THE END IS HERE.

Not the end of the world... Its the end of Christmas Break. Which, for some is the end of the world. After a month out of school, we have to drag ourselves out of our warm beds, go into the freezing weather that some call the Tundra. You know who you are.

10) Saying goodbye to home cook meals.

Ah yes, the good food that doesn't come from the mysterious cafeteria and it actually comes from our lovely parents, which is delicious and how can we handle not having it anymore? See, here's the thing about a good home cook meal. You know what ingredients go into it: the five food groups along with love and caring. The ones where your stomach is happy, and so glad that you're not eating terrible food for a month. Lets just sit, reminisce on how much we're going to be missing that once we're back in our dorm rooms and home away from home.

9) Not seeing your family everyday.

Okay, this is basically like a Catch 22. On one hand, no more force talking about politics or any insane questions like 'has your love life changed?' No, it hasn't but thank you for reminding me that I'm single. On the other hand, you're going to miss those magic memories that makes you miss them and go back to up above, food. Also, them spoiling you? It's going to be a hard five-months. Also, saying goodbye to them and knowing that they're waiting for you back home? Even harder.

8) Not sleeping in.

We all know that everyone started to sleep in right after their last final. This place is a safe place, we can admit that we're going to miss sleeping in until noon or at least four in the afternoon. All warm in our beds, not wanting to leave them and just wanting to enjoy the cold weather by looking out at it.

8) No more Netflix-Binging.

....Who am I kidding? That's still going to be around by midterms, at least. There's always Spring Break too!

7) No more movie premieres.

See above. Nuff Said.

6) Bikini Season.

Why do we need to worry about our summer bodies during the winter? Granted, yes. We do want to get healthier, but come on. Do we really need to worry about our summer bodies right now?? When Valentine's Day is right around the corner and we're still snacking on Christmas candy? We can worry about that after Valentine's Day.

5) The Homework pile.

You know about this pile, you're aware of this pile, but do you really want to not do it and not graduate?

4) Telling everyone what you did over the break.

You get to hear amazing stories about your friends' breaks and be jealous of them, but when they ask you about yours, you don't want to admit that you didn't really see anyone over Christmas Break. Let's face it, we have to be social for five months, do we really want to be social over break?

3) Introducing yourselves to the class.

Okay, we know everyone. Especially if you're an English Major. You get to see everyone, each semester. Do we really need to introduce ourselves to the class? However, if we must say something interesting about ourselves, then I guess we will.

2) Trying to find time to hang out with friends.

Once the semester picks up, a lot of people lose contact with each other and just become this ghost whom most people talk or even hardly see. Also, making time for them. Its harder than most people think.

1) The Cold.

You should've known what number one was by the introduction. Shame, but that's okay! We have to go back into the coldest winters so far. Especially when it keeps snowing, snowing and snowing. We have to layer up, just to walk from one building to the next.

So like our fallen Princess once said.

This semester.

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.
