There comes a point where you have had enough.The only thing you have left to do is break down. You see a full fled basket case of tears, with your makeup running black and long, down your face. The only thing you have left are arms holding you at your weakest. It is those moments you turn to someone you might not usually, and you just tell them everything and they are there for you.

That is rock bottom. It is when you have kept it together way too long. Sometimes you see it as weakness, but I see it as you have been strong for too long.

It is okay not to be okay sometimes. It is in your moments. You are at your worst, the people who matter come forward and save you from yourself.

Thank you for loving me at my worst.

I have a tough time accepting myself in those moments. I am not the person I usually am, but even then you accept me. Even then, you love me.

Thank you for reminding of who I am.

You do not let me at my worst, replace all the good I have done before that. You define me by the better moments, not the bad stuff.

Thank you for helping me to become better.

You have walked with me, helping me to learn. You have helped me to grow. You want better for me. Even if at first, that means not being at all okay. Sometimes before you can become better, you have to be worse.

Thank you for walking with me.

People choose to stay in our lives. I value that you’ve made that choice every day. Even if I stumbled a bit. When I am at my worst, I struggle to walk a straight line. It is a whole lot easier when we have friends who help guide us in the right direction.

Thank you for reminding me who I am.

For the moments you told me, I’m better than whatever it is that broke me.You do not define me by my mistakes. You forgive me always.

Thank you for picking me up.

You dusted me off and reminded me to try. You were there to tell me that today is a new day.

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.
