When Odyssey contacted us to start a Blue Mountain chapter, I had no idea what a whirlwind this would be! But here we are, just on the tip of what is going to be a grand adventure. So, without further ado, here they are - the BMC Odyssey team.

Bekah Smith - Editor in Chief
I'm ready for senior year, double majoring in literature and biblical studies. I'm sure my ability to quote the entire movie The Princess Bride will come in handy someday!

Take more chances. Dance more dances.

Mallorie Sweat - Contributing Editor
I'm moving into my junior year balancing a major in exercise science, minor in pre-physical therapy, and my role as a collegiate athlete.

Don't sweat the small stuff.

Myra Gilmore - Writer
When I'm not living the high life of a junior double majoring in history and English, I love to play the violin.

Have courage and be kind.

Thomas Weinhold - Writer
I'm about to wrap up my career at BMC, majoring in Christian ministry. I'm recently engaged to the most gorgeous girl in the world.

Don't be late for things -just don't.

Michelle Calderon - Writer
I'm starting my sophomore year majoring in psychology and minoring in sociology. I have a grand love for sushi.

Let your eyes show how big your heart is smiling.

Hannah Bullock - Writer
I'm a senior English education major. This last April I stepped out of my comfort zone and started singing; I always knew I could - I was just too afraid to try!

Lessons are learned as stories unfold, life's a journey. Take hold.

Ali Sizemore - Writer
I've made it to my junior year as an elementary education major, even without ever having learned to swim.

See the light. Be the light.

Jacob Riley - Writer
I'll be a junior this year, double majoring in biblical studies and English. I have the perfect nose for coffee and can smell an over roasted bean from a mile away.

There is some good in this world and it is worth fighting for. - J. R. R. Tolkien

Carie Gayden - Writer
I'll be a senior this year. Double majoring in business and Christian ministry. Um...this is a little embarrassing...but I can quote the entire move School of Rock.

The worst thing about prison was the dementors. - Michael Scott

Tiffany Evans - Writer
I'll be a senior this year, majoring in Christian ministry with a double minor in business and social studies. I love watching black and white films - there is a certain magic in them that has been lost in today's movies.

Stars can't shine without darkness.

Molly Woolworth - Writer
I'm kicking off my rookie year at BMC as an education major, minoring in English. I know every Disney song by heart.

There is beauty in being kind.

Avery Thorn - Writer
Somehow, I've managed to make it to my junior year without ever having seen Forest Gump. However, I'm majoring in biblical studies and minoring in history.

Eating and reading are two pleasures that combine admirably.

Jessie Jacobs - Writer
Despite being very accident prone and having broken a bone three times, I've made it to my senior year!

Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot, nothing is going to get better. It's not. - Dr.Sues

Micah Russell - Writer
I'm a senior double majoring in Christian ministry and biology, and minoring in history. Even with that work load I've found time for travel - 44 states, 10 countries, and counting!

The best proof that He will never cease to love us lies in that He never began - Geerhardus Vos.

25 Beatles Lyrics: Your Go-To Guide for Every Situation

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

SUNY Binghamton

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.

Waitlisted for a College Class? Here's What to Do!

Dealing with the inevitable realities of college life.

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.

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

And in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make

The sun is up, the sky is blue, it's beautiful and so are you

Love is old, love is new, love is all, love is you

There's nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be

Life is very short, and there's no time for fussing and fighting, my friend

He say, "I know you, you know me", One thing I can tell you is you got to be free

Oh please, say to me, You'll let me be your man. And please say to me, You'll let me hold your hand

It was twenty years ago today, Sgt. Pepper taught the band to play. They've been going in and out of style, but they're guaranteed to raise a smile

Living is easy with eyes closed, misunderstanding all you see

Can you hear me? When it rains and shine, it's just a state of mind

Little darling, it's been long cold lonely winter. Little darling, it feels like years since it' s been here. Here comes the sun, Here comes the sun, and I say it's alright

We danced through the night and we held each other tight, and before too long I fell in love with her. Now, I'll never dance with another when I saw her standing there

I love you, I love you, I love you, that's all I want to say

You say you want a revolution. Well you know, we all want to change the world

All the lonely people, where do they all come from. All the lonely people, where do they all belong

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends

Hey Jude, don't make it bad. Take a sad song and make it better

Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away. Now it looks as though they're here to stay. Oh, I believe in yesterday

And when the brokenhearted people, living in the world agree, there will be an answer, let it be.

And anytime you feel the pain, Hey Jude, refrain. Don't carry the world upon your shoulders

I'll give you all I got to give if you say you'll love me too. I may not have a lot to give but what I got I'll give to you. I don't care too much for money. Money can't buy me love

All you need is love, love is all you need

Whisper words of wisdom, let it be

Blackbird singing in the dead of night, Take these broken wings and learn to fly. All your life, You were only waiting for this moment to arise

Though I know I'll never lose affection, for people and things that went before. I know I'll often stop and think about them. In my life, I love you more

Obviously the best superpower.

There have been many lessons learned.

1. The importance of traditions.

2. How to be thankful for family and friends.

3. How to give back.

4. What the word "community" really means.

5. That it isn't about the destination, but the journey.

6. The consequences of making bad choices.

7. To trust people, until you have a reason not to.

8. To be welcoming and accepting of everyone.

9. How to be my own, individual person.

10. How to work for what I want.

11. How to be great at giving directions.

12. How to be humble.

13. To be well-rounded.

14. How to be great at conflict resolution.

15. The beauty of getting outside and exploring.

16. To be prepared for anything.

17. That you don't always have to do it alone.

18. How to be creative.

19. To brush off gossip.

I have never been so thankful to know you.
