10 Reasons Why I Love My Dad
quotesgram

1. He rarely tells me no.

I'll be honest. I have this man whipped. He gets me whatever I want whenever I want. To be honest with you, he created this monster himself when he didn't let me leave the mall empty handed when I was younger.

2. He gives the best hugs ever.

Y'all, the best hugs of my life were given to me by this man. He's very warm and I can feel the love that he has for me.

3. He is the best person to roast other people with.

I know, that isn't something that we're supposed to do, but he's just so doggone funny. It's one of the many reasons why we aren't allowed to sit next to each other during important events, especially funerals.


4. His cakes are amazing.

Every time he bakes, I understand why my mom married this man and has stayed in love with him for almost 20 years. For my birthday, I always opt out of store-bought cakes for one of his pound cakes. They are simply amazing.


5. He's always willing to support me no matter what.

Eight years ago, I asked to be taken out of dance and to be put into Tae Kwon Do. He did a little bit of research and found a Tae Kwon Do school less than five minutes away from our house. The rest is history.


6. He is very hands on.

Remember that Tae Kwon Do that I told you about? He decided to join with me when he found out that there was an adult portion. Ever since then our bond has grown even stronger.


7. He has shown me what my expectations should be from my husband.

My mom and dad are relationship goals. I love the love that he has for my mom and I love the love that my mom has for him. They were both made for each other. He leads and she follows. He makes sure that she feels protected and loved at all times.


8. He made me a football fan.

My dad used to let me believe that I used to break ankles when I played Madden at 4 or 5 years old. To this very day, we yell at the game together whenever we get the chance.


9. He introduced me to Marvel, DC, and "Star Wars."

He is very much so to blame for my Loki, Luke Cage, Bucky, Joker, and Anakin Skywalker obsession.


10. I will forever be his baby girl.

He tells me that even when I get married and give him and my mom some grandkids, he will still call me his baby girl. That is so important because it further confirms that he will be there to take care of me continuously and love me unconditionally.

Mistakes are something we all make, no matter how old we get. Most of the time, the mistakes we made are little and sometimes due to something out of our control. Yet, there are mistakes that are bigger than others. Personally, I have mistakes that I wish I could go back and undo. Here they are:

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?

Who could be a better friend than your own sister?

sisters
Taylor Hooper

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.
