This one's for you, Dad. You put up with a lot to say the least.

1. "Who do you want to win this game?"

2. "I need your advice."

3. "Why is my car making that noise?"

4. "Just don't tell mom."

5. "Are you grilling tonight?"

6. "So I think I want a big wedding; just warning you."

7. *Watching sports: "Wait what just happened?"

8. "Can I have your credit card info? It's just for textbooks..."

9. *Insert complaint about siblings: "You're on my side, right?"

10. "Who are you voting for?"

11. "Let's watch Bridesmaids."

12. "What are your thoughts on getting another dog?"

13. "Yes, he's my boyfriend."

14. "Yes, he treats me well."

15. "Yes, he knows you will kill him if he doesn't."

16. "Eh, lets just go out to eat instead."

17. "I think I'm broke. Am I?"

18. "Still wearing those Crocks, huh?"

19. "Do you want the rest of this? I'm full."

20. "Can you fix this?"


Thank you for making me laugh. Thank you for the random phone calls and FaceTimes and for being my best friend. Thank you for standing up for me even when I was wrong, and thank you for getting me back on my feet when I fell.

Your hard work goes often too unnoticed, so I hope you know how loved and appreciated you are. As the years pass and we both get older, understand that I wouldn't be the woman I am today without you and your constant support. Even though you no longer change my diapers, attempt to put my hair in a ponytail, pick me up from gymnastics, or coach my softball team, please know that one thing hasn't changed: I'm still your little girl.

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.
