We all know how huge social media is for our generation. It obviously has its perks, but I've noticed some serious downfalls! Relationships nowadays are ending because of a simple "like" or "favorite." It's honestly a shame and it needs to stop. Here are some tips to help anyone in need of how to deal with your relationship while on social media! Feel free to share this with your friends and significant other.

#1 : Stay Lowkey but not Nonexistent!

You do not have to post every single thing your significant other does or doesn't do for you. It's okay if your boyfriend or girlfriend doesn't post about you all the time. It's not the end of the world I promise! Your relationship is worth so much more than a post!


#2 : Keep the fighting off of the internet!

I can't tell you how many times I've seen couples argue online. It's embarrassing and it gives everyone on the outside a chance to get into your business, and that is one thing you definitely do not want! It looks childish when you argue online, because you can definitely keep that to yourself and deal with the situation like an adult offline. Trust me, it gets kind of awkward when outsiders know all of your business!


#3 : Don't believe everything that you see online!

You can not compare your boyfriend/girlfriend to a twitter post or as we all know it as "relationship goals." You don't know what that couple had to do to make it to where they are today! You don't know what's really going on behind closed doors! Don't be depressed because your boyfriend hasn't bought you a Pandora ring. Be patient and make sure you're in a committed relationship before you even start to worry about things like that.


#4 Talk in person!

Communication is very important in a relationship. Try to talk in person to avoid confusion and further arguments from occurring!


#5 Be patient!

I know you've heard the saying, "good things come to those who wait." Don't think that you'll be instantly showered with gifts instantly in a relationship. Social media does a great job with giving people false hope. Don't get caught in the trap!

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.
