Most of the guys we meet end up being the complete opposite of what we expected. They're sweet in the beginning, and then they stop trying. The show, "New Girl" will take you through all 15 things that most guys do that we need to put an end to.

1. Grabbing onto girls as they walk by:

Unless I openly give you consent to grab my body as I pass by you, learn your place and never put your hand on a woman without asking for permission. Point blank.

2. Insult/putdown others in a "joking" matter:

Everyone has their insecurities and flaws that no one should point out. But, unfortunately, most of us have met those guys that believe it's okay to do so if it is a "joke." It's not.

3. Hating on cats/dogs/pets:

As a cat owner, I understand that some people prefer dogs, however, hearing a guy that I'm potentially interested in talk down about my cat is a major turn off. Check yourself.

4. Sending that "what you doing? ;)" text in the middle of the night:

Not quite sure why most mens' confidence boosts in the middle of the night, which leads to these iconic messages. This needs to stop! No one is going to get out of bed at two a.m. for you!

5. Using the worst pickup lines:

I will admit, some pickup lines could be funny and lead to a conversation. However, other cheesy line are just gross. For everyone's sake, just use a simple "hello."

6. Badmouth other men that do not enjoy beer:

If someone (especially other men) do not want to "enjoy" a cold beer with you, do not make them feel like they are less than you because they do not like the taste of your pee water!

7. Trying to convince girls in relationships to cheat:

I have heard many stories of men reaching out to girls via social media telling to cheat on them (even if they already claimed in a committed relationship). Seriously, guys? No beuno!

8. Clueless about their career path:

It is not attractive when a guy does not know what he wants to do with his future. Figure out your life and then give me a call! I am not here to mom you!

9. Refusing to do the "dating thing" in college:

Most guys have this attitude, but if two people like each other, than be together. Stop being scared of the word "couple" or "relationship." You are grown men in your 20's. Act like it.

10. Barely putting in effort to be friends with your girlfriend's friends:

The majority of women put in the effort to befriend the boyfriend's friends. And, yet, it doesn't seem to be expected from the boyfriend? If I'm putting in the effort, so should you.

11. Water down their feelings for others:

Quick tip: if you pretend to not be interested or care, than I'm going to leave and move on. Acting like you aren't into me, doesn't make me want you more. I'll just drop you.

12. Using their phones while you're talking:

Okay, maybe my long stories about my fights with my girlfriends aren't that exciting, but at least pretend to be listening! That's just rude!

13. Still act like children:

If you're a grown man, living on his own, and in his 20's, you should no longer have the same personality that you had when you were in middle school. And, yes, I can tell it's the same.

14. Act like the world revolves around them:

It's a common theme that men expect women to drop everything they are doing for them. Excuse me? I have a life and responsibilities too! And I'm sure you wouldn't do that for us.

15. Not knowing how to speak to women in general:

To my male readers: try to fix the majority of the above points that I have just listed for you, and then, maybe, we can have a real conversation.

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.
