Six Things We Can Learn from Thad Castle

Played by actor Alan Ritchson, Thad Castle is known as the hunky yet dense captain of the Blue Mountain State Football team. With BMS airing for three season on Spike, and now the re-runs being streamed on Netflix, the spirit of Thad Castle has been with us since 2010. Now, we can relive the wonders of the Goat House with "Blue Mountain State: The Rise of Thadland," the BMS movie coming out on February 2nd (a date which we've been looking forward to since the series went off air.

In anticipation of the movie coming out, some major self-reflection has helped me realize something very important: we all need to be just a little bit like Thad himself. Here's why:

1. He's always willing to have a good time

There hasn't been a moment where Thad Castle hasn't been ready to get a little wild. He is always up for a new adventure, and there's hasn't been a day where he's been ready for the Goat House to turn up.

2. He's the life of the party

Whether it's celebrating Top Three in the draft or participating in the Drug Olympics, Thad never fails to remain the center of attention every time the Goat House throws down. He is, after all, the captain of the team. He's gotta set an example.

3. He's willing to make sacrifices for the sake of his success

If you know Thad Castle, you know that Oksana may be the single most important object in his life. If he can burn his prized possession in order to get drafted, you can do anything.

4. He isn't afraid to let his emotions show

Thad is an emotional man, and proud of it. It makes us human. He has a way of showing his emotions in a way that we should all be doing. Let it out Thad, let it out.

5. He is willing to take control

When the going gets tough, Thad gets going. If he's in a sticky situation, Thad isn't afraid to do what needs to be done in order to restore order to the world (and the Goat House).

6. He works hard and stays dedicated—to looking good

Need I say more?

We love you, Thad.

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.
