The University of Georgia has a beautiful campus and provides students with many facilities to learn, collaborate, and study. As a freshman, one of my favorite parts of being a student at UGA is discovering all of the study areas that the University has to offer. Here is a list of my favorite study spots on campus.

5. The Tate Student Center

Better known as "Tate," the Tate Student center is a more social space, but the fourth floor is a great place to study. There are many comfortable seating areas, and the noise level is not too loud, or too quiet. It also has lots of options for food so that you can fit a study break in!

4. Science Library

Attached to the Boyd Graduate Research center, the Science Library is a good place to work on homework or hang-out between classes. There is a lot of chatter in this library, so it is probably not the best place to study. It is a good place to meet with friends and study as a group or work on a project. Large tables and whiteboards encourage collaborative work. Another perk of the Science Library is the Jittery Joe's right outside the door!

3. The Miller Learning Center

The MLC is a great place to study if you are planning study into the late hours of the night. Open twenty-four hours a day, each level of the MLC has different noise clearances that range from normal talking levels to dead silence. There are also study rooms equipped with whiteboards for group work. Not to mention there's also a Jittery Joe's to help fuel your late-night study sessions. All in all, the MLC provides a wide range of study areas that can suit almost anybody's needs.

2. The Law Library

Ok, I know what you're thinking. Why is an undergrad freshman going to the Law Library? My answer to that is: because it is amazing. The Law Library has lounge chairs that are essentially beds, it is almost impossible not to lay on them at first sight. There is a beautiful courtyard situated in the middle of the building with tables and chairs that are surrounded by trees, flower beds, and a beautiful fountain. It is a great place to study on sunny days. Nobody knows that you're not a law student, either (at least that's what I tell myself).

1. Main Library, Third Floor Reading Room

If you want silence and comfort, the Main Library's reading room on the third floor is for you. This study spot was my first discovery on campus. Unfortunately, no food or drinks are allowed in this room, but the large comfy chairs towards the back of the room make up for it. The face the windows that overlook the grassy area in front of the library. It is so silent in the reading room that you could hear a pin drop. It has a cozy ambiance that is more comfortable than the other study spaces I have listed. This study area definitely is at the top of my list for a reason.

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.
