It seems like every time we check our Facebook newsfeed we see one of those prewritten "share if you agree" or "post this if you still believe" posts. But the newest post is part of the hashtag "save the culture." This tag is trying to get more people back into reading once again. There is a fun new game that had become part of this new trend and here's how we first start to hear about it

The post reads, "Calling out to all of you bookworms and book lovers from all walks of life. We need at least 6 people to participate in a book exchange. You can be anywhere in the world. All you have to do is buy a book you love and send it to one person. You will receive approximately 36 books back. If you are interested click 'like' and I will message you all the details. Happy reading! #savetheculture."

I won't give away all the secrets so I'm not going to tell you what the message is once you like the post. But I'll tell you how it works.

Once you have seen someone's post about this new and exciting adventure go ahead and like it!

You'll then get a message it will tell you the basics of how this game is supposed to go.

What you are supposed to do is take a book that you really have truly loved, then send that book to the person's address that was sent to you.

Then go and post this as your status and see how many people have liked it and repeat.

I already sent mine to the person I am supposed to and I am very excited, "Beaches" is a book I truly have enjoyed and it's completely different from anything else I've ever read.

Now many people will say it's a scam but I'll let you know it's not. What makes most people believe it's a scam is because it talks about your ability to get 36 books, but that requires that at least 6 people like your status and the next persons and so on.

Save the culture is such a great idea for everyone to get into reading again. It can be just as fun as playing video games. For some people it creates images in their head just as if they were playing games. So let's get our imaginations up and running once again and give this new game a try.

This a super fun, super cool way for us all to get back into reading and in a way get to know some other people we didn't know. You can learn a lot about someone from their favorite things and their favorite book is no different. It's possible that you would even be able to make some new friends and get insulted by their favorite story. So we can learn about people, get educated by reading and give out gifts to other people. There's not much better than that.

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.
