To My College Family The Tough Times Brought Closer Together
Haylee Olley

To my College Friends (Well, my second family),

I can't describe or even begin to explain how much you mean to me. This past semester has been rough for all of us, and weirdly, it's brought our friend group so much closer.

I'm so thankful for every one of you even though sometimes, I don't seem like it. I wanted to thank each of you individually for getting me through this rough semester.

I love you all so much.

When I came to college, I was terrified of making friends when in reality, I did not need to be scared. When I first met Paige, she welcomed me in with open arms, and we've been attached at the hip ever since.

Paige, thank you so much for having my back. Every day is an adventure with you, no joke, and I couldn't ask for a better friend than you. Thank you for always having my back and being the best friend and older sister to me that I could ever ask for. I love you so much.

Jimmy, now its time to roast you. Just kidding, in all seriousness, you are my best guy friend. I thank God for Paige introducing us because now we cause chaos together!

Thank you for always supporting me, and being the older brother I've always wanted. And thank you for being my shoulder to cry on. I love you so much.

Brooke, my first roommate (we won't mention the other) I miss you so much. But you've always had my back from the beginning, even though we fight sometimes, we always make up in the end.

Thank you for always being there for me, and I promise to still be there for you. I love you so much.

Nat, my former roommate, meeting you was a blessing and a curse...just kidding. You are my absolute best friend, and I don't know what id do without you. Thank you for being my rock, and keeping me (kind of) out of trouble, I love you!

Becca, I have been graced with your presence this semester, and there's no one else I would rather insult. Thank you for being the greatest freshie and friend that I could ever ask for. And I can't wait to see what next semester brings--I love you!

But in all seriousness, I have many friends on campus, but these individuals have gotten me through the darkest moments in college. So to you, five, lovely individuals.. thank you so much for everything.

Here's to many more years of laughter and friendship...thank you so much for everything. I love you

Love,

Haylee

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.
