10 Signs You're A Dog-a-Holic

Nothing is more exciting than coming home to a wagging tail and barks of excitement. Since the beginning of time, dogs have been known as man's (and woman's!) best friend. Other than being adorable, dogs have many other wonderful traits that make us love them. It is scientifically proven that owning a dog reduces stress and increases happiness levels. Even if you don't own a dog, watching a cute video of a dog has been proven to relieve stress while at work (in moderation, of course). Many dogs are trained to remind their owners to take their daily medication, and some can even detect when their owner might be having a seizure. A dog's main goals in life are to protect their owner and to make them happy. No wonder why us humans are so obsessed with them! Here are 10 signs that you might be a dog-a-holic (and there's totally nothing wrong with that!).

1. You follow more dogs than you do people on Instagram.

Yasss Marnie you look so good! Slay queen!

2. Every time you see a cute dog video, you just have to show all of your friends.

3. You're a member of this group on Facebook.

And if you're not...go join it right now! Seriously, it might be the greatest thing to ever happen to Facebook.

4. You constantly browse Petfinder and Adopt a Pet to see all of the dogs that are up for adoption.

But it's so hard to choose just one, so you might as well just adopt them all!

5. The Puppy Bowl is like a second Christmas to you.

Obviously it's superior to the Super Bowl. The players are way cuter!

6. Your friends know by now that you're not coming over to hang out with them; you just wanted to see their dog.

"OMG I've missed you so much! No, not you...your dog."

7. There is nothing more exciting than seeing a dog out in public.

"So good news. I saw a dog today!" And of course if you're with your friends, you will most likely slap them and scream "Dog!" to make sure that they don't miss it (OK, you might do this when you're alone too).

8. Especially if their owner says that you can pet them!

Bless your kind soul.

9. Nothing makes you happier than dogs in costumes.

I wonder what he's going to make! Either way, I'd still eat it because he looks so cute in that little chef's coat!

10. You pray that your future husband/wife loves dogs just as much as you do.

Hopefully you'll look as good as these corgis on your wedding day (probably not though).

Now that Halloween is over, it's time to focus on the Holiday Season. Don't get me wrong, I think Thanksgiving is great and can't wait for it, but nothing gives me greater joy than watching Freeform's 25 Days of Christmas, lighting peppermint scented candles, decking the halls, and baking gingerbread cookies. So while we approach the greatest time of the year, let's watch the 15 best Christmas movies of all time.

6 Signs You Are An English Major

There are various stereotypes about college students, most of which revolve around the concept of your major. Unfortunately, we often let stereotypes precede our own judgments, and we take what information is immediately available to us rather than forming our own opinions after considerable reflection. If I got a dollar for every time my friends have made a joke about my major I could pay my tuition. One stereotype on campus is the sensitive, overly critical and rigid English major. Here are six telltale signs you are one of them.

When you were little, your parents probably told you television makes your brain rot so you wouldn't watch it for twelve straight hours. However, I feel we can learn some pretty valuable stuff from television shows. "The Office," while a comedy, has some pretty teachable moments thrown in there. You may not know how to react in a situation where a co-worker does something crazy (like put your office supplies in jello) but thanks to "The Office," now you'll have an idea how to behave ifsomething like that should happen.

Here are just a few of the things that religious Office watchers can expect to learn.

High School And College Sucked All Of The Fun Out Of Reading

Books were always about understanding for me, about learning the way someone else sees, about connection.

High School And College Sucked All Of The Fun Out Of Reading

I keep making this joke whenever the idea of books is brought up: "God, I wish I knew how to read." It runs parallel to another stupid phrase, as I watch my friends struggle through their calculus classes late at night in our floor lounge: "I hope this is the year that I learn to count." They're both truly idiotic expressions, but, when I consider the former, I sometimes wonder if there's some truth to it.
