The Met has to be one of my all time favorite museums. It's so big I still haven't seen all of it. I've only been twice, but I had fallen in love with it the first time I went. Everyone has their favorite exhibits. These are my top five:

1) European Sculpture and Decorative Arts

I was that weird kid throughout school that was so deeply interested in Greek and Roman mythology. I even took a mythology class my senior year of high school. I loved it and I still do, so when I first saw this exhibit I was so excited with all the sculptures of the mythology. That is why this one makes my list.

2) Greek and Roman Art

Now, just like in the European sculptures, this exhibit was so amazing to me! I loved seeing all the different art and styles from Greek and Roman culture. It was just so amazing and fun for me.

3) Egyptian Art

This one is amazing because this is an actual tomb, and how many people can say they have seen an Egyptian tomb? Okay, maybe everyone who travels, and or has been to the Met; but still it's really cool! As you go deeper into the exhibit you also get to see the different sarcophaguses and jewelry worn by the ancient Egyptians.

4) Arms and Armor

This exhibit just makes me feel like a little girl who wished for her knight in shining armor. Looking at all of the knights and swords was so cool, I just felt transported to a different time period.


5 Modern and Contemporary Art

I am not the type of person that gets all art. Trust there is a lot of modern art I just don't understand. It is intriguing just to look at--all the different colors, shapes, and pictures. You can't help but just look at some of it and just ask what it means or what is the point. But that is kind why I like this exhibit; because it makes me think and makes me wonder instead of just looking at it and moving on.

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.
