If you're anything like me, you watch the Olympics to stay updated on the different competitions -- swimming, gymnastics, diving -- but you really pay attention to the competitors and their quirky habits, and even more to the memes that surface afterwards. Michael Phelps made a hysterical but terrifying face before his 200-meter butterfly semi-finals after some pre-race shenanigans with his rival, Chad Le Clos. Naturally, the internet loved it and created the #PhelpsFace hashtag that has taken the world by storm. Here are 15 of the most relatable memes using the #PhelpsFace:

1. When Frank Ocean still hasn't come out with a new album.

2. When they ask you to insert your chip after you already swiped your card.

3. When 23 gold metals, three silver metals, and three bronze metals ain't enough.

4. When you almost caught that rare Pokémon but your phone dies.

5. When they don't have your size in that one pair of shoes you wanted.

6. When your dentist tells you to floss more.

7. When they tell you guac is an extra $1.

8. When all your friends glowed up but you stayed the same.

9. When your mom says no phones at dinner but you're just trying to catch Pikáchu across the table.

10. When people ask you why you're single.

11. When your hot friend complains about being ugly.

12. When you're the only one of your friends who's on a diet and they want to go out to eat.

13. When everyone is in a serious relationship and you're over here like:

14. When you know the #PhelpsFace memes are going to take over all your social media.

15. When Michael Phelps reads this article.

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.
