The holidays can be a stressful time of year for everyone. We have to worry about seeing family, buying presents, braving the over-crowded shopping centers, calculating if we'll have enough money to cover everything we need until our next paycheck, venturing out into the bitter cold, and, if you're a college student, you have finals to survive before you make it home. Some of us are good at these things, others of us...not so much. Particularly, holiday shopping procrastinators. You know who you are. And you know what else? It's inevitable. From a fellow holiday shopping procrastinator, I feel you. On a spiritual level.

Having time to shop but instead doing absolutely nothing.

Thinking about those awful crowds and endless lines.

Feeling regret for joining all those secret Santas.

Trying to calculate if we even have enough money to buy a gift.

Finally going out but then buying things only for yourself because you're bougie.

Realizing it's too late to buy anything from online.

You tryna enjoy your holiday spirit but realize you still don't have shit and Christmas is less than a week away.


Every holiday shopping procrastinator goes through these 8 undeniable thoughts, but we eventually find ourselves buying Christmas gifts. See you procrastinators on Christmas Eve!

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.
