4 Things To Remember About The Election
Unknown

1) He IS your president. Whether that makes you excited, or not so much. We, as American citizens are all under the rule of one unified government, built on the Constitution.The majority of people who are upset about the election dislike Donald J Trump. Many accuse him of being “hateful, homophobic, racist, a bigot, etc.” But ironically, what do they do in response? Chastise Trump supporters, burn American flags, riot, loot, steal, attack, and cause utter strife. All things considering, this is a TAD BIT hypocritical…. How about instead of acting like uncivilized delinquents, we handle things like adults and turn to ration and reason? Because I can tell you right now that as a divided nation we will get NOTHING accomplished. Many of us, were nothing short of furious at the fact that Barack Obama, questionably the worst president that we have ever had, took the office for a long and grueling eight years. However, you didn’t see people destroying things and acting like animals as a result because at the end of the day, that’s how the people voted.

`2) Trump won the electoral college 306 to 232. Thus, the majority of Americans decided that Trump was what our nation needs right now. Fair and square.

3) Say what you want about the Donald, but I would take an in-politically correct man over a woman who has lied to the American people, murdered American citizens, supports third-term abortion, rigged the election from Bernie Sanders, left Libya in turmoil, sold weapons to ISIS and helped fund terror organizations, was mentored by Margaret Sanger, in whom helped create Planned Parenthood in attempt to limit the birth of minorities, deleted thousands of emails--need I go on?

4) You can’t change the results, so instead of griping, we should look at how to move forward from here. We should discover ways to make the best of what we have got to work with for the next four years, because no solutions can be formed until we first come to terms with the results.

However, until that day comes, strife will continue and division will prevail.

birthday party

My birthday has never been my favorite holiday. I've found that I'm more excited to celebrate my friends' and family members' birthdays more than my own. I don't like being the center of attention, so I usually celebrate over dinner with a small group of family and friends. This way, I can enjoy myself naturally without feeling like I have to entertain everyone and make sure they are satisfied. In the past when I've had large parties, I was so nervous that people weren't perfectly content that I didn't enjoy myself at my own celebration.

College Informations

Most of us have already started the spring semester, and for those of you who haven't started yet, you suck.

It seems like coming back from winter break wouldn't really be a break all things considered, since we all come back to school and pick up right where we left off. We know exactly what to expect, yet we're unprepared every single time.

I'm serious

There are tons of unisex names that are popular: Taylor, Alex, Bailey, etc. There are also numerous names that are used for both sexes, but they’re not seen as “unisex” yet. People are slowly becoming accustomed to the dual use of these names, but for the most part, in their minds they associate certain names with certain sexes. And that leaves those of us with these names in many awkward situations.
