The Thoughts You Have The Week Leading Up To Summer
outboardmotoroilblog.com

It’s April, and that means summer is right around the corner! You’ve pulled out your shorts and flip-flops, figured out the perfect road trip, and are ready to soak up some vitamin sea. The only thing between you and summery perfection… that last week of classes. These are thoughts we all have daily until we finally reach freedom.

1. "I can't stop daydreaming."

The weather is perfect and you keep forgetting you’re in class.

2. "That summer smell is killing me."

The world has that intoxicating scent of summer.

3. "I have so many road trip plans!"

You've already started planning all the awesome things you are going to do this summer.

4. "I'm going to have to get a job."

You realize all these awesome adventures cost money and remember you’re going to need a summer job.

5. "But nothing can destroy my sunny positivity."

Because SUMMER!

6. "We're still in school."

Oh wait, you still have to go through finals week.

7. "One. More. Week."

It’s only one week, and you’re certain you can push through this.

8. "Motivation is key."

Two minutes into studying, and you’re certain you have no hope. You have no focus, motivation, or any of those other things that will lead you to success.

9. "I just need some fresh air."

So you try to study outside with a buddy. That doesn’t work for very long either.

10. "I made it last year, and I can do it again."

Somehow, you rally and charge through your finals and 7 a.m. alarms.

We can do this. Summer is almost ours.

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.
