What Would They Say About Me?
Harley Kearney

I have always wondered what my print would look like on the world. How would I be remembered? Would my friends and family miss me? Would they tell strangers about the crazy memories we shared? Or would they tell them about my good heart and how I would give my shirt off my back just to help someone in need? I hope that they will go to strangers and tell them how I tried to change the world. The reason why I joined the army. Tell them about how I would sleep for hours and be cranky waking up. That you can try to wake me up four times and I will still fall back to sleep. Or how I would laugh with my best friend Emily for hours on end just because of something stupid I did.

I wonder if you will tell them about my dreams of being in the SVU and flying in helicopters. How I will change my job career seven times and drove you crazy, but yet I still stuck with psychology and the Army. Will you tell them about my procrastination? Will you tell the stranger about getting my heartbroken yet I still will find the good in people. Make sure you tell them about my work ethic and how I will make sure the job gets done no matter the obstacles that pop up. I hope you tell them about my smile because it is KILLER and my eyes they will win over anyone's heart. Most importantly tell them about the love I gave and the dreams I had and how I wanted to make an impact in this whole scary world.

If I have kids tell them how I was growing up, tell them every memory you have of me, tell them how much I wanted them and how much I loved them. Tell them how much I care about them, tell them everything you can think of, tell about my parents, my friends. I woke up one day and my dad was gone, I woke up and my two best friends were never coming back. I want to hear the stories of my father. How I have his eyes, his smile, his hair, I want to hear about the stories of him growing up. People ask about my tattoos, and the stories come out. I tell the strangers about you dad, and about you Colton. I tell them about the love you gave me, how you stayed up till 4 am to talk to me, I tell them about the love I have for you. That you are my best friend and you are always here. So to my friends and family tell the strangers about me.

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.
