Things That Are Only A Big Deal At Camp

In the heat of the summer when you haven't been in public in weeks, these situations seem like the end of the world. After having real human contact and actually closing the door to use the bathroom, you can reflect and notice how childish the drama was.

1. Who won Color War rope burn

2. Who specifically came up with the best line in the Alma Mater

3. Who had their first kiss with the same boy that six other girls in the same bunk had their first kiss with

4. Who got caught sneaking out

5. Where the best place is to hide contraband (cell phones, cough drops, etc)

6. Who brought the best old dance costumes for bunk unities

7. Which bunk got the counselor that was hooking up with the hottest male staff

8. Whose home friend ruined the outcome of the summer season of the Bachelor through a letter

9. Where the more crafty parents hid candy in care packages

10. Who made out with a younger boy

11. Who had the most vibrantly colored Sugar Lips tank tops

12. Who has to sleep on the top bunk

13. Who gets the shortest cubbies ("but those ones are wider," "she doesn't have as many clothes as me")

14. Who was the first pick in the league's draft

15. Who was playing in Color War varsity hockey vs who was only picked for A team hockey

16. Who decided it was a good idea to get a hickey the night before visiting day

17. Who brought the loudest portable speakers

18. That one girl that doesn't share her bathing suits

19. Sleeping next to the girl that "only comes back for the activities"

20. The proper disposal of sanitary products

21. When your best friend gets the last spot in the waterskiing elective and you have to find something else to do

22. Who had to leave after the first session for a family vacation

23. Who didn't get invited to whose Bat Mitzvah the school year before

24. When a Color War camper captain was on a power trip

25. Who could find the most creative act for the Talent Show

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.
