She Taught Me How To Love

A special thanks to my mom

She Taught Me How To Love

She taught me how to love…

Whole-heartedly, with every ounce of her, she taught me how to love.

Not through just words, but her actions, she showed me how to love. From hugs, to spankings, soap in the mouth, and more, everything she does is out of love. Love isn’t saying those three short words, and eight little letters. She doesn’t make you hear I love you, but instead feel it.

My mom taught me how to love.

She shows me love every day, whether at home or afar, she brings love into my life. Whether it be a text saying good luck on a test, or a package with an inhaler and some m&m’s she has her ways of reminding me of her love.

Her love is full, it’s real and passionate. Her world revolves around her girls, and nothing else could matter more. In an instant, she’d drop anything to be there for me; my mom taught me how to love.

From the day I was born she showed me her love. It’s constant, contagious, and a beautiful sort of love. She’s there in my highest, of high moments to tell me she’s proud. More importantly, she’s there for my lowest of lows, the days when I need her shoulder to lean on.

My mom taught me how to love in every little gesture. It doesn’t have to be extravagant or some big thing, just one little action can make a worlds difference. She taught me that there’s much better things in this world than money or material items, because there’s no cost when it comes to love. No matter what I know I have the love of my mom, and thanks to her, so many people will have mine as well.

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.
