4 Reasons Why I Never Need A Prom Night
Kebin Young

Everyone loves prom! It's the best night of all time, but I have never experienced it. After my sophomore year of High School I decided to do online high school. Long story short it never worked out and I am currently getting my GED. I realized today I never even needed to go to prom.

1: I'm not the Dress, Heals, Girl

I like to dress up for church and other events but I never liked to wear dresses for that long. High heals go in the mud, so why would I wear them if I can't keep them clean? I'm the country girl that loves the outdoors!

2: I Can Not Dance

I do not know how to dance. Prom is a fancy dance for teenagers. It's funny that I wanted to go so bad and I do not even know how to dance!

3: I Wanted The Perfect Guy to Invite Me

Both years in high school I wanted a guy so bad to ask me to Homecoming or Prom. I guess God has different plans for me in life! I was never asked to go to prom by the "perfect guy", but I was asked by the guy of my dreams to marry him and spend our lives together! One year later I finally realized all the things in life I wanted or want I never needed. What I needed was right in Front of me the whole time.

4: Who I Really Am

Saturday was Benton' s prom night. My husband and I had went on a walk, and then went to Benton park. I was wearing workout clothes that I was always embarrassed to wear. I didn't know what others would think. Especially all the girls that alwaying thought they were better than me. Well Saturday evening my husband tried to teach me how to play tennis. I made a fool out of my self right in front of people taking prom pictures and I did not care because I was happy to be me in front of someone I love in public!

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.
