When you enter college it seems like everyone has the same mindset. The one thing always on your mind is either, boys or partying. You still feel like you're being forced to go to class and get an education. I can picture it now Its syllabus week and your phone is lighting up with the typical questions, "You going out tonight? Where's the pre?" I have been a victim of these text message and still am on an occasion, but when you grow up a little you realize that the college scene might not be for you. FSU is in a huge bubble and sometimes people stay in the bubble the whole time and some pop it. Let me tell you this bubble is no bigger than a 5-mile radius consisting of the typical; Clydes, Standard, Recess. Yawn. Been there done that...a lot. Don't get me wrong here I love to drink, but what I don't love is being trampled in a cubical called Standard. Those days are behind me. Then what else is there to do? If you're looking for a more laid-back way of spending your days/ nights you've come to the right place.

1. Taco Tuesday @ La Fiesta. 

If you are sick of your usual taco Tuesday place this is the place to be. They have a great band that plays every week. $1 tacos and BOGO margaritas! Its always a great time and the ascetics are great, outside under a lime tree (how much more festive can you get?) with white Christmas lights draped around them.

2. Poor Paul's.

What some people might not know is that they give out free pizza every Sundays and Mondays. Plus they have $4.50 pitchers! Talk about a cheap date. They have pool tables and dart boards and even a hockey table. My advice for all the ladies out there: schedule ladies night on Tuesdays because, you guessed it, ladies drink free all night long!

3. Bear Paw.

This is by far my favorite thing to do. It's a three-hour float down a river in a raft. It takes about 45 minutes to get there, but I promise you its worth it.

4. The Wilbury.

Do you love BBQ food? Live music? Games? Cheap drinks? The Wilbury is the place for you. There's a different vibe to this place than most. Its a unique place with unique people which I love. It's a great place to branch out and meet new people.

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.
