1. You're really excited for all of your classes

The night before classes started, you couldn't sleep you were so excited. All you ended up doing was daydreaming about that first day and how well you would perform in your classes this semester.

2. You read your first syllabus

The first morning of class you took one look at the first syllabus and noticed you already had like 100 pages of reading due by the next class. Okay, maybe it was only like 40 pages, but it felt like 100.

3. Your friends were already convincing you to make bad decisions

"Don't worry" they said, "we will be back by midnight," they said...

4. There are so many attractive people you want to talk to

The moment you walk on campus you see this super attractive person and all you want to do is impress them with your charm and good looks.

5. It's only halfway through the week and your semester is already headed downhill

Homework, internships, and a social life?

6. You already turned in your first assignment of the semester

You know that it was a solid piece of work because you spent a good hour or two on it in the library.

7. You already slept through your alarm and were late to class

But you oversleeping has nothing to do with the fact that you were out all night... Not at all.

8. Your professor handed back that first assignment and it definitely wasn't an A++++

So much for spending all that time on the assignment for nothing

9. The week isn't even over and you and your buddies are running away from your responsibilities

We swore this year was going to be different. But, lets face it: once a procrastinator, always a procrastinator.

10. By the end of the week, you might be a little.. Fragile

You kinda want to go home to see your pets and sleep in, and since you can't do that you're kinda on edge.

10. Regardless, you're still excited for the year to come

It's almost like christmas day, but instead of presents and candy, we have term papers and tests!

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.
