My opinion on the results of the presidential election.

I am afraid. I am afraid to walk outside of my house tomorrow. I am afraid to interact with anyone tomorrow. I am afraid what the next 4 years will have in store for me as a 25 year old woman living in the United States of America. I am ashamed to live in a country that has just chosen a man with no political experience, with at least 12 accused incidences of Sexual Assault, hates the LGBT community, has a great relationship with Russia and it's leader, wants to build a wall between Mexico and the USA, and someone wants to ban and deport all Muslims from the United States. These are just the surface reasons why I am afraid that after 8 years under the Obama administration we turn to at least 4 years of the Trump dictatorship. Before I go any further into this article, please note that this is just my opinion; if you voted Trump I respect your decision and I am happy you voted. This is again JUST MY OPINION and I don't mean to offend anyone. Alright back to your weekly scheduled programing (article).

My emotions even several days later have not waivered much from the fear and not being comfortable in my own skin feeling. The fact is, Americia, this great nation just elected a racist, hateful, and mean jerk into office. Trump has made it ok to sexually assault women, not respect freedom of religion or speech, and created so much hate and violence with in this melting pot of this country. And, this is the man that is going to be the next comander and chief of the United States Of America? What is wrong with this country? Are we just afraid to elect a woman as president? Or are there to many familiar players in the political arena?

The feelings that are inside of my heart and brain are fear. Fear for myself, fear for any women, and one in the LGBT community, fear for any person with a different religion (other than christian), fear for people with different ethic backgrounds, skin colors, and who doesn't fall into Trumps idea of the american ideal. Within the first week after trump has become the president elect the amount of violence that has started, rascism, and hate. The amount of hate oozing out of half this country is sickening. And the worst part is now people think this is socially acceptable due to Trump being elected into office. So, everyone buckle up and prepare the the next 4 years of a rascist, bigot, and hateful man that doesn't know what hes created and or how to fix it.

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.

They find that shirt that’s right in front of you, but just you can’t seem to find.

Take the time to thank that one friend in your life you will never let go of.

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!
