Most of us know about the female empowering movie about a blonde sorority girl that decides to go to Harvard Law to get her jerk BF back. Rather than getting back with him, she ends up being top of her class and proving to him that if you set your mind to it, you can achieve anything. And you can do it all while still being true to yourself, pink heels and all.

While Elle Woods is great, the real hero of this movie is in fact David Kidney, the dorky law student who helps Elle. Here are some more reasons why this guy is the best part of Legally Blonde!


He dewormed orphans in Somalia. Even a genius like David has time to help those in need. And he did it over the last 18 months!

He was never mean to Elle. For most of the movie he is quiet as a church mouse, but even as an introvert David doesn't follow the trend and treat Elle with disrespect like Vivian. He even helped her through out the movie, especially at the end when he helped her become Brooke's attorney instead of the sleazy Professor Callahan.

He put himself out there to get a date He didn't try to lie about himself to make him look like a better choice or be smooth for that matter. (Elle did help make it seem like he was a heartbreaker, but can ya blame her? He needed help).

He's really smart, like crazy smart The man has a masters is Russian Literature AND a Ph.D. in Biochemistry. I'm lucky I'll get a B.A. in English, let alone in another language.


He's actually really hot Actor Oz Perkins is one fine specimen! Just look at that steely gaze; it's like he's looking into your soul *swoon*

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichƩs, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And donā€™t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Donā€™t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and youā€™re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. Youā€™re running late because youā€™ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterdayā€™s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?
