Thanks to Pinterest, I have every aspect of my wedding covered.

Like most college students, I don’t plan ahead. Whether it’s a trip for spring break, a big project, or something as simple as what I’m going to have for dinner.

However, the one thing that I defy the odds with is that I have my entire wedding planned.

And yes, you read that right.

I’m a freshman in college, 19 years old, I don’t know whether I’m going to have the chicken or the beef flavored ramen for dinner, but I know exactly what song will be played five minutes into the reception.

This all started when my sister got engaged and began to plan her wedding, and it was only natural that I began to plan mine.

I would be looking at dresses for her and just happen to see one that I know I’d look bomb in, and that’s how 167 wedding dresses got saved on my Pinterest page. Or I’d be searching wedding bands to see what would good with her engagement ring, being the sweet sister I am, and now I have 78 rings picked out.

It’s fine. I’m not addicted or anything.

Then, she started looking at venues and then that’s when things really got fun.

I’ve got eight places picked out—in North Carolina—that have places outside for the ceremony, and places inside for the reception. They also have their own catering companies for the food. So, I was all set.

And it doesn't stop there.

I’ve spent nearly three hours picking out songs for the father-daughter dance, the first dance as husband and wife, and the last song of the night. I know who is going to be my maid of honor and each of my bridesmaids. And I have all of the colors picked out.

Like I said, I am not addicted.

So, when the time finally comes for that lucky guy to pop the question, I only have one thing to say other than “yes,” and that is:

You are welcome for planning our wedding.

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.

Dealing with the inevitable realities of college life.

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.
