Roast Edition: Why I Live For Those Awkward Moments
Wikipedia

What is better than seeing someone you slept with, out on the town with some new trick? Answer: A large sum of cash (probably because I’m not that lucky). Anything else, I would say the limit does not exist, isn’t that what Lindsay Lohan said? It doesn’t exist, at all; we can all agree that whenever you run into an awkward moment you are low key smiling about it, also while having the facial expression of looking constipated. Yes we are nervous, but we really don’t give a shit.

Awkward moments are vital to making sarcastic assholes like me; make fun of others like say our exes, or any other situation in general. Truth be told, there is nothing more awkward then when I oversaw a lady ask another lady where her husband was, and she responded “This is actually my wife.” No we aren’t laughing because this lady is a lesbian; let’s establish that before my sensitive generation starts crying. We are laughing because this other woman was dumb enough to think that everyone else was just like her. Probably in a shitty marriage, and having sex with her neighbor. In fact, that turns out to be more awkward then her harmless intent of asking someone if she had a husband.

I have concluded that everyone at some point lives this big giant awkward life and it starts when we are born. Let’s be honest here, how creepy are the freaking teletubbies and why the hell did some parents think these awkward aliens were entertaining? I get it; maybe they are a little funny sober or not, but only because they are awkward as hell. What’s even more awkward is being that kid who grew up watching PBS, when everyone else was watching Disney and Nickelodeon. This is a total 90’s kid problem, and if you don’t understand, then that is awkward. Did you grow up watching the wiggles or something? Or probably one of those good ole boy shows from way back when, you know the ones our elders talk about every day.

Life has absolutely blessed us all with these awkward moments. I think I live for it. Why make these situations worse then what it really is? In other words, why not just laugh at those horrible awkward moments rather then become offended? Life is way too short to be serious all the time, so I’ve chosen to embrace the awkwardness.

You will have to choose your own criteria for awkward moments, but if you’re like me, you laugh at anything and everything just because. There is nothing more liberating then feeling that tension in the room, all while keeping a smile on your face. Or that constipated look rather. You could make things awkward just by doing that. It’s easy to make the room full of awkward looks and people. Just remember the lady addressing the lesbian in the room. I’m sure she felt really awkward.

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.
