Eight might just be a random number to most of you, but my niece is 8 years old now!! I honestly cannot believe it. She's growing up way too fast. I feel like I blinked and she was no longer a baby anymore. We have made so many amazing memories together over these last 8 years. So to celebrate, well not fully celebrate but kind of celebrate, here's 8 of my favorite most recent memories that I've had with my niece.

1. Pumpkin picking and painting.

The sun was in her eyes so she kept looking away from me, but she's still the cutest thing ever.

2. A trip to our local zoo.

Everyone from RI knows and has a picture with the dog statue.

4. A trip to a zoo in Boston.

Okay, but check out that Peacock.

4. One of many movie dates.

I took my niece to see "The Incredibles 2" and "Hotel Transylvania 3", this summer and we have a bunch more movies to see when they come out.

5. Monster mini golf.

Although, in the picture we were clearing killing the games lol.

6. Baseball games.

Fun fact: She plays baseball.

7. Raspberry and blueberry picking.

I missed peaches and apples for the first time ever this year, but raspberries were something new.

8. Drawing with side walk chalk at home.

It's nothing special, but when I was her age I LOVED chalk. It was nice to see that she didn't have a tablet or a phone shoved in her face, like other kids her age.

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.
