Everyone has to make an Office listicle at least once in their Odyssey career. Whenever I'm stressed or depressed, I watch The Office -- it has become my everything. So, by writing this article, hopefully, my excessive Netflix-watching is finally paying off. Also, yes, I know I'm a little late to the trend, but don't judge me and let me thrive here.

1. Group projects.

When I'm doing a group project and someone finally acknowledges one of my ideas even though I had to repeat it ten times.


2. College budget.

When I exceeded my college budget for the month in the first week because I couldn't stop buying holidays coffees and I know I'm the worst person ever.



3. Club fairs.

Okay me during freshman year when I attended every single event, club, homecoming week activity, orientation, and got all the free pizza and t-shirts.


4. In-class discussions.

Being a political science student this happens a lot; when I'm in class and the Donald Trump voter says something racist and claims it's not racist, but, "just facts."


5. Starbucks.

When I go to Starbucks to do my homework instead of sitting in my room, but I just get a frappuccino and play on my phone the entire time.


6. Dogs.

When I'm away at school and miss my dog, so anytime I see a dog, I claim them as my own.


7. Holiday season.

When it's finally the holiday season, but then I remember I have finals coming up and all of my happiness leaves my body.


8. Comfort zone.

Whenever people tell me to step outside of my comfort zone, and I do for two seconds and absolutely hate it.



9. Being late.

When I have anxiety about being late and I have back-to-back classes with only ten minutes in between each.


10. Morning work.

When I'm at work and someone tries to communicate with me even though it's 9 a.m. and I have to work a 10-hour shift.


11. One Direction.

Me in the club anytime they play a One Direction song and I'm the only hype one.


13. Drama.

When I'm the person who never knows of any drama happening and someone finally tells me something juicy.


14. Stupid questions.

When I'm in class and someone asks the most basic and unintelligent question ever and wastes all of my precious time.

15. Driver's ed.

When I first started drivers ed and had no idea what I was doing, and I kept hitting all of the cones and jumping the curb.

16. Speed limit.

Last, but not least, when I drive five miles over the speed limit and I feel like the most rebellious person in the world. That is, until I see a police officer, and then I slam on my breaks and proceed to drive five miles under the speed limit... #relatable.

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.
