Full House or Fuller House?
Netflix

If you're my age, you might remember the show from the early '90s called "Full House." Though I didn't remember it all that well, I remembered it enough to recognize it when I saw the show on Netflix here in the UK. I knew about it and had seen rerun episodes of it as a kid, and I got excited about the new show, "Fuller House," a continuation of "Full House," which we have all probably heard of at one time or another. This Netflix series came out not too long ago, and I thought it would be a good show. So, in order to feel that I could watch "Fuller House," I decided to sit down and watch all 8 seasons of "Full House" in my spare time.

After watching those seasons, I finally felt that I could watch "Fuller House." Some may have thought it was good, but I felt that it was overkill. Before I watched it, I thought it would be a great continuation of a great show. However, I was incredibly disappointed by what I saw. I didn't finish the series because I just didn't see the point.

Though it was great to see all of the familiar characters and actresses, the 29-year gap didn't seem to make sense. The show seemed completely disconnected from its original place. The characters didn't act the same way they had acted when they were kids, which makes sense, but it didn't really work for the spirit of the original show. I didn't care that Michelle Tanner was missing from the action. I just missed the original charm.

The lessons that D.J. Tanner, Stephanie Tanner, and Kimmy Gibbler try to teach D.J.'s children just down't work. the charm is lost in the adulthood of the older characters. The growing up of the characters was something I had wanted to see, but I wanted to see it gradually. I didn't want to suddenly see them grown up when we had left them as barely entering their teenage and adult years.

Perhaps the show could use some improvements, but in my mind, it shouldn't have been made. Full House was a wonderful and charming sitcom about a family. "Fuller House" tried to continue it, but lost the charm in the grown-up qualities of the characters. It didn't work, and I didn't like it. My opinion may not be the opinion of all, but I have heard it going around, and I would tend to agree.

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.
