15 Things That Need To Be Left In 2016

Goodbye 2016, I wish we could say we'll miss you!

15 Things That Need To Be Left In 2016
Ryan Parker

It's safe to say that 2016 was an eventful year. We found out Donald Trump will be our next president, our country mourned the death of a gorilla and the Kardashian family got even more complicated. Throughout this historical year, there are plenty of things we would like to leave behind as we move forward to 2017.

1. Dabbing

Ah, yes. The dance move that had everyone smelling their armpits.


2. Bottle Flipping

When technology becomes boring, a water bottle becomes the best source of entertainment.


3. The Running Man Challenge

I'm still wondering how "My Boo" by Ghost Town's DJ became popular again?


4. The Mannequin Challenge

Congratulations! You can hold a random pose for a long period of time! Your mother must be so proud.

5. "Damn Daniel!"

I have yet to figure out who this guy is and why we are so interested in his white shoes?


6. Pokemon Go

There's never been a time that nostalgia caused so many wrecks and injuries.

7. Cupping

It's only cute on Michael Phelps.

8. "JuJu On That Beat"

I swear, if I have to hear that song one more time...

9. Harambe Memes

First, we mourned the loss of the gorilla. Now, we make fun of the gorilla. Makes complete sense.


10. Pepe the Frog

All his memes are rude and crude. Besides, I find him very creepy.

11. All the Kardashian drama

We don't care that Kylie's dating Tyga, who has a baby with Black Chyna, who's having Rob Kardashians baby, who's little sister is Kylie. WE DON'T CARE.

12. Unicorn everything

Unicorns are cute when you're five... not 25.

13. Makeup Tutorials using weird items...

I really hope you don't go out in public wearing condiments as makeup.

14. Election drama.

Everyone became political science majors in 2016.

15. The Clowns

Does anyone else remember when killer clowns invaded the world than magically disappeared after Halloween? Yeah, me either.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

Happy Birthday Cake

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.
