10 Awesome Things That Happened in 2016
Best FM

Most people say that 2016 was terrible—and I don’t think they are entirely wrong, as there were some terrible parts—but there were also so many things to celebrate!

Here are just 10 of the really awesome things that happened this year:

1. Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds finally showed their adorable children off to the public, and it was cute as can be.


2. Leo finally won an Oscar!


3. More puppies!!!


4. Instagram changed its logo (which I honestly think is for the good of everyone—its much prettier now).


5. There were so many hilarious memes made to make fun of Donald Trump’s hair.



6. Netflix somehow made us all love it even more than we did by giving us a Gilmore Girls revival.


7. Miley Cyrus and Liam Hemsworth gave us all a little bit of hope by getting back together after calling off their engagement.



8. James Corden’s carpool karaoke went viral and became one of the greatest things to ever grace this world (in my humble opinion).


9. Ellen DeGeneres took Michelle Obama shopping at CVS…and it was hilarious.


10. The Warriors blew a 3-1 lead and the CAVS WON THE CHAMPIONSHIP!!!!



Thank you, 2016! You were alright (especially for the city of Cleveland ((unless you're the Cleveland Browns...sorry)). Go CLE!!!)

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2024, and I still feel like yesterday was summer. Now comes the merriest time of the year, the Christmas season.

Everyone has been waiting for this time of year since mid-October (which is way too early, in my opinion) or before. It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. A lot of times when I ask friends and family what they want, I get a lot of "I don't know" or "I don't care."

mu bucket list

I was sitting at my cubicle, now that I am an adult, looking at the rain pouring down on the windowsill, bumming on life, wishing for the rain to just stop for a full day.

There are moments where we count down the hours until work is over and how many more days till the weekend, and this many weeks until something exciting. Or something like that? Well, I was bumming because my next day off from work is not until Memorial Day weekend, which is not until the end of May. And since this is my first year out of college being a “real person,” I am totally missing the winter, spring and summer breaks. I am sure all of us have felt this way even if just for a hot minute…
