How To Be An Everyday Queen

Unfortunately, you most likely don't have a secret grandmother who is queen of a small country and who will find you and tell you your next in line for the thrown like Mia from The Princess Diaries. However, you can still be a queen. Being royalty is a state of mind, and these are a few things you can do to be an everyday queen without having to actually rule a country.

1. Wear an invisible crown

We've all seen the scenes in movies where the princesses balance books on their heads to perfect the perfect posture. Now, you definitely don't need to balance books to get a royal looking stance, just simply remember to stand tall and confident. Wear an invisible crown and don't let it fall.

2. Perfect your strut

Having a good walk is super important for being a queen as it shows your confidence and power. Whether your strutting down the isles of the grocery store or walking in front of a group of people to give a speech, having a powerful walk will show them all that you are there to conquer whatever is ahead.

Here are a few steps to guide you in the learning process

Murder that grocery list and those pre-presentation jitters. Walk in and slay it.

3. Perfect your wave

Now that you've got your walk down, its time to work on a wave. Remember this important tip, elbow elbow wrist wrist. Now when you see people you know you can give them that royal wave as you strut on by.

4. Do things with grace

Because even if you are mattress surfing down a grand staircase you can still do it with grace like Queen Renaldi of Genovia. To truly be a queen, do everything, even your everyday tasks with confidence and optimism and your gracefulness will shine.

5. Fight for what you believe in

The biggest aspect of being a queen is fighting for what is right for your country. While you aren't making decisions for an entire country, you are controlling your life. Being an everyday queen means that you have the power to fight for what you believe in in your own life. No, you don't have a country to rule but you do have your life, and that in itself is of the upmost importance.

You have the posture, the attitude, the walk, and the wave. Maybe you don't have a country to rule or the fancy dresses and the crown. But you have the fight in you to be a true queen every single day and to inspire others to be kind, couragous, and queens of their own lives too.

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.
