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.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
