15 Reasons Why Obama Just Had To Go
History

With Inauguration Day just past us, I just needed to vent. The Obama Administration had to go.

These might not be good reasons, but they are definitely reasons. Here's why Barack Obama just had to go.

1. Unemployment was getting too low for my taste.

11 million jobs is just too many jobs, amirite? And a 4.9% unemployment rate is just bragging.

2. His dog, Bo, is just too adorable.

How's a POTUS supposed to focus with that amount of tail-wagging?

3. Clean energy is a little too clean. It's almost suspicious.

Solar and wind power is a little easy, don't you think?

4. The sick were getting too much of what they needed through Obamacare.

What a "disaster". People living longer. Walking around all healthy.

5. Married LGBT couples' sharing benefits is too progressive.

What an awful guy, trying to grant everyone equal happiness. How sickening.

6. We really wanted that economic depression he averted.

Americans were finally going to get some much-needed rest and relaxation with all the job losses.

7. Our deficit wasn't cut enough.

You know, it was only reduced by $1 trillion.

8. There were too many high school graduates during his terms.

A graduation rate of 83 percent, the nation's all-time high. That might lead to more college graduates. Where does it end?

9. We missed POTUS scandals.

I mean, there was NO hot gossip. What else do I angrily post about on Facebook? Oh right...everything else.

10. His sense of humor was too impeccable.

Because a sense of humor comes from the DEVIL.

11. His family was too picture-perfect and well-behaved.

Where's the drama? Where are the flaws??? A STEPFORD family if you ask me.

12. The FLOTUS is way over-qualified and beautiful.

All those health initiatives and speaking her feelings. And those arms are really intimidating.

13. All those Barack and Joe memes were getting annoying.

That much friendship and loyalty makes me sick. I'm going to need that Obamacare.

14. He normalized relations with Cuba.

I was having fun getting Cuban cigars illegally.

15. Obama was the WORST.

I mean, just look at that face.


Yeah, so, maybe there aren't any good reasons. But that's because President Barack Obama was one of the most successful presidents in our great nation's history.

I, for one, will truly miss you and I will mourn the campaign that must follow in your influential footsteps. You're one to "trump" them all.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week.

Here is a few signs that you may live in the library, whether you'd like to admit it or not.
