"Spring is known as a time of rejuvenation, and the start of new beginnings"

Sunshine and Blessings
Stocksnap

The sunshine brings me joy. There's something about the warmth and brightness of the sun that makes my skin glow, my body energized, and my heart content. Spring is known as a time of rejuvenation, and the start of new beginnings. If you know me at all, then you know how much I've dreaded this on and off snowy weather that we have had this winter. It was beautiful the first time, but it became very upsetting when it snowed once again in February. And although I would give anything for it to be summer, I am excited to see what changes and adventures come my way this spring.

As winter comes to a final close, and as spring begins, it's time to look back and reflect on the blessings that this winter season brought. Blessings come in all shapes and sizes, it could be a victory one, a goal achieved, a lesson learned, a dramatic lifestyle changed, something new gained, something lost, a commitment made, a promise held, and a joyous moment that changed perspective. No matter how it came about, or what it is, blessings should be treasured.

So my dear readers, reflect, keep working hard in school and at your place of work, look forward to some time of rest, and let’s start planning for the many adventures we will all individually take in the season to come.

Spring break is only a few weeks away, and I can hardly wait. Although I will stay home most of the time, or that I am not going anywhere, let alone any big plans, I am excited to relax, catch up on some sleep, and hopefully enjoy some sunshine.

Happy spring, may your days be filled with joy, laughter, and lots and lots of sunshine!

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.
