15 Thoughts Fast Walkers Have When They’re Stuck Behind Slow Walkers
Owen J. Fitzpatrick

You’re briskly walking with a purpose toward your destination, proud that you might actually arrive early, when the epitome of a Monday appears before you— the slow walker.

1. This is not the time or the place for you to take a leisure stroll!

2. There are two imaginary lanes, fast and slow, and you are in the middle of both. GET OVER!

3. Universe, what did I do to deserve this?!

4. I walk like someone with a purpose. You need to get one!

5. I have places to be!

6. How long do I have to hover behind you before you sense my urgency?

7. Why are all four of you taking up the sidewalk? Part the waters!

8. *Obscenities galore*

9. I have long legs. I need to stride not shuffle! Look alive!

10. I’m at least a foot shorter than you and I can move faster than this!

11. Do I need to light a fire under your *ss?

12. Maybe if I step on their heels they’ll get the hint…

13. Take your swag somewhere else and walk at a normal pace like the rest of us.

14. Ain’t nobody got time for this!

15. There’s a special place in Hell for people like you.


If you are an example of one of the aforementioned and soon-to-be Hell dwellers who lack a purpose, destination, or capability of walking at a speed over 0.5 mph, please kindly consider those behind you, who desperately want to get where they’re going.

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.
