Fingerprints are an "impression made on the surface of somebody’s fingertip, especially used for identifying individuals from the unique pattern of whorls and lines." Everybody in the world has different fingerprints and no two are the same. Just like fingerprints, each person in this world has a different answer to what brings meaning to his or her life. However, we all have a fingerprint and we all have something to be passionate about, even if they are different.The thought of loving others, loving yourself, as well as being loved, in return brings meaning and happiness to my life. The love that people have for one another amazes me. The love between a family, mother and her child, siblings, friends, or even your soul mate is a relationship filled with passion. A mother has so much love for her child that she would do anything in her power to keep her child safe, even if it means putting her own life at risk. Friends who love each other would go to the ends of the earth to see that person happy. Somebody who loves themselves accepts their flaws and doesn’t depend on anybody else for their happiness. The love between two soul mates is such a beautiful thing; it is like two magnets being pulled together. They are consumed with so much love for each other that they want to spend the rest of their lives with that person “for better or for worse, through sickness and through health.” Everybody has flaws and imperfections, nobody is perfect, but somebody falls in love with that person and loves all of their flaws and imperfections. When somebody’s happiness is your happiness, that is love. Showing love towards others, being loved in return, and loving myself for who I am gives my life meaning.

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.
