College As Told By 'The Emperor's New Groove'

"The Emperor's New Groove" is a classic Disney movie that everyone should experience at some point in their lifetime. There are plenty of similarities between the hilarious movie and the college experience.

When you have class but you haven't had your coffee yet.

It's going to be a rough morning.

When someone walks in front of you but they’re walking slower than you.

Never throw off the groove.


When the professor announces a group project.

No!


But then realizing you can be in a group with your friend.

Boom. Problem solved.


When someone sits in your "unassigned assigned" seat halfway through the semester.


The only words you hear during a boring lecture when you completely zone out.

"What did you say?"

The look you give your friend after that uninspiring lecture class.

"I really hope you were paying attention."


Finding any possible excuse to not go to class.



When you walk in fully prepared to destroy your test.

OK, maybe you don't break the door down, but you sure do look fabulous.


When your professor sends out an email cancelling class.

Extra points if you get to sleep in now.


Finding that perfect study spot only you know about, hidden deep in the library.


When you procrastinate and you have to get yourself out of the hole you dug.

Here's to another late night study session.


The pure terror of checking your final semester grades.

"Don't make me look!


Your facial expression heading into finals week.

Bring it on.

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.
