Who says we can't win GOLD?!?

With the new semester vastly approaching for college kids everywhere and the Olympics going on down in Rio, I could not help to think about if they gave out Gold medals and had an Olympics in college, who would win? Here is the competitions and winners that I think would take the Gold!

1. The Obnoxious Jock


If you thought that jocks were just in high school, you were wrong. Most of the time jocks are worse than ever in college. Rather they be the star of the Team or in a major Fraternity, they normally always think they rule the school. These are the ones who most teachers just give an A, to pass and to continue letting them play for the school.

The way to tell which Jock wins gold, is by the amount of school colors they are wearing and how many A's they get without trying.

2. The Sleeper

I know that sometimes there is that one dreaded teacher that you cannot seem to sit through without closing your eyes atleast once! (especially if it is an 8 a.m.) There is always that one kid in the back of every class who decides that a little catnap or two won't hurt, but they do it every single class period!

The Gold in this one is given to the person who can do this without snoring and can still halfway keep up with the class information!

3. The Extracurricular Guru


It does not really matter what his grades are, but this guy is apart of every club on campus! Environmental Club, Check. Honors Club, Check. Sci-Fi Club, Check. Even clubs you did not even know existed! In addition to all of these, they are also either president or apart of the board on at least half!

The gold goes to the one who is a member of the most clubs. Bonus points if you are apart of the board or higher!

4. The 4.0 Student

This student can make an A with there eyes closed. Even a 99 is mediocre for them! These are the students everyone else envies, although one day we will probably have to work under them.

Gold is awarded to the student who maintains a 4.0 and takes the most hours in one semester.

5. The Serial Whiner

In the easiest class where you are already guaranteed an A, this person will still complain! Everything to them is hard and they say they will never make it anywhere in there lives. This is probably the same person that will leave you hanging in the group project, so watch out!
To win this gold, someone must complain at least once every minute and cry three times a class.


We may be the same age as those in Rio, but we sure do not have their skills! Atleast we all shine in our own areas!

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.

There have been many lessons learned.

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.
