Let's Make America Whole Again


I began writing this days after the election as I was so distraught over the election results.

We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.

The Preamble of the United States Constitution(1787)

breathe. all will be well is what everyone keeps telling the crying children of immigrant parents, the people of LGBQT communities, african americans, and anyone that cares about these groups of people. why are so many people so distraught? `As of Wednesday morning November 9, 2016, donald trump was announced the next president of the United States of America. Granted, he won't officially be the president until January 20, 2017. BUT he still resides as the next president until 2020.

some keep saying at this point what's to be done, "let's keep on keeping on". No. let's not. let's contemplate what America just did and how this could have happened.

donald john trump is 70 years old. He was born In New York City in 1946. He grew up in an upper-class family. He got his bachelor's in economics. His father "gave him a small loan of a million dollars". He is a business man, a hollwyood star, and producer... but nowhere in his resume does he provide the qualifications to run a country or even be in politics at all. He announced he would run for the presidency June 2015. Still early enough in the election process, the Republican party had many runners for the presidency. One by one many began to drop out of the race within the following year. By July 2016 the only two candidates left were donald trump and Hillary Clinton. donald trump was endorsed by the Republican party while hillary Clinton was endorsed by the democratic party.

Now, July 2017, I reflect on the seven months of this man's presidency. Has he fulfilled his promises? Has he stopped tweeting non comprehensive tweets?(yes the president tweets when he's angry how childish) Does he still believe in "Fake News"? Yes, you CNN. Well this what I've gathered through numerous articles and news stories(some even by the famous "Fake News" CNN. He has fulfilled some of his campaign promises. Depending on how you feel about him that could be good or bad. His tweets are still misogynistic and offensive.




This was tweeted in May!! The audacity the president has to call out credible news castors and news sites as "Fake News". its disgusting.

Donald Trump can not be allowed to run for another term. As a country, we the people owe it to ourselves to do better.

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2024, and I still feel like yesterday was summer. Now comes the merriest time of the year, the Christmas season.

Everyone has been waiting for this time of year since mid-October (which is way too early, in my opinion) or before. It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. A lot of times when I ask friends and family what they want, I get a lot of "I don't know" or "I don't care."

mu bucket list

I was sitting at my cubicle, now that I am an adult, looking at the rain pouring down on the windowsill, bumming on life, wishing for the rain to just stop for a full day.

There are moments where we count down the hours until work is over and how many more days till the weekend, and this many weeks until something exciting. Or something like that? Well, I was bumming because my next day off from work is not until Memorial Day weekend, which is not until the end of May. And since this is my first year out of college being a “real person,” I am totally missing the winter, spring and summer breaks. I am sure all of us have felt this way even if just for a hot minute…
