Perfecting the art of a basic white girl seems to be a difficult task. I mean, as soon as you catch up with one trend, another one starts. You have to toss away your love for Taylor Swift or S'well bottles just as quickly as the seasons change. Think you need some help in with your basic white girl game?

No need to fear, just follow these sixty steps.

1. Drink lots of Starbucks.

Specifically Pumpkin Spice Lattes, Pink Drinks, and Vanilla Bean Frappicno's.

2. Take pictures of your Starbucks every time you get Starbucks.

3. Join a sorority.

And constantly fight people when they tell you it's paying for your friends.

4. Make sappy Instagram posts where you thank your sorority for helping you find your home & your soul sisters.

5. Have an unhealthy obsession with "Mean Girls."

Quote drop whenever necessary.

6. Listen to Fetty Wap & Drake while you pre-game in your big's apartment.

Because they are the greatest rappers of all time.

7. Only post pictures on Instagram if they fit your ~aesthetic~.

8. Wear leggings AT LEAST three times a week. Probably more.

9. Post pictures of your treadmill on Snapchat every time you go to the gym.

Because if you don't post a picture of it, you didn't go.

10. Go to a lot of country concerts during the summer.

11. Go to at least one jersey party a month.

12. Constantly ask your friends to take pictures of you.

13. And constantly ask strangers to take candids of you with your friends.

Don't forget to fake laugh!

14. Develop an unhealthy obsession with fall.

It is your favorite season, after all.

15. Post Boomerangs on your Instagram story a lot.

16. Call yourself a wine connoisseur, even though the only wine you drink is Barefoot Pink Moscato.

17. Watch The Bachelor and The Bachelorette religiously, and live-tweet the whole thing.

18. Use Tinder "just for fun."

Don't forget to put a quote from The Office in your bio!

19. Complain about how bad carbs are for you every time you eat a meal heavy in carbs.


Bonus points - refer to yourself as a "Carbie."

20. Make Chipotle your go-to fast food stop.

21. Use Snapchat filters then make fun of yourself when you post a selfie on Instagram where you use a Snapchat filter.

22. Make a big deal about staying in every weekend night that you decide to stay in.

I'm talking at least three Snapchats of your Netflix screen and the pint of ice cream next to you.

23. Pick out a set of clothes EXCLUSIVELY for your walks of shame.

Rock that XL sleeper shirt, shorts, and make sure your hair and makeup looks like total shit.

24. Plan your Halloween costume months in advance.

Even dedicate a Pinterest board to ideas!

25. Dress up as a cat, Harley Quinn, a piece of fruit, or an athlete for Halloween.

26. Obsess over tailgate season.

I mean, it is the best season.

27. Drink out of a S'well water bottle.

Specifically a marble one.

28. Wear chokers when you want to feel ~edgy~.

29. Wear white high-top Converse with your leggings.

Even though we all know white shoes will get dirty.

30. Become obsessed with doing your eyebrows.

Gotta keep them on fleek.

31. Wear XL t-shirts and Nike shorts to class, along with your Birkenstocks.

Don't do your hair or makeup, either. It'd be a shame to look like you tried.

32. Own an iPhone and a Macbook.

Bonus points if your iPhone screen is shattered.

33. Cover your MacBook in Redbubble stickers.

34. Constantly tweet about how Beyonce is QUEEN.

35. Be a nursing, education, or fashion major.

Because we all know ONLY basic white girls want to be kindergarten teachers.

36. Be either very down-home, Southern Conservative or be a very liberal feminist. There is no middle political ground for basic white girls.

Time to choose your side.

37. Buy your lipstick EXCLUSIVELY from Kylie Cosmetics.

38. Only post on Facebook when you need to post a very timely "life update."

Like getting a new job, changing your major, or needing people to donate to your Dance Marathon page.

39. Write open letters to your ex-boyfriend or your little on Odyssey.

#Guilty

40. Hang Christmas lights in your dorm room.

41. And a tapestry. Don't forget the tapestry.

42. Aspire to be more like Taylor Swift. Or hate her. One of the two.

She's either your queen or your worst enemy.

43. Go out to brunch on the weekends.

44. Go to Zumba classes.

45. Or Yoga. Or Pilates.

46. Get insanely hype for 7 for $27 at Victoria's Secret.

47. Use the caption "Go best friend, that's my best friend" or "Let me tell you 'bout my best friends" on some cute pic of you and your BFFs before a party.

48. Make a Finsta, where you post pictures of you kissing Smirnoff bottles and other ~edgy~ things.

49. Get a tiny tattoo of a heart, cross, or infinity sign.

50. Get said tattoo on your wrist or ankle.

51. Let everyone know how much you LOVE dogs.

"Hi guys, my name is Becky, I'm a junior nursing major, and a fun fact about me is that I love dogs."

52. ALWAYS ask strangers if you can pet their dog.

53. Develop an unexplainable obsession with Target.

Don't forget, their $1 section is the best.

54. Use dry shampoo more often than you probably should.

55. Listen to a lot of mainstream pop music.

Taylor Swift included, unless you hate her. (Refer back to #42)

56. Get your nails done AT LEAST once a month.

57. Use Pinterest to plan your future wedding.

58. Spend a lot of time perfecting your "messy" bun.

59. Cry while watching "The Notebook."

60. Live your life through inspirational quotes.

"The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams" after all.

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.
