10 Reasons Why Massachusetts Is The Best Place To Grow Up

1. You know that not everyone in Massachusetts fails to pronounce their R’s.

People who were born in Boston have very strong accents, but that really does not mean everyone does. How are you? =” Hahwahya?”

2. Dunkin or Dunks

when you live in Massachusetts nobody really says the entire name “Dunkin' Donuts.”

3. When people say they are from Boston when they are truly not.

“Boston is pretty cool, I live like 20 minutes from the city." That really does not mean you are from Boston.

4. Jay-Walking

So you need to cross a street in the city, why should you wait for the signal? That would be a waste of time, and you know the cars aren’t going to hit you if you time it correctly. So you take a lot of caution and start walking forward and holding your breath in.

5. Snow

During the winter season the children always love to play in the snow. The adults never really like the winter session for them, it means more cleaning up the snow in the cold.

6. Cape Cod

Every summer people always say “ I am going to the Cape, do you want to come with me?”

7. Tom Brady

The majority of the people who live in Massachusetts have a crush on Tom Brady because he is really handsome.

8. You have been to the Museum of Science, Museum of Fine Arts, and the Children's Museum all on field trips or maybe you bored.

You weren't a kid growing up in MA if you didn't going to the Children's Museum...

9. Sports

Sports are very important to everyone who live in Massachusetts. Whether it be the Bruins, Red Sox, or Patriots, everyone shows love to their favorite New England teams.

10. Public Transportation

At least once in your lifetime in Mass you have had to take the train or the bus. Especially since it less expensive than using a car!

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.
