1. Oh, this nice

first, you're just enjoying your last day of relaxation, soaking up the final precious moments of freedom while you can, right?

2. Uh Oh

Then reality hits. I mean, you knew that school starts tomorrow, but now you really, truly know that school is starting tomorrow.

3. Maybe if I ignore it, it will go away

Time to repress reality and continue relaxing for a couple more hours! Unfortunately, ignoring the fact that school begins tomorrow won't actually keep it from happening.

4. My relaxation is TAINTED

Except now that you've remembered that school is starting tomorrow, relaxing doesn't exactly have the same happiness to it. It's been tainted with the knowledge that these are your last few hours of freedom, and they're slowly slipping through your hands.

5. Fine, time to face the music

Finally, you decide to just embrace the fleeting quality of spring breaks and accept the fact that school begins tomorrow. After denying it for so long, this stage may be difficult to go through. Reality hits hard.

6. I'm not prepared!!

You've just now realized that you are in NO WAY prepared for tomorrow. Mentally, physically, academically... And speaking of academically:

7. Shoot, I had homework

You had a whole week to work on your homework. You swore to yourself you'd finish it all the first few days of spring break. Or, even better, you'd actually work on that 10-page essay the way teachers recommend, with a little bit accomplished each day. But did you actually do that? No, you didn't, did you? And now you're in the academic sprint of shame.

8. When's the next break?

Halfway through homework, you run out of steam and scour your school's academic calendar for a hint of hope. If you're lucky, you'll get at least a 3-day weekend for Easter. If you're not, say sayanara to scuba-diving until summer!

9. I can do this

In the absence of upcoming breaks, you desperately try to enact some positive self-talk, convincing yourself that you can do this. You can finish a week's worth of homework in one evening! You can make it until summer without another break! You can finish this semester with a 4.0! You can!

And finally...

10. I need another spring break

After you've finished your homework, moved back into your dorm, picked out your outfit for tomorrow, and done anything else you need to do to prepare for the day ahead, you're exhausted. Who can blame you for needing another break?

Good luck to everyone heading back to school after a much-needed spring break! Remember: you CAN do this!

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.
