It's not that big of a deal.

I don't know about you, but I feel like I haven't even started this semester yet. It's going by so fast I keep forgetting what I've learned in my classes, and that's not good considering I've got midterms, and eventually finals. But I have nothing to worry about because I remember these x reasons why midterms aren't as stressful as we all make it out to be.

1. Your grade can still recover.

I mean, I failed my Computer Science midterm and still managed to drag my grade from the depths of hell to a C+. Try not to fail your midterm, but don't be worried if you do end up getting a bad grade. There is plenty of time to bring it up.

2. Your life goes on.

It is just a small part of your life. It's so minuscule to what you plan to do, it shouldn't even be a concern of yours. If you know the information, you know it. If not, work on it. It isn't the most important thing on your plate.

3. Still take it seriously.

Don't let a midterm stress you but don't let it mess you up either. If you have the time to study and the resources to do it there is no reason why you shouldn't pass.

4. Your professor is there for a reason, and so are the tutors. Utilize them.

You pay upwards of $18,000 for a food, housing, an education, and all the tutors and professor's time. If you aren't going to them you aren't using your money right.

5. This isn't the end.

At this point, we all know the midterm isn't as bad as the final. And between both of them are many more tests and quizzes. This is just a friendly reminder to stay on top of things, study hard, and don't let sleep deprivation rule you.

Good luck with your midterms!

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.
