5 Reasons Why Dogs Are Humans' Best Friends

I have always been more of a dog person opposed to cats. I love dogs from how cuddly they are to how active they love to be. Sometimes I truly do wonder what humans did so right to deserve dogs. If you don't have a dog or never had a dog you're probably not aware of all the greatness that is a dog or a puppy, but don't worry, because you'll probably be convinced to get one after you read these 5 reasons dogs are humans best friends.

1. They're always there to comfort you

Dogs are honestly one of the best things to cuddle with when you're feeling down about something. It's even cuter when they try to give you dog kisses because they know you're feeling sad. The best thing is you don't even have to tell dogs you're feeling sad because they can basically sense it. Regardless if the dog is huge or just a small little puppy they are perfect for laying with.

2. They are loyal


Loyal friends are hard to find, but not when it comes to dogs. They tend to be very loyal animals. They protect their owners and always stand by their side. Even when you're busy and aren't home to play with them all day they'llalways be waiting for you when you get home.

3. Dogs aren't judgmental


It's pretty obvious that dogs love you no matter what. You could be a hot mess, but to your dog,you're probably as perfect as it gets. They also don't judge you when you stay in your bed past noon to sleepbecause honestly they'll be curled up right next to you.

4. They're great company


Don't have anyone to work out with? A dog is a perfect partner to go on a hike or run with.Usually, it's bigger dogs that like to do all the running, but regardless, most dogs and puppies are down to do just about anything with their owners from binge-watching Netflix to swimming, maybe even some yoga.

5. They always put a smile on your face


Regardless if they tear up your shoes or do something they're not supposed to, dogs are hard not to love. One minute you'll be scolding your dog and the next you'll be cuddling with them. Dogs are incredible creatures and they truly are humans' best friends.

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter

It's not all morning coffees and singing along to the radio.

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter
morethanwheels

I've been in college for four years now. I spent half my time as a commuter and half as a resident so I've experienced both sides of the housing spectrum. One thing I've learned comparing the two is that my struggles as a commuter far outweigh anything I went through while living on campus. Commuters have to deal with the problems school brings along with a slew of other issues; I've filled up my gas tank in the worst kind of weather conditions and napped in random places in public more times than I'm proud to say of. This is a list of some of the most challenging aspects of being a commuter.

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!
