The Pain Will Not Last Forever

Pain, we have all felt it and are all familiar with it. Whether it was physical, emotional, or mental pain, we have all experienced pain many times throughout our lives. It sucks to face a painful situation and it can truly break you, but you do get through it. The pain is only temporary; I am not saying it goes away, but it will not always be as painful as it is in the moment. One day the tears will be less, the heartache will not hurt as much, and it will be a little bit easier to get out of bed and face the day. Whether it is a break-up, the death of a loved one, the mean comment continuously said to you, or a job lost, it will get better. I am not saying it will ever stop hurting, but I am saying that one day it will not feel like your heart is going to explode out of your chest. One day you will be able to find a better significant other for you, reminisce on the great memories that you made with the loved one who passed away, realize the strength you gained from all of the mean comments, and find a job that is much better than the last one.

Pain is a hard thing to shake, but you can and will get through it. It takes time and does not happen overnight, but you will one day notice the difference in the you now and the you 6 months ago. You are so much stronger than the pain that is trying to hold you captive. You will get through this pain and past this pain. The beautiful part of the pain is when you get through it and you get to help someone else dealing with what you were dealing with. The pain is difficult and seems everlasting, but it is just a bump in the road.

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.
