Freaking News

The race for the new President of the United States is on. With our choices limited to Donald Trump and Hilary Clinton I have found myself in quite the pickle. I don't want either of them. No, I’m not trying to be unpatriotic. And yes I have found some candidates from earlier in the race that I liked. But I, like many others, have found myself in complete agony with answering the question of who I will be voting for. After weighing the pros and cons I find both unfit for the job of President.

So here I sit, sifting through the qualities and downfalls of two people that I cannot stand. What's a girl to do?

Well, here are 29 things I'd rather do than vote for either of them in this year's election.

1. Go sky diving without a parachute

2. Go sky diving at all

3. Live in a world with no wi-fi

4. Kiss a warty frog, that doesn’t turn into a handsome Prince

5. Get a parking ticket, get three parking tickets, and then get my car booted from having so many parking tickets

6. Live in a world without air conditioning

7. Never have eyebrows on fleek

8. Bathe in a pool of snakes

9. Text you back

10. Get a perm (again)

11. Listen to my voicemail box

12. Move to a Zika virus ridden country

13. Sit in front of someone smacking their gum

14. Live in a world without Beyonce

15. Date Chad from this season of the Bachelorette

16. Answer an unknown number

17. Take 20 credits every semester for four years

18. Send an embarrassing text to the wrong person

19. Run into my ex while hungover, makeup-less, and in last night’s clothes

20. Live in a world without Taco Bell

21. Do a juice cleanse

22. Always have my contour be unblended

23. Have straight across bangs for the rest of my life

24. Never take a good selfie

25. Bob for apples in a toilet

26. Work all day without a lunch break

27. Clog the toilet at my crush’s house

28. Never have more than $5 in my bank account

29. Literally anything

Though these may not seem like the most fun things to do, I expect these next four years will not be a cake-walk themselves. Although it has been drilled into us that voting is our patriotic duty, when faced with these options I believe it is better to not vote for either of these odious candidates. I, myself, would not like to be held responsible for the outcome of the next 4 years. I hope to be surprised and delighted by the hope of somehow our Senate and House of Representatives will use their checks and balances wisely.

Sadly, it looks like the 2020 election may not be much better, but who knows, maybe Kanye West really will “make America great again.” Try ti picture Kim Kardashian as the first lady, picking out China patterns. If it’s anything like her gift wrapping paper, you know, the one with the emojis of her rear end, then we're in for quite a wild few years.

So, when asked, "Who will you be voting for this year?" you now have some crafty new one liners telling them what you'd rather be doing.

In honor of Mother’s Day, I have been thinking of all the things my mom does for my family and me. Although I couldn’t write nearly all of them, here are a few things that moms do for us.

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
