Freshman Year of College: 'New Girl' Edition

I don't watch much TV, but thanks to Netflix I am able to watch TV shows anytime and anywhere. One TV show that I have spent hours and hours watching is the TV show, "New Girl" and have found it to feature relatable characters and moments that accurately summarize my freshman year of college. This is a summary of my freshman year of college with the help of "New Girl" gifs.

1. First of all, making the decision of where to attend college was incredibly difficult.

2. Then I finally made up my mind on where I wanted to attend college.

When it came time to move in, I was completely unsure of what to expect. Was I going to make any friends? Join any clubs or organizations? Was it going to be boring? Or too much fun? Were the classes going to be hard?

3. I met my roommate and we discussed the necessary roommate things: boundaries, habits, and so on.

4. Then the year went on.

It was full of a lot of days and nights spent in the library and a lot of money spent on coffee.

5. But, it was also full of a lot of fun.

6. Just kidding, parents, but college isn’t the best four years of your life for nothing.

The year was also full of a lot of learning how to be an adult.

7. I did my own laundry, made and went to my own appointments, and navigated through the adult world.

The year also involved a lot of self-discovering and learning who I am and who I want to be.

8. It was full of a lot of ups; including meeting awesome new people, joining fun clubs and organizations, and creating memories I'll never forget.

9. And of course some downs, including hard classes, the occasional illness, and the bouts of being homesick.

10. Somehow, I made it through the hardest tests and classes I’ve ever taken.

11. But overall, I wouldn’t change anything about my freshman year of college.

I met so many wonderful people who will certainly be lifelong friends.

12. I'm going to miss the crazy adventures I had, but will enjoy retelling the countless stories and memories I have from this year.

13. Saying goodbye to everyone who’s made this year so great is going to be so difficult.

14. Freshman year ending is entirely bittersweet, but I look forward to the next year and all of the future memories to be made.

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.
