5 Reasons Colton Isn't My Favorite Bachelor

I recently just got into watching the bachelor, and after binge-watching a few old seasons, I have come to a conclusion.

I don't think Colton is the best bachelor. He's cute and has good intentions, but I'm not sure that's enough to offset all of the not so great things that he does. I know this is just a reality tv show and I can't see what happens behind the scenes so these are only my opinions.

1. He's shallow

As I said, we don't know everything that goes on behind the scenes, but I mean still. He only ever talks about how gorgeous and attractive the girls are, nothing more than that. Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying that doesn't matter, but these girls are more than just a pretty face. Can he mention how much fun he had with a girl because her personality was amazing instead of talking about how blue her eyes are? These women have substance, personalities, and senses of humor. It's not always about looks.

2. He's too involved with the drama

I'm not going to lie, part of the reason I started to watch the bachelor was because of the drama. Who doesn't love watching grown women going at it on national television? However, I do think there's something wrong with Colton getting involved in every single issue. He only listens to one girl, he asks other girls about drama, and he spends almost everyone's one on one talking about drama. I love the drama, but I just wish Colton wouldn't be so involved.

3. He can't form his own opinions

Colton can't seem to form his own opinions, especially when it comes to drama. It seems like he only listens to one side of the story. Whenever one girl would tell him drama, he would just automatically assume that it was right and couldn't face the possibility of it being a rumor. Colton just accepts whatever girl tells him to be the truth and then he also asks other girls about said rumor? Colton, form your own opinion, please.

4. He leads girls on

Okay, I know this is part of the show, for him to fall in love with the girls and have them fall in with him, but still. He tells girls he can absolutely see a future with them, and then sends them home. For example, he told Caelynn that he could see a future with her and then he just sends her home? That's just one example, but seriously he did it quite a few times.

5. He's too focused on the fantasy suites

Sorry, but I'm going to say it. He's way too focused on the fantasy suites (if you catch my drift) that he isn't even remembering why he's there. He's there to find love, not just to spend a night in the fantasy suites. It's all he can seem to talk about. Sure, he's never been to the fantasy suites before, but can we please talk about something else?

So yes, these are my own opinions on why Colton isn't the best bachelor. That doesn't mean I hate him, I still think he's cute and adorable. Let's just say I'm excited to see who the next bachelorette is.

Things I Am Actually Going To Do This Semester

Or at least try to do.

University of Tennessee at Chattanooga

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.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. 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.

Top 20 Thoughts College Students Have During Finals

The ultimate list and gif guide to a college student's brain during finals.

University of Vermont

Thanksgiving break is over and Christmas is just around the corner and that means, for most college students, one hellish thing — finals week. It's the one time of year in which the library becomes over populated and mental breakdowns are most frequent. There is no way to avoid it or a cure for the pain that it brings. All we can do is hunker down with our books, order some Dominos, and pray that it will all be over soon. Luckily, we are not alone in this suffering. To prove it, here are just a few of the many deranged thoughts that go through a college student's mind during finals week.

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.
