The best part about Winter and Christmas break when you're in college is coming home for a month. This break is better than high school because, unless you're taking a winter class, you probably have no homework and get to hang out (or work). Here are 10 thoughts you've probably had while home on break!

1. Will my summer job take me back for the month?

Going home for a month usually means you want to be busy and make money, but sometimes, finding a job for a month can be hard.

2. Am I going to have room for everything I am bringing back?

Going back after winter break is like moving in part 2. Somehow, you come back with double the stuff you left with.

3. Can I bring my pets back to school with me?

Is the "no pet" rule really a thing?

4. I miss my suitemates :(

Because they're the only people I can tolerate living with.

5. This isn't a frat basement?

*When the family party is actually lit*

6. How will I go back to eating dining hall food?

Two words: You. Can't.

7. This break isn't long enough!

*Prays for snow days so classes get canceled in the beginning*

8. I wonder what my school friends are doing.

Let's be real; they are Snapchatting "streaks" while still in bed at 12pm.

9. Can I take these left overs back to school?

*Looks up the capacity of a mini fridge and if it can support trays full of christmas leftovers*

10. There really is no place like home.

Yeah, school is great and all, but home is where family is and that is what makes it the best.

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.
