2016 Election: It's Your Choice
CNN.com

With The Democratic (Philadelphia) and Republican (Cleveland) National Conventions looming It is fair to say that this years election will be Trump vs. Hillary. It is also fair to say that these two people are very accomplished in their own respects.

Trump a Real Estate Mongol and Hillary a experienced Politician passing many bills through the years. Whether you choose to support Trump or Hillary that is your choice!

Since Trump and Hillary have been the clear Nominees for their respected parties I have heard so many things about these two individuals. People say why would you vote for Hillary she is a liar and a traitor to our country and then why would you vote for Trump he is a Racist and a Bigot.

Trump's to biggest points is illegal immigration and US trade deals. Hillary is big on education and equal pay for women. People may see illegal immigration as a problem. Education might not be a big issue for them. But it's your vote so it's your choice!

In America people are entitled to their opinions and their beliefs. This means that although you see one candidate as a bad candidate there is another person who may like that said candidate.

Trump may or may not be all of those things but the important thing is that he and his supporters have their right to express their views. Also Hillary may or may not be all of thoes things but once again it is her and her supporters rights to express their views and opinions. This is everyone's first amendment right!

It does not matter what people think. If you want to support Trump be proud its your choice! If you throw your support Hillary's way be proud! don't be deterred by other people a them shaming you because you are for a specific candidate. All that matters is that both Trump and Hillary are qualified to run for President that's all that matters!

Don't forget that you do not need to vote along party lines! If you are a democrat don't be afraid to vote for a republican and if you are a republican don't be afraid to vote democrat. vote for the candidate not the party. So you can be a Democrat that likes Trump or a Republican that likes Hillary. (Just a scenario). Vote for who you want

It's your choice! don't be influenced by media, friends, or family! If you vote it is your choice! You can vote for the Independent that is running or you can write in a name! Its your right and vote for the candidate that best represents you!

So before November truly find your political beliefs and choose someone you want! After all it's your choice.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
