An Open Letter To My Squad

Dear Squad,

Without your friendships I do not know what my life would have been like at college. Maybe we did not know each other forever let alone all four years but it feels like we have. You guys are the ones that I know I can always come to when I need a drunken night, a nice calm dinner, a shoulder to cry on, a good laugh and a judgement free zone.

The thing that makes us great is we can handle ourselves in any situation but it is sure nice to have you guys right there incase someone gets a little overboard. You guys are the dancing queens, and drinking machines in my life and thank god for that because I can not do it all on my own. Maybe people find us annoying because we really only go out with each other. And maybe people find us clingy, but we really all just get each other.

What is also great is we are not even close to being similar. Every group needs the mom, who makes sure everyone gets home safely. If you do not want to leave with a guy she is right there to pull you away and let the guy know he is no longer needed. Every squad needs that one friend who is always getting into awkward situations and does not know how they get there ever because usually they are the drunkest one. The friend who is always up for a good time no questions asked ever. The friend who you have to kind of push to get them out but once they do they bring the party with them.

We have stories to tell, some of those stories can't go untold. Our friendships are the most valuable to me. We all look forward to spending time together even if it is a movie night with no homework.

You guys are the first people I want to tell good news to. The first people to celebrate any event at any time with and to know that I am here at any given time for you. I know that no matter what, you guys will never judge me. You accept me for me even if I come off completely rude or a little dramatic about situations. Thanks for keeping everything pretty much drama free because none of us need that in our lives.

This is me saying thanks for everything. Thanks for always including me in basically everything, even if I couldn't come. Thanks for sending me snaps on a regular basis so I could keep up with your life. Thanks for making time to skype and text and just catching up with me and caring about me. I could not have done my first round of senior year without you four and I do not know what I am going to do for my last round without any of you. But I know you guys all are going to be doing great things in life and are some of the most intelligent, driven and hard working women I know and I am proud to call you guys my best friends.

Until next time,

I love you squad.

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.

There have been many lessons learned.

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.
