I'm sure by now you've already heard about the college admission drama. If not, let me catch you up to speed. Dozens of parents have been charged in a massive college admissions scam where the parents paid thousands of dollars for their children to get into the school. Actress Felicity Huffman and Lori Loughlin AKA Aunt Becky from Full House have been outed by the media.

This brings me to Lori's daughter, YouTuber Olivia Jade. This girl is currently 19 and has 1.9 million followers so she by a standard in a successful YouTube personality.

For example, one is titled (LUXURY) WHAT I GOT FOR CHRISTMAS 2018. This girl sits in front of a camera and shows up what luxury items she has gotten from her parents and family for Christmas. In the picture below she has a Gucci wallet which is valued at $590, yes almost six hundred dollars. Trust me, the most expensive thing she got was a Chanel bag worth $4,900. In total, she had received 20 items at a total value of $8,606...Why are you making a video, bragging about the expensive items you receive while people can't even afford gifts for their own children? You brag how you got pants that you wanted (But didn't buy) and was glad you didn't waste your money on them...I can't with this thinking.

It must be nice to have the money for all those things. Me? I have to take out students loans to afford my education. I'm the first in my immediate family to so college, and I'm online because not many colleges around me had the major.

It must be nice to cheat to get into a school. I wanted to take zoology and work for animals but I don't get the chance. I couldn't pass the ACT/SAT because I find them difficult and I'm not the best at studying. Besides that, I don't have the money to pay for a university such as OSU because I'd have to stay on campus, money I don't have for that either.

I'm sure a lot of us feel this way. I didn't think she had much to do with it until I started digging and I'm glad I did. There are kids out there wanting to get a good education not only for themselves but for their families as well. It isn't fair that you and the other kids get a free ride into it while we have to work, work and pay for it, can't afford it or take out students loans.

I hope that you can get past all the narcissist ways and thinking and realize why people are angry. The parents are equally to blame as well but when I sit there and hear quotes, watch videos and read comments, I can't help but to put the blame on you as well. You said you didn't want to go, your parents wanted you to but you could care less...Parties and boys are more important than education, right?

11 Things Summer Nannies Can Relate To

As a college student, being a nanny over the summer is both enjoyable and challenging. Underneath the seemingly perfect trips to the pool or countless hours spent playing Monopoly are the obstacles that only nannies will understand. Trading in your valuable summer vacation in return for three months spent with a few children less than half your age may seem unappealing, but so many moments make it rewarding. For my fellow summer nannies out there, I know you can relate.

To The Girl Who Falls Too Fast, Never Be Ashamed Of How Hard You Love

Love hard, every day, and never be ashamed.

If it hurts now, it'll hurt again. Not because you're gullible or naive, only because you fall fast, hard, and you do it every time.

We fall each and every time with the complete and utter confidence that someone will be there to catch us. Now that person we SWORE we were never going to fall for has our hearts, and every time we see them our palms start sweating. The butterflies in our stomach start to soar and our hearts are entirely too close to bursting out of our chests.

Growing up I have always wanted to own a horse. My grandparents own a well known equestrian facility in Georgia, so I have been riding since I was born. A bond between a person and their horse is a bond so strong that it cannot be broken. Everywhere I went I wanted to be around horses, even forcing my family to go on trail rides during vacations. Horses have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember has taught me great responsibility, as well as 14 things that all equestrians can relate to.

College is super hard. Between working, studying, and having a social life, it feels like a struggle to just keep afloat.

I understand. When you feel like your drowning and there's no way to stay afloat I understand that it feels like everyone else is doing just fine. I understand all the frustration, long nights in the library, and that feeling that you want to just throw in the towel. I understand that sometimes it's too hard to get out of bed because your brain is already filled with too much information to remember. I understand because I am also feeling pretty burnt out.

Some of the best advice I've ever received was from my social studies teacher in sophomore year of high school. He stated, "If you don't know it at midnight, you're not going to know it for the 8 a.m. exam, so get some sleep."

It's such a simple piece of advice, but it holds so much accuracy and it's something that the majority of college students need to hear and listen to. "All-nighters" are a commonality on college campuses in order to cram in studying for an exam that is typically the next day.
