"Rose Buddies" Is The Best Thing About "The Bachelor"
Mind The Gap Zine

"The Bachelor." I waste two hours of my life each week watching this show.

It started last year when commercials for Jojo's season of "The Bachelorette" came on. I kept telling my boyfriend, Zach, how stupid the show looked and asked how people could actually watch it. He told me if I watched it, I would probably end up being one of those people who liked it.

He was right.

We started watching all these dudes "fall in love" with Jojo. The show itself is ridiculous. The idea that you are going to go on a TV show to compete to fall in love with someone shouldn't make sense to anyone. But I found myself not wanting to look away.

It's so bad, it's good. I wanted to see all the drama and foolishness these people could get themselves into.

And fast forward to now. I told Zach we weren't going to watch the new season of "The Bachelor" when it came on. But here we are six episodes deep into Nick and his mumbling. Oh and Corrine Corn. Ughhh this show.

The only thing that justifies me watching "The Bachelor" is "Rose Buddies."

"Rose Buddies" is a podcast by husband and wife, Griffin and Rachel McElroy. They talk all things #bachelornation.

These two are hilariousssss. They talk about everything that you say to yourself when watching the show. They talk about the girls, about Nick, even Chris Harrison! I find myself looking forward to watching each episode of "The Bachelor" just to listen to "Rose Buddies" the next day.

Rachel always has some keen insight to share. I don't know how she picks up on this stuff, but she is so observant! And Griffin just cracks me up. He makes the best little zings at the girls and at Nick (and Chris). It makes watching the show totally worth it.

So if you're not ashamed to watch "The Bachelor" you absolutely need to listen to "Rose Buddies." You'll thank me later.

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.
