The CheatSheet

It's no secret that college can be expensive. Usually, students are left with debt for many years following their graduation, and their degree winds up useless. If you find yourself working at McDonalds after spending four years on an accounting degree, follow** these seven easy steps to erase your debt in no time!

1. Sell Anything You Don't Need.

Sure, this won't make you tons of money, but there are plenty of apps where you can sell old clothes, electronics, books, etc. to make a bit of spare cash.

2. Do Small, Odd Jobs.

Again, it won't make you tons of money, but doing little odd jobs for the elderly is both noble and provides you with a bit of tax-free money.

3. Cut Off Contact With Loved Ones.

This might be the hardest step, but it's a crucial one. In order to truly become debt free you'll have to run away from home, and to make yourself truly untraceable you can't have any contact with your loved ones. So kiss your mom goodbye and hope she'll understand that this is what's truly best.

4. Create An Alternate Identity.

If you're going to truly disappear, you'll have to leave behind every trace of the person you once were. You'll have to create a new sense of style, name, job, etc. Think of this as a fun activity!

5. Pick A Place To Move To.

Don't spend too much time on this part, since it won't matter a ton in the long run. You may find you want to keep on the move, or cross borders. Usually, keeping on the move is the safest option.

6. Buy Plane Tickets.

Sure, plane tickets are expensive, but you'll only need a one-way trip. Besides, sometimes you need to spend money to save money. A plane ticket might be a few hundred dollars, but it'll enable you to leave behind thousands worth of debt.

7. Run Away To Start Your New, Debt-Free Life.

Sure, you'll never see your family again and you need to start a new life with a completely new identity, but hey, at least your loans are waived.


**Disclaimer: Don't actually follow any steps after number two but like, it's your prerogative, I guess.

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.
