11 Seinfeld Quotes To Live By
Hulu

For the past month, I've been binge-watching all of "Seinfeld" --the cherry on top of a two-year obsession with the renowned "show about nothing." During this time, I've learned many valuable life lessons. I've also learned how to differentiate which season a clip is from based on the style of Elaine's hair. I've understood all of the running jokes that one doesn't catch onto when sporadically watching randomly assorted episodes. And most importantly, I learned that there is definitely something to this show about nothing. So this is the perfect opportunity to pass some of my newly acquired knowledge onto you.


1. "I gotta focus. I'm shifting into soup mode."

Sometimes, some things are so important that you've got to block out everything else. For example, overcoming temptation to procrastinate online instead of studying, or instead of chatting while waiting in line for the best soup in New York City.

2. "Not that there's anything wrong with that."

You've gotta respect the way other people live their lives. They may be different from you, but just remember their thoughts and feelings.


3. "I had to take a sick day. I'm sick of these people."

Every once in a while, nothing is better than just taking some time off for yourself.

4. "My name is George. I'm unemployed and I live with my parents."

You've gotta be true to yourself. Although this directly contradicts another of his famous lines, "It's not a lie if you believe it."

5. "No way wine is better than Pepsi."

Oftentimes, it's the simple things in life that make us feel the best.

6. "I proclaim this the Summer of George!"

You've got plenty of reasons to be hopeful. Wish for the best for yourself and everybody else in everything.


7. "This was supposed to be the Summer of George."

Things won't always go the way you expect them to or want them to. Sometimes you've just got to resign yourself to that fact.

8. "Serenity now!"

Whenever you're feeling overwhelmed by anything, just utter this line. It'll help relieve stress. And nobody said you didn't have to shout it.


9. "Well the Jerk Store called, and they're running out of you!"

A handy line for whenever somebody is giving you crap. Known as possibly the best comeback ever.

10. "These pretzels are making me thirsty!"

Stay hydrated, kids. Become a citizen of the hydration nation.

11. "I am down. I am totally down. Mark me down!"

Sometimes in life, you've got to jump into things headfirst. You've gotta be eager, and maybe even wear a backwards hat. You've gotta try new things. Whenever anybody asks me if I want to watch Seinfeld, this is how I reply.


So now you've gained some new perspective and some handy life advice. Go use it!

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.
