be late for work again? Why does Uber play with my heart this way?

6:28 A.M. - WHAT IF THE UBER NEVER COMES AND THEY HATE ME THERE? Oh, wait there we go, the guy is 19 minutes away, coolio.

6:29 A.M. - Food? I'm thinking food. Or do I bring it with me? Or do I get something from the vending machine? SO MANY QUESTIONS.

6:31 A.M. - Did I put deodorant on?

6:32 A.M. - Now I did.

6:35 A.M. - Now to sit and stare at the wall. My favorite pastime. Do you think they would make a competitive sport out of it? Usually, when I'm tired, wall staring is pretty much what I do in order to wake up in the morning. It's great, especially because our wall paper has this flower pattern. But it isn't even, so pretty much, you spend like 20 minutes trying to figure out the pattern.

6:48 A.M. - Ah, Uber is outside.

6:49 A.M. - Hello, how are you today? Good good. Oh, we're listening to Christian Rock today? Okay cool, I'm just going to tap on my phone for the entire duration of this ride.

6:50 A.M. - Hmm, I know that Jimmy is sound asleep right now. Let me mass text him.

6:51 A.M. - "Good morning cutie, what if Cthulhu is really just one of the giant squid that people started to spot while in the deep sea?"

6:52 A.M. - "What if we're really in the Matrix, but they made that movie so that people would think it is fiction, thus stopping people from staying woke?"

7:15 A.M. - Ah traffic, love it. So many people just mindlessly driving to work. Oh wait, I'm one of them.

7:20 A.M. - Okay, this is absolutely the worst. Bumper to bumper, where's the bridge, ah I just want some coffee in my system, why is that so hard to ask for? Is it Friday yet? Oh, wait no it's Monday, man I am beat.

7:24 A.M. - THE BEN FRANKLIN BRIDGE IS SCENIC. I DON'T CARE WHAT PEOPLE SAY. YOU CAN SEE ALL THE PHILLY SKYSCRAPERS IN THE DISTANCE, IT'S ACTUALLY REALLY PRETTY.

7:34 A.M. - Thank you very much, have a nice day! Maybe if I get hit by one of the trailers, I can go home early.

7:35 A.M. - Alright, time to just quickly clock in, no big deal. *FINGER SCAN FAILED* Damn it.

7:37 A.M. - Good morning, everyone!

7:38 A.M. - C O F F E E!

7:39 A.M. - I need this to kick in like right now. OH WAIT, MY STREAKS!

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.
