10 Reasons Why Dogs Are Awesome

Dogs aren't thought of to be man's best friend for nothing. Here are a few reasons why dogs are the best:

1. They are always excited to see you.

Whenever you get home, your pup will be super excited about your arrival and will always be there to give you lots of lovin’ when you walk through the door.


2. You won't need to vacuum anymore, because they'll eat all the crumbs up off your floor.


Say goodbye to that household chore! Having a dog means they’ll eat anything and everything that gets dropped on the floor, and they’ll still be hungry.


3. Having a dog means you'll never be home alone.

You never have to worry about being home alone because you’ll always have a buddy to spend time with doing whatever it is you do when you’re home by yourself.


4. Your dog is a constant cuddle buddy.


Your pup is the perfect cuddle buddy. When you just want to sit back and relax, your pup will be there for you.


5. Your dog can't complain like people can.


Although they can bark, they’ll never be able to complain and say annoying comments like people can.


6. Studies have shown that dogs reduce stress levels.


Dogs can actually reduce stress levels. They are sometimes used as “emotional support animals” and can soothe their owner's emotional upsets. These dogs can actually live in places that have a no pet policy because they help with a medical disorder or condition.

7. They teach us how to find joy in the simple things.

No matter what, dogs always stop to smell the flowers. They stop to appreciate the little things in life and seem to find joy in whatever they do. Hopefully this is a lesson that all of us can learn from our dogs.


8. Dogs are great workout partners.


Having a dog is a big commitment. They require you to walk them, play with them and to be outside. This means you’ll have to live an active lifestyle so that your pup can get enough exercise.


9. THEY ARE SO CUTE


So cute! Even though puppies are the cutest, I still think that dogs of all ages are the cutest animals.


10. They'll always love ya.

At the end of the day, your pup will be there for you when you get home, and no matter what happens they’ll be there for you to cuddle, be a walking buddy, or just hang out.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.

Thanksgiving break is over and Christmas is just around the corner and that means, for most college students, one hellish thing — finals week.

To prove it, here are just a few of the many deranged thoughts that go through a college student's mind during finals week.

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.
