Winter break is every college student's dream come true. Sleeping, adventure, (usually) no class work. It's the best time of the year. It's also Christmas and New Years, and the time for revolutions. Winter break is also a time to start and finish some binge-worthy TV shows. Here are my top _.

1. "Peaky Blinders"

A show starring Cillian Murphy (Batman Trilogy), Sam Neill ("Jurassic Park") and Tom Hardy ("Mad Max"). It's a Netflix Original series about a British gang trying to go legit and they have a long bumpy road that causes some major difficulty. It's a great show that reminds me of "Sons of Anarchy" with Charlie Hunnam and Ron Perlman, except they aren't motorcycle gangs and it's based entirely in Europe and it's in the 1920s.

2. "Luke Cage"

Who doesn't love attractive people with the heart of gold and who also happens to be invincible? Luke Cage is a great story about a man who was on the wrong side of the tracks but he was turned around and became a superhero, Wolverine style (because it was pretty much the same thing...).

3. "Jessica Jones"

Another Netflix Original about a super awesome heroine who kicks butt and solves crimes. She's a little rusty around the edges but she's great to watch!

4. "The Walking Dead"

If you're not already hooked on this show, please try it. Zombies, attractive people, survival. It has it all. The plot thickens and it's tastefully suspenseful. Netflix has the first six seasons and the seventh is airing now on AMC.

5. "Gotham"

Super (and not so super) heroes are in and I think I've made it clear how much I love them. The DC universe is expanded and given some light on the beginning of Gotham's worst criminals and the famed vigilante. This show also has attractive people doing awesome things (shooting guns, fighting with their fists, hero stuff). Netflix has seasons one and two and the third is airing now on Fox and streaming on Hulu.

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.
