One Car, Two Car, Red Car, Blue Car

From driving slow to dancing in the car, we all see these drivers on the road.

Seat laid back, music up and windows down — that's the only way to drive in the summer. However, while you're driving your way on the road, there are millions of others who drive their own way. Chances are more than half of these other drivers will get in your way and get on your nerves too. Listed below are the types of drivers I'm sure everyone experiences while driving:

1. The Jack that wants to drive slow in the fast Lane

I can't even begin to describe how irritating this is! I get that sometimes the fast lane is more open sometimes, but it's because people who are in it drive — you guessed it — fast!

2. Jack's cousin who doesn't like to use their blinker (turn signal).

How hard is it to pull the lever and signal whether you're turning or merging to the left or the right? Seriously, using these saves lives. It may not be from an actual wreck, but from a pissed off driver that you probably made slam the brakes to allow for your forced entry into the lane.

3. The dancing driver

Sorry, not sorry, because this is totally me. If there's music playing, chances are I'm dancing. I'm also probably speeding. Sorry, Mom! Thank goodness for cruise control, right?

4. The person using their phone.

It's not just talking on the phone or texting anymore. With the technology we have today, it's very common to see people everywhere looking at Facebook, Twitter or trying out a new filter on Snapchat. In all seriousness, don't do any of this. Value not just your own safety, but value others' as well, and don't use your phone while driving. Pick a radio, Pandora or Spotify station and just stick to that until you are able to change it safely.

5. The mad mama

This is one driver I'm sure everyone can relate to. These drivers are easy to pick out because you see one hand on the wheel and half her body turned toward the back with her mouth open. When my sister and I were young, our mother didn't bother turning around. She just counted to three, and if we weren't acting right by the time she got to three, she brought a wooden spoon out and started flailing it in the back trying to connect it to our legs.

6. The tailgater

To the car riding my butt,

I see you riding right up on me. No I am not going to drive any faster. If anything I'll start driving slower.

7. The grandma driver

Bless their heart, but this is the kind of driver that makes you feel bad when you get mad at them for driving how they do. These drivers have their blinker on for at least five miles before they actually turn. Or if they stop at a red light and they go over the line, they'll be sure to put it in reverse to back up. I always seem to run into the grandma or grandpa driver when I'm already running late.

What kind of drivers do you find on the road? Follow me and leave me a comment on what kind of drivers you find on your commute.

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.
