16 National Days You Didn't Know Existed

BABEL

Days are always fun if you live life to the fullest. Living to the fullest means celebrating every day, so why not celebrate these special days?

January 22 - National Polka Dot Day

This is a fun and funky day to have a cool outfit.

February 9 - National Pizza Day

Whether you like it plain, with pepperoni, with anchovies, or with pineapple, this is a great day to eat up!

March 10 - Middle Name Pride Day

Usually, we only hear our middle name when our moms are mad at us so appreciate it when you aren’t getting yelled at by your mom.

April 7 - National Beer Day

No matter what type you like, IPA, HOPS, Lager, or out of a funnel take the time to enjoy a cold one.

April 12 - Grilled Cheese Day

Best. Food. Ever. So simple, yet so powerful and delicious.

April 20 - I Think We All Know This

Therefore...

April 21st - National Surprise Drug Test Day.

Don't be shocked with your results.

May 14 - National Dance Like A Chicken Day

Who cares if you look silly? Pretend you are at a wedding and do the fun dance all day.

May 25 - National Wine Day

This is a day that everyone can appreciate if you are 21. Especially if you work with children, this might become your favorite day.

June 3 - National Repeat Day

Everyone grew up doing this to annoy their older siblings. Now, there is a reason to do it again as an adult.

July 21 - National Junk Food Day

You might want a beach body, but stay in and eat a tube of cookie dough. Scoop your cookie dough out with chips even and enjoy!

August 19 - National Chicken Nugget Day

Whether you get them from McDonald’s, Chick Fil A or make them at home in the shape of Dinos, today is every kid’s dream. Even if you are just a big kid who is actually considered an adult you can still enjoy this day.

September 19 - Talk Like A Pirate Day

Arrggghhhh maytee! Shiver yer timbers and talk like a pirate all day long.

October 5 - National Do Something Nice Day

Although you should always be nice, make sure you are extra nice this day. Hold a door open for someone, pay in forward, buy someone flowers, anything to be nice.

November 16 - National Fast Food Day

Go ahead, make the pit stop on the way home. Who cares about being healthy, it’s only one day.

December 9 - National Pastry Day

Have a great start to your day by enjoying a nice pastry for breakfast. A sugary, doughy, delight is perfect for this day!

If you did not know these days existed, you do now. Enjoy each of these 16 days and you get to sound cool when you tell everyone you know them. Have fun on these days and do what they are, and eat what they are!

25 Beatles Lyrics: Your Go-To Guide for Every Situation

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

SUNY Binghamton

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.

Waitlisted for a College Class? Here's What to Do!

Dealing with the inevitable realities of college life.

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.

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

And in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make

The sun is up, the sky is blue, it's beautiful and so are you

Love is old, love is new, love is all, love is you

There's nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be

Life is very short, and there's no time for fussing and fighting, my friend

He say, "I know you, you know me", One thing I can tell you is you got to be free

Oh please, say to me, You'll let me be your man. And please say to me, You'll let me hold your hand

It was twenty years ago today, Sgt. Pepper taught the band to play. They've been going in and out of style, but they're guaranteed to raise a smile

Living is easy with eyes closed, misunderstanding all you see

Can you hear me? When it rains and shine, it's just a state of mind

Little darling, it's been long cold lonely winter. Little darling, it feels like years since it' s been here. Here comes the sun, Here comes the sun, and I say it's alright

We danced through the night and we held each other tight, and before too long I fell in love with her. Now, I'll never dance with another when I saw her standing there

I love you, I love you, I love you, that's all I want to say

You say you want a revolution. Well you know, we all want to change the world

All the lonely people, where do they all come from. All the lonely people, where do they all belong

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends

Hey Jude, don't make it bad. Take a sad song and make it better

Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away. Now it looks as though they're here to stay. Oh, I believe in yesterday

And when the brokenhearted people, living in the world agree, there will be an answer, let it be.

And anytime you feel the pain, Hey Jude, refrain. Don't carry the world upon your shoulders

I'll give you all I got to give if you say you'll love me too. I may not have a lot to give but what I got I'll give to you. I don't care too much for money. Money can't buy me love

All you need is love, love is all you need

Whisper words of wisdom, let it be

Blackbird singing in the dead of night, Take these broken wings and learn to fly. All your life, You were only waiting for this moment to arise

Though I know I'll never lose affection, for people and things that went before. I know I'll often stop and think about them. In my life, I love you more

Obviously the best superpower.

There have been many lessons learned.

1. The importance of traditions.

2. How to be thankful for family and friends.

3. How to give back.

4. What the word "community" really means.

5. That it isn't about the destination, but the journey.

6. The consequences of making bad choices.

7. To trust people, until you have a reason not to.

8. To be welcoming and accepting of everyone.

9. How to be my own, individual person.

10. How to work for what I want.

11. How to be great at giving directions.

12. How to be humble.

13. To be well-rounded.

14. How to be great at conflict resolution.

15. The beauty of getting outside and exploring.

16. To be prepared for anything.

17. That you don't always have to do it alone.

18. How to be creative.

19. To brush off gossip.

I have never been so thankful to know you.
