So it's summertime. Maybe you're a current Tar Heel. Or a future Tar Heel. Or even a Tar Heel alum. Whatever your case may be, we're all looking for new things for us to add to our wardrobe to show off some Tar Heel pride. No matter if you were Tar Heel born or Tar Heel bred, you can show off your school spirit with these awesome items!

1. Essie Nail Polish in "Bikini So Teeny"

After a long search and approximately 12 different shades of light blue nail polish later, the verdict is in: Essie's "Bikini So Teeny" is the PERFECT shade of Carolina blue. This nail polish has been tried and proven true by the ladies of UNC-Chapel Hill's Odyssey team.

2. White Vans or Converse High Tops

Every girl you know has these and they're everywhere. These shoes are comfortable, trendy, and easy to put on in the morning when you're rushing to catch the bus to your 8a.m. class.

3. 2017 Men's Basketball National Championship T-Shirt

It's a workout shirt, pajama shirt, and even a "wear to class with norts" shirt. Every Carolina girl has one and if she doesn't have this exact one, she has a Final Four T-Shirt.

4. UNC Lanyard, Keychain, or Key Fob

A majority of students have one of these. They're super convenient! After one week of keeping my keys on a lanyard — you could tell I was obviously a First Year with no clue that you DON'T wear your keys around your neck — I started to use my lanyard to hold all of the free buttons I accumulated from attending different Carolina events!

5. Carolina Blue Heels

I bought these for my high school graduation because: A) they were Carolina Blue and I was psyched to be a Tar Heel and B) they were on sale at DSW. Every time I've worn them on campus, I've received compliments and tend to get the questioned, "Where are those from!?" With these heels, you too can be the talk of the town with your Tar Heel pride.

These super cute ones are on sale at DSW right now!

6. UNC Logo Alex and Ani Bracelet

I get it, it's basic. But this was my favorite gift when I graduated high school (and still through my first year). And I got multiple. They're just so fun, simple and an easy score for a birthday gift for your roommate or friends!

7. UNC Vera Bradley Tote Bag

I love Vera Bradley. I have two of her duffel bags and received the large UNC tote for my birthday and it's amazing! I used it to carry a blanket to lay on at Polk Place while I did homework and later on during finals week it carried my notebooks, Macbook, chargers, bluebooks and other study materials to study sessions and final exams.

8. Carolina Blue Swimsuit

It's not quite Carolina blue, but I bought this Southern Tide swimsuit this summer and it's so cute and comfortable! I feel like seersucker should so count in this category, especially with how close the blue is to Carolina blue!

If you're online shopping this summer and looking for something new, these 8 things are waiting to join your closet!

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.
