Ah, it's that time again. Back in Orono for second semester.

How can you tell for sure?

1.You saw an unreal amount of people wipe out on campus.

2. You missed your first class of the semester.

3. You definitely went to OHOP before the bookstore.

4. You already skipped a class because of parking.

5. You forgot a writing utensil and notebook but you have a large coffee in hand.

6. Apparently you were supposed to have already reviewed the syllabus so you're just sitting in the middle of a full blown lecture like:

7. Traffic is ridiculous because everyone is actually trying to go to class.

8. You still haven't gotten your books.

9. You were one of the poor souls who fell on campus.

10. You caved and wore sweatpants within the first two days.

11. You came back to find that Yes on 4 increased wings at the Roost by 10 cents and you are outraged.

12. The Rec was so packed that you went home and got stressed over 8 assignments so you ordered takeout and started a new Netflix series instead.

Welcome back, everybody.

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.
