9 Things You Miss About High School Once You're Teleported To The College-Verse

There is nothing that can compare to high school. People always said to enjoy those years and the people you spend them with because college is something entirely different.

Back then, you probably didn't think so.

But now, college-bound and away from that life, you start to miss those days you were so quick to wish away.

1. Going to school with your home friends every day

There was nothing better than having class with all of your friends. The talking never stopped and the team work on assignments was plenty.

2. Knowing everyone you see in the halls

Yeah, I see you, Jimmy from third grade who gave me a Valentine's note. Don't you worry, I will never forget that. You're the realest.

3. Having teachers who knew your siblings

Depending on how your older sibling(s) were in class, this could either be a good thing or a bad thing. Hopefully, the teacher loved your sibling, which would mean they would love you and would give you an easy A.

4. Spirit Week

Undeniably the best week of school.

5. Driving to school

This is something you definitely took advantage of when you still had it. Now you have to hike five miles just to sit in one class.

6. Friday night football games

Games were fun because you actually knew people from the other school, and you wanted to see them get crushed by your team so bad. Now, you go to a game and don't know a single person on the other team, which makes it a little less interesting.

7. Gym class AKA gossip hour

If you thought I was walking a mile without hearing about who got horrible highlights or how Kyle broke up with Kaitlyn, then you clearly don't know high school girls.

8. Prom

Dress shopping with your best friends and taking pictures that will be with you forever are the moments that everyone wishes they can turn back to.

9. Being able to go home every day

Food. Mom. My own bed. No roommate. What more could you ask for?

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.
