To The Guys Who Let Girls Spend The Night When Their Place Is A Disaster, You Are Our Worst Nightmare

The roughest of all living conditions.

When you date in high school, you never have to deal with the whole "going over to a guy's house" because he still lives with his parents. However, once you get into college and those boys move out, they literally live like feral cats.

Now the living situation can vary depending on the guy.

For instance, if he's in college, you first have to deal with the dorm room phase. Not only does it suck that he has roommates, but a roommate that sleeps in the same room as him. This living situation is a breeding ground for mess. Upwards of six guys all in one confined space is possibly the worst thing on the planet, not to mention having to sleep in a twin-sized bed.

The next type of college living situation that is easily the worst is a fraternity house. So rather than having six guys in one living space, you have upwards of 40. In my experience, this one is the most borderline traumatic. We're talking communal bathrooms, sometimes with no toilet paper, having to use dawn dish soap to wash your hands, or better yet not being able to wash your hands at all. There are things growing on the walls, trash absolutely everywhere, and not to mention another living situation that involves a roommate.

The final boss for hellish guy living situations is The Apartment. I capitalize this because it's the final tier of disgusting living conditions for guys because once they're 25 and up they are usually married, or have careers so they can afford a house.

Their beds usually have one throw blanket, one dingy pillow, and literally have the bare minimum in the apartment to live. Not to mention being absolutely confused on how to get there. The directions they give you are possibly the vaguest directions ever.

I literally don't even know how men survive their twenties.

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.
