The Top 5 Best Summer Foods

With every changing season there are new foods that come into light. When the sun comes out and the temperature starts to creep up, there are certain foods that you just crave. Here are some of my personal favorite (and coolest) foods to eat during the hot summer days:

1. Watermelon

Watermelon is one of my favorite snacks on a hot summer's day. No matter the time of day, when you bite into a piece of watermelon, it just tastes like summer.

2. Ice Cream

Ice cream is eaten all year round. However, in my opinion, it tastes so much better on a hot summer day. With the millions of flavors out there, you can easily try a different flavor every time.

3. Salad

Summer is the time when fruits and vegetables are at their peak. Everything is so fresh and colorful. Personally, I love salads all year round, but the ingredients are definitely fresher in the summer. Try to incorporate as many colors as you can into your salad!

4. Anything at a BBQ

One of my all time favorite activities in the summer is having a BBQ. There is just something about a "summer cookout" that is so perfect. Grab some friends and a grill and just cook everything that you can think of, because it is bound to be delicious.

5. Corn

Corn is the type of food you can eat in so many ways. My personal favorite is on the cob. You can grill it, roast it, boil it, butter it, do pretty much anything to it, and it will still taste amazing. If you're into guacamole, you should definitely try roasted corn guac. For future reference, here's the recipe:

Happy eating!

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.
