Forever grateful for you.

A Thank You Letter To My Parents
Darcy Pacheco

Dear Mom & Dad,

Words cannot describe how appreciative I am to the both of you. I know that it may not be a sentiment that I often express, but I truly am. I would be lost without your guidance. You have been there for me whenever I have needed it and you continue to endlessly support me through my endeavors. It doesn't matter what time of day it is, I know I can always count on you.

Not everyone is as fortunate to have parents who are as incredible as you. Every day I consider it a blessing to have such loving parents who do nothing but sacrifice on my behalf for my own happiness.

You always put me ahead of your own needs, and I can't even keep track of the number of sacrifices you've made for me. I know that you always wanted to give me a life that was better than the ones you had growing up and, trust me, you have far surpassed that. Just know that none of the sacrifices you've made have gone unnoticed and I am forever grateful for all that you do.

The morals and values you have instilled in me from such a young age have shaped the person I have become today. I can say that I am a strong, confident, and independent woman and I owe it all to you. You have taught me the importance of being myself and always remembering where I come from, which is something I will never lose sight of.

Thank you so, so, so much for giving me the absolute world. I will never be able to repay you. You are two of the most important people in my life and I hope I make you proud to be your daughter.

Love,

Your Grateful Daughter

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.
