I've been writing for Odyssey for about three months now, and I am really really enjoying it. I've recently been trying to recruit more content creators, so I've had a lot of time to reflect on the reasons why one would want to write for Odyssey. I decided to put together a list of reasons as to why you should write for Odyssey and why I write for Odyssey. Here they are:

1. Free speech

Odyssey is a platform created to give writers a voice about whatever they want. You have the ability to write about whatever you want with whatever opinion you want. You aren't forced or told to write about certain things.

2. It's a good opportunity

If you want to be a writer, this is the perfect opportunity for you to get some good experience. Whenever you're trying to get a job, "content creator for The Odyssey" looks really good on a resume.

3. It's good writing practice

Writing new and different articles every week and publishing them to share your writing with the public is good practice. Every week you get to write about something new; new ideas, new style of writing, etc. This is really good practice for writers to learn how to better their writing every single week.

4. This is a platform to use your voice

Odyssey is a good platform to use your voice in positive ways. You can help people by putting your thoughts and experiences out there. You can inspire and actually make a difference and that's the greatest feeling in the world.

5. It will prepare you for any future writing field

Odyssey has deadlines which is something that will absolutely always occur in a writing industry. This prepares you to reach and follow deadlines in a sometimes quick manner while still writing great content.

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.
