1. You are SO friendly.

Even to total strangers. What's wrong with wanting to say hello?

2. You drink "pop".

via GIPHY

And whatever everyone else is drinking is just wrong.

3. Chili every season.

Skyline Chili is completely acceptable for every occasion and every day of the year

4. You've used the heat/AC in the same day.

Yes, I know it's summer, but it was 45 degrees morning and 77 this afternoon.

5. You have to describe your hometown by how many minutes away it is from Indianapolis.

"I'm about an hour southeast. Connersville, you've probably never heard of it."

6. Peyton Manning is a god.

via GIPHY

AND he didn't want to leave the Colts. Just saying.

7. "Cow tipping" is real and you've probably done it

via GIPHY

No shame in our game.

8. You go "creekin'"

via GIPHY

How are we the only ones that call it that?

9. The entire state of Kentucky SUCKS

via GIPHY

And we don't really know why. But trust us on this one.

10. If you're corn isn't knee high by the Fourth of July, you're in trouble.

I don't make the rules.

11. You've driven to Ohio for a Sunday beer run.

Indiana does not sell alcohol on Sundays by law. But the Ohio border is 15 minutes from us and we ain't got nothing else to do.

12. You know "Last Dance With Mary Jane" by Tom Petty by heart.

And you play it all the time. Because "she grew up in and Indiana town" and SO DID YOU BY GOD.

13. Walmart is sold out of bread, eggs and milk before every storm.

You can never be too safe.

14. The fair is actually a town show-out.

via GIPHY

Anyone who is anyone will be there.

15. You are from the Midwest. NOT the North.

Don't fight me on this.

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.
