No, why we like the color orange so much is not one of them.

35 Questions I Have For The University Of Tennessee

My time spent at the University of Tennessee has honestly been three of the best years of my life. From the awesome classes to Saturdays spent in Neyland Stadium, UT has given me the greatest college experience I could ever ask for. But, after spending all this time on Rocky Top, I have a few questions I would like to know the answer to.

1. Why did all this construction have to start during my time spent at UT?

2. Speaking of construction, when will Cumberland Avenue be finished? Three months? Seven years? Does anyone really know?

3. Why wasn't Field of Greens included in the new Student Union?

4. Seriously, can we bring Field of Greens back? These poor freshmen will never get to experience the amazing wraps and salads.

5. Speaking of food, how is it that we find the nicest people in the world to work at our Chick-fil-A?

6. To Parking Services, why are you the way that you are? What did I ever do to you?

7. Why can't football season be year round?

8. Why is it that I'm a junior and I've never met Butch Jones?

9. When will it be my turn to meet Peyton Manning at Gus' Good Time Deli?

10. Can we actually have a good football season next year? Pretty please?

11. Why is Hodges Library always -23 degrees?

12. Does anyone else feel like HSS is basically a high school in the middle of campus?

13. What is that weird statue on Ped Walkway supposed to be anyways?

14. Why do people still walk on the seal even though it's bad luck? Are they purposely wanting to graduate late?

15. Why is tuition so expensive?

16. More importantly, is it true that I get free tuition if I get hit by a UT owned vehicle (asking for a friend)?

17. How many times am I allowed to change my major?

18. If it snows this semester, can there be a snowball fight in Neyland Stadium without getting into trouble with the police?

19. Why is Ayres Hall the most beautiful building I've ever seen in my entire life?

20. How many stairs do I take everyday when walking up the Hill?

21. Do professors get together and plan their tests for the same work on purpose?

22. Will I ever have enough orange in my closest?

23. Why does PCB have the best mashed potatoes I've ever eaten?

24. How much weight did I gain from eating at PCB everyday freshmen year?

25. Can I still come eat at Southern Kitchen once a week even after I graduate?

26. Is it okay that I'm emotional about all of the residence halls being torn down in Presidential Court?

27. Does anyone really ever use the Bubble?

28. Can you actually graduate without painting the Rock?

29. Will I ever stop hating Alabama and Lane Kiffin?

30. How do I never, ever get tired of hearing Rocky Top?

32. Why do people think Disney World is the happiest place on earth? It's obviously Neyland Stadium after a win.

33. Do I really have to graduate?

34. Why is UT the greatest college in the whole entire world?

35. Will I ever be able to love UT more than I do right now????????

I'm thankful, grateful, and blessed to be a student at UT. But if someone could answer these questions, I'd really appreciate it. GO VOLS.

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.
