Waking Up From A Nap, As Told By Michael Scott
Wordpress

My daily routine involves a nap about 70 percent of the time. I love naps more than most things because it requires far less energy, socializing or effort. I’m being somewhat cynical but really, napping is great for tons of reasons. First, it revitalizes you. You wake up feeling refreshed and ready to take on the rest of the day. Napping is also stress relieving. It can clear your head and relax your nerves. Plus—and maybe this is just me—naps always seem to bring more restful sleep than going to bed at night because when you nap, you are so ready for it. As glorious as a mid-afternoon nap can be though, waking up is always such a disaster. Here’s how waking up from a nap feels, as told by Michael Scott from The Office.

You try to orient yourself back to reality, but you just can’t get it together.

You start questioning every life decision ever made.

And then there's that wave of extreme gratitude for life... for no reason.

You might have a few moments of extreme motivation...

...or a burst of energy...

...and then that moment when you just want to go back to sleep.

No, waking up from an amazing nap is not always fine. Know that you're not in your weird, post-nap hangover feelings alone.

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.
