The Steps After the Georgia Primary:

The Georgia Primary was on May 22nd and the results are in. Phase one of the 2018 Midterm elections are over, unless you have a runoff you are following. Keep these things in mind and ride the wave to the polls in November!

1) July 24th – Runoff Election

Mark your calendar if you are voting in the runoff election. There is round two for the Republican Primary between Casey Cagle and Brian Kemp for Governor. As well as for Lieutenant Governor for the Republicans between David Shafer and Geoff Duncan. Check your district and see if there are any other runoffs you need to be paying attention too.

2) All the time in between

Use this time to get involved with local elections or volunteer for the state-wide campaigns. If you are not sure how to get involved find the candidates on Facebook and reach out to them. Any body that made it through round one is buckling down for the rest of the race and they need you. At this point, local political parties are able to endorse candidates so pay attention. A candidate you are interested in following is traveling and speaking at different events. You have the opportunity to meet them so take advantage of this.

3) Register to Vote: by October 9th

CAN YOU HEAR ME? If you were unable to vote in the primary because you didn’t register in time you have another shot. AND it is free. No excuses people. October 9th is the date you must register by (if you are not already registered) so that you can vote in November.

4) November 10th - Midterm Election Day

This is the big day. Know who you are voting for before you go by checking the ballot online and don’t miss. But that is the last day you can vote. MEANING that you can vote early. Crazy right?

Tune in to what is going on around you!

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.
