Spring Breakerzzz

Yeah, we did and saw.

Spring Breakerzzz

My freshman year of college, I decided to go to California for Spring Break. The decision was made in like November and finalized in early February, weeks before break.

I was so pumped; me, my roommate, her ex roommate, and our Cali native friend, sunny bound for a whole week.

It wound up being three of us, but was still so much fun. In N Out, some good ole Authentic Mexican food, a mall trip, a beach trip, the Santa Monica pier, and two movie theatre experiences later, I could say I never wanted to leave.

Of course, we did, and my Sophomore year brought an adventure home, where I went to the dance club, took a trip to the town over to go shopping, and bummed around. It was pure magic.

So, this being my third year, my best friend and I decided to mix things up and go to Seattle. Not the typical sunny and 75 most Spring Breakers go too, but it was joy enough for us.

We rented a condo downtown and got an amazing experience. We ubered for the first time (whooo!) and bought city passes; these included discount tickets to places such as the space needle, the aquarium, and a harbor tour.

We tried a new restaurant, called Tacos Chuki's, and fell utterly in love. It was so authentic and felt like home. Oh, and us being faithful McDonald's employees had us searching the nearest Mickey D's. We experimented at three of them!

We also got piercings and went to a few movies. We're boring, we know.

But the best part of this Spring Break? Being bums! We work, study, do homework, and try to have as much of a social life as possible. Which mostly fails, but we try.

Cheers to a successful Spring Break and finishing the year stronger!

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.
