It's time to start the second semester and if you struggled last fall it is time to recuperate and redeem yourself. In order to help you get organized and ready to conquer this semester, I devised a list of the top Apps to help you out.

1. Quizlet. The most incredible study tool around. You can create flashcards, practice them in a game and quiz yourself on the topics. You can even find some study sets that have already been created at your university to make life a little easier.

2. Spotify. If you're anything like me, music is one of your best friends and an essential studying tool. Spotify offers a student discount so you can get all the music you want with no ads, and offline listening for $4.99 a month. It might seem like a lot for some but for music addicts, it's a small price to pay for unlimited music.

3. ALL the Google Apps. Whether its Google Drive, Docs, Slides or Gmail, these apps are so helpful to have. You can have them to double check on class info or even finish up a paper on the go.

4. Blackboard. Even though it seems like only one of your classes actually utilizes blackboard, it is a nice app to have from time to time. You can quickly check the announcements for any last minute class information and even check your grades as soon as they are posted.

5. Pinterest. This app some in handy when you have a break in classes or time to kill. You can only refresh other social media so many times but with Pinterest, it is never ending. Find some new ways to organize things, some easy DIY's or just spend your time on it daydreaming.

6. Khan Academy. Another app to help you study, Khan Academy has about anything you need for any course you take. They have videos and practice questions to help you master any subject.

7. Amazon. Another app that offers a student discount that gives free two day shipping. This is a great app to have to check on orders and quickly order anything you need.

8. Your bank/ Mint. Having the app for your bank (if it is available) is helpful just to keep up on how much you have and how much you've saved. Along with this, Mint is a very useful tool that you can sink up with your bank accounts and use it to budget your money. It tracks what you spend your money on and allows you to set a budget on those top things you spend your money on.

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.
