New Jersey: the land of traffic, the beach, and drivers who don't care about anyone else but themselves. Here's just a few thoughts everyone has while driving in New Jersey!

1) I wonder how other people do it... pumping their own gas...

I have never once touched a gas pump and I never intend to. Ahh, New Jersey.

2) Stay, stay, I did NOT tell you that you could go!

I do this 100% of the time while driving. I always know when someone's getting the bright idea of turning out in front of me and I just think, 'Not today, sweetheart, you can stay right there!'

3) How do you not see me?! I'm BRIGHT. RED.

I say this all the time. Anyone who knows me knows this is my go to scream-phrase. My car is candy apple red.

4) There's a cop up there, which means everyone needs to slow down and stare at the lights!

Always. Always. I get you all want to see what's happening, but it's probably some idiot getting a ticket. Nothing fascinating, now MOVE, some of us have places to be and people to see.

5) Okay, those police lights are seriously blinding though.

They need to do something about this, especially at night. I can just about see the road, let alone if a cop decides to hop in front of my truck.

6) Oh my god, the sun! I'm blind!

No matter the time of day, the sun always manages to be in my eyes while driving, and the visor certainly does not help us short people one bit.

7) And I'm cutting you off.... NOW!

Blinker at the last second? Check. Lunatic beeping behind you? Double check.

8) How do I get there? Google Maps! I wonder what people did before GPS..

My GPS knows how to get me there in one piece, how to reroute me because I always miss my turns. The machine always knows!! I trust the machine.

9) Let me- LET ME IN! No? You get the middle finger AND the horn!!

Hope you're ready, cause I can do this for miles!

10) Oh my god, I love this song! *plays it 20 times in a row*

The song will not end until I know every single word and everyone else around me does, too!

11) The light is yellow - GO GO GO!

I can make it, I know I can!

12) Wawa or QuickChek, which gas is cheaper today?

Those 5 cents really make a difference. Piece of Advice -- QuickChek is always cheaper.

13) GO FASTER OR MOVE OVER!!

It never fails that you'll be going a cool 45 mph and an old lady turns out going 15... never fails...

14) Run, little squirrel, run!

I will always slow down and let all my little furry friends cross the road.

15) Jeez, you're going so fast! And I'm going fast! How fast are you going?

Everyone in New Jersey drives like a crazy person, and if you're not ready for it, then you just shouldn't be here.

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.
