10 Reasons why politicians are like middle school girls

No offense to middle school girls, but when you are 13 or 14 your probably not at your best point in life. From dealing with a rapid change in hormones to going through a bad round of braces, you are awkward, mean, and sometimes you just want to cry. Politicians on the other hand, seem to revert back to their middle school days. This is clearly seen through their social media pages and their outfit choices.

1. They try out new fashion trends and try to bring things back from the past


Hillary put away the pantsuit it's blinding my eyes.

2. They do not know how to properly use makeup


Donald you might want to consider less bronzor and some chapstick.

3. They argue and bicker every time they get together

Literally they cannot agree on anything so it's like a bad middle school dance on reply - awkward and not fun.

4. They have mastered the tweeting and subtweeting game

Not going to lie, this is actually really entertaining, even though extremely childish.

5. They have unrealistic expectations of what would make their lives better

Not socialism, please no socialism.

6. They bring up the same minuscule things over and over again

"When my parents emigrated"

7. They stay in relationships that seem questionable

Would I have stayed with Bill? Absolutely not.

8. They do things to stay relevant in the social scene

Just like when Ben Carson publicly endorsed Donald Trump after he dropped out of the Presidential race.

9. They can be very argumentative, but then want your money

Ted it's going to be okay I promise, the Presidency isn't everything.

10. You don't really like them, but have to choose the one that sucks the least

It's like trying to pick the winner of a talent show.


So don't be like middle school girls or politicians. Be honest, kind, and open to new ideas. You could be shocked how far it can get you.

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?

sisters

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.

If you’re anything like me, you love a good cup of coffee. My coffee always comes from Starbucks; I refuse to drink it from anywhere else. Over the years, it’s become one of my biggest addictions. So, if you are aware that you’re a Starbucks addict as well, or maybe you need to check to see if you’re an addict, here are seven ways to tell.

It can be overwhelming at times and it’s important to take a step a back and calmly think things over. Maybe gain some perspective. The following aren’t foolproof tips and may not apply to you, but I was able to find success with them (hope you do too!)
