If you are a student in any kind during the summer, you have only one thing in mind. Having fun in the summer sun. Sure, summer is a time for no school and less stress, but once we get older, we come to realize that there isn't much you can do without money. The mullah. The green leaves. You get the picture, right? Well, something we could do is get a job, but how long does that take? A few days to weeks really. Even to just get an interview. Jobs can be hard to come around, but that doesn't mean you are out of luck. There are other ways to earn money during the summer. Like these:

1. Selling items at a garage sale or pawn shop.

There will be a time where we outgrow our things. Shirts, pants, toys, books, and more are easily disregarded as we age. Instead of leaving all of those in your closet, why not host a garage sale or pawn it off to another shop? There is a sure fire way that you will get money for your items in one way or another.

Speaking on which, if you have textbooks that you are not going to use anymore and they are just sitting in your room, sell them. They could be put to better use rather than just sitting in your room collecting dust.

2. Create something.

This category can pertain to a lot of things. You could create, pastries, clothes, jewelry, crafts, and much more. Honestly, this is my favorite category. There is so much to do in the creative world. You could write a blog and create revenue. You could sell your food at a farmer's market. The possibilities are endless.

3. Put on an act.

This idea is not seen as often, but you know those people who perform on the streets? Yup. Those guys. Very cool right? Maybe try performing at a local farmer's market or something? Somewhere where you could earn money by showing off your talents.

4. Tutor.

Another idea is being a tutor. Sure, school is out for the summer, but there is still summer school, colleges, and getting ready for the next year, to be done. It's not too late to teach a person something that could help them in the next grade or help them figure out a problem they had been stuck on for a while now. Tutoring is a great source of money while staying up to date with the latest knowledge.

5. Complete an online survey.

Sometimes businesses will offer a free survey to take at home in order to win a lot of money. There's no pain in trying, right?

6. Blog.

This one takes a lot of time and effort. It requires a long time in order to produce revenue, but if you have the patience and time for it. Go right ahead!

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.
