10 Reasons You May Be An Over Thinker, And You're Probably Overthinking These Reasons, Too
Aspen Graham

Have you ever been in a situation where a very drastic thing has happened to you? Maybe that guy you're crushing on asked you for a pencil or maybe your BFF didn't offer you a sip of her Mocha Frappuccino Latte with almond milk and two pumps of caramel.

If any of these things have happened to you, people have probably told you to just stop overthinking it after you confide in them.

Below are 10 ways you may actually be an over thinker.

1. You'll contemplate a single text for hours.

Your crush sends you a vague "Hey" and your mind goes into overdrive. "He still has my number? Does he need help with homework? Is he just bored?" The world may never know.

2. You can't sit in a public place without feeling every eye on you.

Eyes, eyes, they're everywhere!

3. When typing anything you'll rewrite it 8 times.

4. ....and then back out of sending it.

5. Procrastination is your middle name.

You overthink a project for so long that life becomes meaningless and your bed is the only thing that makes sense.

6. Any relationship feels like a maze...specifically the one in The Shining.

Do they actually love you? Is this a Con into kidnapping you and selling you for two goats and bucket of lard? Maybe your whole life is really a dream and you'll wake up from it if you think about it hard enough.

7. You never make any executive group decisions and have to end up eating gluten-free, vegan, eggplant pizza.

8. Feelings are like feral cats...very, very bad.

You'll swat them away at the first sign of danger. Every time.

9. You have the confidence level of a barnacle.

There's a reason barnacles hide on the underbellies of whales.

10. When you do make up your mind, nobody listens.

This is the price you pay for #7. Eggplant pizza, my friend.

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.
