The Voices In His Head

It is 12:03am. Your phone lights up on your night stand... "iMessage." It's him. HIM. But, then, you ask yourself: Tonight, which version of him will I be receiving?

Sure, we, as women, conclude all sorts of things about men; yet, we never analyze why. Believe it, or not, men have voices in their heads, too. What voices?, you may ask. Well, do these ring any bells?

1. HER.

Every man has his "her." You know, that girl that he listens to, no matter the circumstance, who he once loved, but wronged her (or, she wronged him); so, they stay around for one another, simply because... I, actually, do not know the answer. She does not want him, but she does not want anyone else to have him, so, therefore, you do not get to have him.

2. The Bros (who they insist on putting "before hoes")

First of all, we are not hoes; we are grown ass women. Now, that we have that straight, let's talk "bros": They, actually, can give pretty stand up advice, depending on their culture and circumstance, but they will always favor the girl, who treats their "boy" well. So, treat him well, and you will get the bros votes.

3. Society

Society is the voice in his head you should fear the most. Society will always tell him that there is someone better out there; the only trouble is, she is in the Michelob Ultra commercial, the cover ofVogue, and well... Megan Fox. Society will be your biggest enemy, as you fight the battle of voices in his head.

4. Momma

Though men retreat from their mothers on the first-day college, her voice never leaves their minds. "Open the door for her;" "call her back;" "remember, a smile can go a long way;" "be honest with her." All good advice, yes; let's just, hope he chooses to honor his Momma and not rebel against her stealthy advice.

5. Himself

At the end of the day, no one lies their head down on his pillow, but himself. So, only he knows how he truly feels; however, this will be the meekest voice.

Ladies, as you battle all of the voices in the room with you and "him", remember: You can love someone and not want to be with them. You can often love someone for all of the reasons they are not like you. You cannot love someone, who you wish to spend all of your time with. All anyone really wants is more: more vodka, more love, more laughter. More. And the more you ask of him, the more the voices in his head will crescendo. Tread carefully.

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.
