An Open Letter To The 2018 World Series Champions

Dear Red Sox,


You are the 2018 champions.

You made history.

After 108 wins in the regular season.

You then won the World Series.

I am so amazed by my team.

You never fail to surprise me.

Watching you play is always enjoyable.

Thank you for playing an amazing season.

I am so proud to be a Red Sox fan.

I am so proud to be able to watch throughout all the years and see all the wins.

To be able to look back at 2004 season and the Curse of the Bambino.

That world series win was life-changing.

It showed that through strength, determination, and perseverance we can win.

That moment I sat in awe watching that game.

I was so proud that that was my team.

I couldn't stop smiling and jumping on the bed.

Then 2007 happened.

I can clearly remember that night in October.

Jumping up and down on the bed again. So excited.

My dad got to see one last World Series win.

And I know that made him so happy.

We then had to wait until 2013.

All season we were Boston Strong.

Because it was "our f*cking city"

Thanks, Big Papi for that one.

That win was so rewarding after the tragedy that the city faced that April.

But here's to 2018.

Here's to the determination.

Here's to the blood, sweat, and tears.

Here's to the strength.

Thank you Red Sox for winning.

Thank you Red Sox for making me love baseball.

Thank you Red Sox for being the team that I love.

Thank you for making me feel close to my dad when I watch.

I know he has watched every game.

He is the reason I became a Red Sox fan.

All I want to do is call him when the Red Sox do something good or a player makes a stupid play.

But all I can do is wrap myself in his Red Sox blanket and smile knowing he is watching right along with me.

And that will never change.

So here's to you dad, they won for you.

Now here's to 2019, let's see if we can do it again.

We are Boston Strong.


From a loyal Sox fan.

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.

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.
