To the girl that is always giving second chances. You are always giving people the benefit of the doubt. You want to believe that they are this amazing person and that they would never do anything to discredit your opinion of them.

You see the best in people. You believe everyone has a kind heart even if they do not show it. Sometimes this get's you into trouble.

People prove you wrong. You realize they are taking advantage of your kindness. Reading this you already are thinking of that person who you gave more chances than they ever deserved. You gave them a chance after they did you wrong.

The second chance became the third, then the fourth. You have people ask you why you do it. Why do you put up with them?

And you start to wonder yourself. You start thinking to yourself that being so generous with chances is a bad thing. But I’m here to tell you it is not. You are constantly going out on a whim for people, only for them to disappoint you.

You start to think that maybe it is you. Maybe you have too high of expectations. Maybe you did not know someone as well as you thought you did. But it is not you.

Do not let anyone tell you that your kindness is your weakness.

Your kindness does not make you weak. Your kindness does not make you a pushover. Because it’s a strength. Your kindness makes you open to the world. Your kindness makes you genuine. Many people don’t see that but one of these days it is going change your life, so be ready.

You will start to see that the people you give one too many chances to become fewer as the days go. The ones that are in your life for the long haul will not need second and third chances.

They will not take advantage of your kindness. They will see your kindness for the strength it is and they will respect you for it.

So do not get down or discouraged when people prove you wrong. Do not let others tell you to stop giving chances. Do not ever stop giving chances.

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.
