18 Signs That Winter Is Coming, As Told By "Game Of Thrones"

As the Long Summer draw to a close, you feel that cool wind sting your cheek and realize something that "Game Of Thrones" has been trying to tell you for five seasons: winter is coming. Besides having every single character tell you this fact at least three times an episode, there are other signs to let you know that winter is on its way.

1. You can no longer tell if it's 5 p.m. or midnight when you look outside.

.

2. Christmas music is everywhere.

3. Flavored Dunkin Donuts hot chocolate.

I'm looking at you, salted caramel.

4. You you watch the temperature on the thermometer slowly drop.

5. And you come to terms with the fact that you're inevitably going to die every time you leave the house without proper layers.

6. You whip out that second blanket on your bed.

7. ABC Family's "25 Days of Christmas" starts.

Or the countdown to the "25 Days of Christmas." You can't forget the countdown.

8. Which includes claymation.

9. And "Harry Potter" marathons?

Not complaining.

10. The wind.

Complaining.

11. Someone actually suggests that it's going to snow soon.

12. But you even start to think that Snow might not be a bad thing.

A Snow day or two looks pretty good right now.

14. And you only want to wear sweatpants and curl up by a fire in a cocoon.


15. You're starting to feel that winter weight creep up on you as you lose motivation to work out.

Thanksgiving didn't help, either.

16. The end of the semester is coming, too, and you realize that you don't know anything.

17. And your parents ask you what you want for Christmas, and you realize that you have absolutely no idea what you're doing in the presents/Christmas shopping department, either.

You should probably get on that.

18. But a part of you gets ridiculously excited for the upcoming season, despite the weather.

There's family and binge watching and snuggling. What else do you want?

19. And finally, you know that winter is coming because people keep telling you that winter is coming.

Just in case you missed the memo.

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.
