A Day In The Life Of A Dog Parent

No matter how annoying they can be, dogs will always be human's best friend

A Day In The Life Of A Dog Parent
ABC News

Dogs may be human's best friends, but they can still be a pain sometimes. Whether it's begging to go outside at un-Godly hours or chewing up your shoes, dogs always seem to find ways to be super annoying. However, we always forgive them because they're so darn cute and cuddly. If you're a dog parent, this day in the life of a dog owner is probably you everyday:


They wake you up at 5am to go pee.


Then they refuse to go back to sleep even though your alarm doesn't go off for another two hours.


They beg you for kibbles like they're starving to death.


And you even share your own food with them because they look so cute when they ask for a bite.


They make you feel guilty for leaving them at home all day while you're at work.


So you give them extra snacks when you come home.


And coming home is the best part of your day because they're always so excited to see you.


However, you sometimes get impatient when they just stand around outside and eat grass instead of actually pooping.


And even though they're on a diet, you give in and give them extra snacks because they're so darn cute.


They get jealous when you do anything else that takes attention away from them.


And when it's time for bed, they need a lot of space.


But they look so cute and comfy that you don't want to disturb them.


So you deal with your six inches of blanket.


Because even though they annoy you sometimes, they're still your best friend and you wouldn't change them for the world.

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.

The Great Christmas Movie Debate

"A Christmas Story" is the star on top of the tree.

The Great Christmas Movie Debate
Mental Floss

One staple of the Christmas season is sitting around the television watching a Christmas movie with family and friends. But of the seemingly hundreds of movies, which one is the star on the tree? Some share stories of Santa to children ("Santa Claus Is Coming to Town"), others want to spread the Christmas joy to adults ("It's a Wonderful Life"), and a select few are made to get laughs ("Elf"). All good movies, but merely ornaments on the Christmas tree of the best movies. What tops the tree is a movie that bridges the gap between these three movies, and makes it a great watch for anyone who chooses to watch it. Enter the timeless Christmas classic, "A Christmas Story." Created in 1983, this movie holds the tradition of capturing both young and old eyes for 24 straight hours on its Christmas Day marathon. It gets the most coverage out of all holiday movies, but the sheer amount of times it's on television does not make it the greatest. Why is it,
then? A Christmas Story does not try to tell the tale of a Christmas miracle or use Christmas magic to move the story. What it does do though is tell the real story of Christmas. It is relatable and brings out the unmatched excitement of children on Christmas in everyone who watches. Every one becomes a child again when they watch "A Christmas Story."

It's the most wonderful time of the year! Christmas is one of my personal favorite holidays because of the Christmas traditions my family upholds generation after generation. After talking to a few of my friends at college, I realized that a lot of them don't really have "Christmas traditions" in their family, and I want to help change that. Here's a list of Christmas traditions that my family does, and anyone can incorporate into their family as well!

It’s here; that time of year when college students turn into preschoolers again. We cry for our mothers, eat everything in sight, and whine when we don’t get our way. It’s finals, the dreaded time of the semester when we all realize we should have been paying attention in class instead of literally doing anything else but that. Everyone has to take them, and yes, unfortunately, they are inevitable. But just because they are here and inevitable does not mean they’re peaches and cream and full of rainbows. Surviving them is a must, and the following five phases are a reality for all majors from business to art, nursing to history.
