Dating culture these days is quite a beast. We're living in a world where we feel we shouldn't "catch feelings," we consider "Netflix and chill" a real date, and the walk of shame is the norm. If you're okay with this trend then continue doing you, but personally I'm over it. I don't think it's unacceptable for me to expect more from a guy I'm seeing. I'm interested in old dating culture, where the guy picks you up for dinner, and walks you to the door afterwards to be a gentleman, not because he thinks he'll get lucky. I'm interested in finding my Chuck Bass. I'm a HUGE Gossip Girl fan and there's no one who is more "relationship goals" than Chuck and Blair. If you're feeling in doubt that you'll ever find your Prince Charming or you feel like you're on the verge of settling for less than you deserve, continue reading. My hopes are that you'll be inspired to wait for someone who treats you like the Queen you are.

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.
