For all the uninformed Potterheads out there, there's a new app available in the App Store called "Harry Potter: Hogwarts Mystery." It's an RPG app where you get to navigate your way through your years at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, solving mysteries and going to classes, making friends all over the place. There's a lot going on, but here are the best and worst parts of "Hogwarts Mystery."

1. YOU get to got to HOGWARTS!

For the first time ever, YOU get to go to Hogwarts. You can do to class and make friends and you don't have to imagine it! It's real! You can get sorted into your house, fight for the House Cup and gain skills through different activities.

2. Your prefect kinda sucks

Even if you're earning more House Points than ANYONE, your prefect will constantly say that you're not doing enough and you're letting your house down.

3. You get to meet the characters you know and love

From Bill Weasley to Albus Dumbledore, you get to meet your favorite professors and students who attended Hogwarts before Harry, Ron, and Hermione.

4. ENERGY!!!

Sometimes you'll be in the middle of a class or a quest, trying to get enough stars to finish each activity but then you RUN OUT OF ENERGY! It's so frustrating and it takes four minutes to gain them back.

5. You get to explore the sights

If you're like me and have always wanted to wander around Hogwarts, then definitely get this app. You can eat in the Great Hall, walk through the Quidditch pitch, and go to Potions in the dungeon.

Even with the negatives, if you're patient, the game is lots of fun. For more information or to download, visit the game's site!

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.
