How To Find The Motivation To Go To Class

This seems to be a problem that hits most college students around the beginning of second semester. Perhaps, it is because spring is in the air, and soon the snow will be nothing more than a disturbing and distant memory. Not to mention that Spring break is right around the corner!

Or, it could have no reasoning behind it at all, sometimes there are just times where as hard as you try you honestly cannot make yourself get up and face the day. You can be one of the most studious people around, but this can truly affect anybody. Maybe it's the winter blues hitting you a little harder than you had anticipated, or maybe it is simply you have lost your motivation. Either way here are a few tips for you to find yourself back on track.

A couple ways you can find your way back to a more positive and motivated class-attending lifestyle is by completing some of the following: writing three things you are grateful for everyday, journaling about your days and the positive things you encounter, exercising, dancing, meditation (yoga, deep breathing exercises, etc.), and random acts of kindness.

Honestly, just find the little things throughout your days that make you smile and focus on those moments. They will get you through the blues and help you get back on your feet and back in class!

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.
