You Deserve More Than What You've Been Given

You deserve more than the moon, darling, you deserve every constellation this sky can hold. Never settle for less than perfect.

I know at times life can feel like it's taking advantage of you and you may even buy into the lies of the world that you brought this upon yourself, but don't listen to that for even a second. You are so wonderful inside and out, and you can never fall too far from love and hope.

I know these are tired clichés and you've heard them 100 times, but take it from me, the girl who has dealt with all the emotions and rollercoasters under the umbrella, that you are worth so much more than what little you have from others.

They say, "Don't cross oceans for people who wouldn't cross puddles for you" and others say, "No, do it." I chose: Do what will make you happiest. You need to be selfish and put what you want and need first, and if that means not crossing a puddle for someone because that could cause harm to you and how you feel, don't do it!

This goes with friends, boys, girls, love, relationships, lust, hate and everything in between.

You. Come. First.

Your health and how your heart feels should be your top priority right now, so decide, are you getting what you deserve? And if that question makes you unhappy, odds are that you aren't.

I want you to be happy because you deserve nothing less.

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.
