Recently, my parents surpassed me with the sweetest puppy, and over the last few weeks, I have learned this puppy is better than any man who has come my way. Here are a few reasons why,

1. They're loyal.

A dog won't ever leave you. Literally never, my puppy trails behind me all over the house.

2. They don't talk back.

Okay, they can't talk at all, but I mean you always win the argument here. A man is always trying to prove a point.

3. They're excellent listeners

You could go on ranting for hours, and the sweet pup will just look at you like a little angel listening to you. Not to mention, they won't think you're crazy or look at you like you're insane after.

4. They give endless hugs and kisses, without asking.

Boys can be weird about this, and with a dog you can literally get all the hugs and licks you want.

5. They always want to snuggle.

You don't have to wait for a certain point of the day to snuggle with your pup like you would have to with a man. I snuggle with my puppy literally every five seconds I think. best. thing. ever.

6. They don't care if you gain a few pounds.

Girl go ahead and eat your ice cream, because all the dog is going to care about is if you'll share it with him or not.

7. They're always excited to see you when you get home.

You go home to a guy, and they might be grouchy. With a dog though they just run up to you, so excited, tying to lick your face, tail wagging, and are so happy to see you. I mean c'mon, who doesn't love that?

8. They feel guilty when they do something wrong.

Every now and then pups get into mischief, and when you get on to them, they just kind of sulk and give you those sweet puppy dog eyes. With a guy, well he'll probably not realize he did anything wrong in the first place.

9. They never complain about your cooking.

You can literally fix whatever you want to eat for dinner without having to worry if a guy is going to like it too. Your pup always loves when you feed him!!

10. You can train a dog, but you can't train a man.

A man has quirky habits and shrugs off things sometimes that annoy you, but with a dog you can raise it to be the perfect companion.

So the next time you're thinking about getting a boyfriend, maybe you should consider a fur friend.

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.
