5 Reasons The Chicago Cubs Are the Best

Every game they manage to amaze me and steal my heart. My love for this Chicago baseball team grows greater every day. Of course they are way more than 5 reasons why the Cubs are amazing but here are some that stick out to me.

1. Wrigley Field

The second you hop off the CTA Red line at Addison and take your first steps into Wrigleyville you know you are home when you see that big marquee that reads "Wrigley Field: Home of Chicago Cubs." One of the oldest stadiums in baseball history, you know you are at a Cubs game when you see that big field and sit down in the classic green seats.

2. Kris Bryant

Without a doubt one of the hottest baseball players in the MLB. Our dearly beloved third baseman and a stud of a hitter, he really can do it all. I mean, c'mon, just look at him.

3. Anthony Rizzo

Giphy

Again, without a doubt another one the hottest baseball players in the MLB. We love seeing him at first base and a big time homer guy who always delivers strong at the plate.

4. Bryzzo

Giphy

Yes, the combination of the two names of the hottest baseball player in the MLB. They even created their own souvenir company. Hands down the best tag team in baseball history.

5. World Series Champs

108 years later and in 2016 they finally did it. I remember watching that final out on TV and never feeling so happy to see what they had just accomplished for this team and my city. Fly the W. Go Cubs, Go forever.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.
