Most people know America for being great right? Other countries have problems such as earthquakes, war, poverty, diseases, and starvation. But what does America have? America has a CLOWN problem. That's right...I said CLOWN, as in those creepy Halloween costumes with the painted faces, tomato looking noses, and rainbow wigs. Is this what the great America has come to?

America has always been a role model country for other countries and our allies in the world. We have always been ahead in weaponry, viewed as strong, and have always been put together as a country. America has had a great history. Up to now... What has America come to that we now have crazy people dressing up as clowns and trying to kill people? Since when is this a normal thing to do? What were people in America thinking when they decided to dress up as mystical creatures with the intentions of horrifying people and killing them? This uproar of murderous clowns has people terrified for their lives. People are now terrified of their lives. The people of America are refusing to go leave the safety their homes without company, having increased anxiety, and they are paranoid. Not only are the normal people terrified, but the other psychos of the world are playing copy cat. Other psychos are copying each other and are dressing up as clowns trying to terrify more people. Who knew America could become such a sick place?

If only someone had an explanation as to why this is happening or how this started, a lot of problems could be solved. It is as if one day everything was normal and the next, the population of psychos went crazy and turned into murderous clowns, while the rest of the population became fearful of their lives. What could have possibly led America to this point?

Some might blame the increase of technology and increased boredom in the younger generations. With the increase in technology and social media, people have an easier time getting attention from the rest of the internet population. With the simple click of a button, thousands of people can view a video in less than 10 minutes. This creates the incentive of people to gain attention by doing negative things such as becoming murderous clowns. Along with the increase of technology, there is an increase of boredom in the younger generations. Technology, social media, and video games have become so prevalent in today's society that people are becoming bored with their lives. This boredom could be the cause of this clown epidemic. Who thought that would be a term used? CLOWN EPIDEMIC.... Let that sink in.

If the world has come to fearing our lives from a bunch of creepy clowns, what could the future of America be in for?

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.
