You are worth it.

To the Girl Who Never Feels Like She's Enough
Like Success

We've all been there. We are going about our normal lives feeling confident as ever until that one thing appears that makes everything you've ever believed in crumble. That thing is called self doubt and it's capable of crippling even the strongest person.

It can be anything. A bad grade, a snobby friend, a rude comment, a boy.

These things sneak into our lives and then suddenly we feel like we are never going to be good enough. It's hard. It's really hard, and we walk around with this feeling every day. The words "you can't do that" or "he's too good for you" repeats in your head over and over. You don't think you are beautiful or smart anymore. This isn't something that goes away,

To every girl who has felt these insecurities, let me tell you that you are good enough and you are not alone. Do not let these fears and doubts become your undoing, although I know how hard that is. Do not waste your precious time and effort trying to put together broken glass that is too far gone.

Remember that if a boy ever makes you feel small, he is the one who is not good enough.

Remember that grades do not control you or define the quality person that you are.

Remember that every rude comment is just someone else's insecurities and they should not control you.

Remember that you are beautiful and strong and don't need anyone to make you feel that way. Never question your self worth because you are good enough. Try to surround yourself in positivity and get rid of any negative. Life is short. You should not spend it on little worries and self doubt. Stop worrying about what people think about you and focus on yourself. ou deserve that much.

Sincerely,

A girl who knows what it's like to feel like she's not good enough

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.
