Dear Donald Trump,

Coming from a very liberal democrat, I hope that you do succeed as president.

Dear Donald Trump,
slate

There has been a lot on my mind since the election, and I felt as if I wanted to address my political opinions publically. His inauguration is so soon, and this liberal democrat has a lot to say.

Dear Donald Trump,

I may not be a republican, or agree with the decisions you make as president, but I will trust your judgement. You will be president, and be trained on matters I will never comprehend. You are in charge of my country, and I hope that you take good care of it. I love this country, which is why I am hoping you succeed. I do not hope for your failure, or anything bad happen to you, because I know that if you were to fail, it would be terrible for everyone.

I do hope that when you become president that you keep us millennials in mind. I don’t expect you to make democratic decisions, because that is just unrealistic. However, if you do hope to get reelected, it is the younger generation that matters. Please listen to our wants and our issues, because we need someone to help put our plans into actions. The younger people are this country’s future, and I hope that you don’t forget about that.

Despite me not voting for you, or agreeing with the things you say, I do hope you prove me, and a lot of other people wrong. I hope that you can create more jobs, and help our country the way you plan on it. Because a majority of this country elected you as our leader, I will try and stand behind and understand why they did. I will try to see you the way that they do.

Please don’t get rid of some of our helpful programs, because they have really done us a lot of good. Planned Parenthood should stay funded, because they help many people all over. Please don’t get rid of the Affordable Care Act completely, instead try revising it. It was a great idea, it just wasn’t so well planned out. It did have some amazing qualities about it, like no one was able to get denied due to previous health problems.

There are a lot of things that I have been thinking about since you became president elect, mostly just things that I worry about. I do understand that we have very different political opinions, and that is okay. Republicans put up with eight years of a great president, a president they didn’t respect or trust. I will do my very best to try and trust you, to respect you, and to see your success. Good luck out there, and please take good care of this beautiful country.

Sincerely,

A Concerned Citizen

Blair Waldorf Quote
"DESTINY IS FOR LOSERS. IT'S JUST A STUPID EXCUSE TO WAIT FOR THINGS TO HAPPEN INSTEAD OF MAKING THEM HAPPEN." - BLAIR WALDORF.

The world stopped in 2012 when our beloved show "Gossip Girl" ended. For six straight years, we would all tune in every Monday at 9:00 p.m. to see Upper Eastside royalty in the form of a Burberry headband clad Blair Waldorf. Blair was the big sister that we all loved to hate. How could we ever forget the epic showdowns between her and her frenemy Serena Van Der Woodsen? Or the time she banished Georgina Sparks to a Christian summer camp? How about that time when she and her girls took down Bart Bass? Blair is life. She's taught us how to dress, how to be ambitious, and most importantly, how to throw the perfect shade.

11 Moments Every College Freshman Has Experienced

Because we made it, and because high school seniors deserve to know what they're getting themselves into

too tired to care

We've all been there. From move-in day to the first finals week in college, your first term is an adventure from start to finish. In honor of college decisions coming out recently, I want to recap some of the most common experiences college freshmen experience.

1. The awkward hellos on move-in day.

You're moving your stuff onto your floor, and you will encounter people you don't know yet in the hallway. They live on your floor, so you'll awkwardly smile and maybe introduce yourself. As you walk away, you will wonder if they will ever speak to you again, but don't worry, there's a good chance that you will make some great friends on your floor!

The college years are a time for personal growth and success. Everyone comes in with expectations about how their life is supposed to turn out and envision the future. We all freak out when things don't go exactly as planned or when our expectations are unmet. As time goes on, we realize that the uncertainty of college is what makes it great. Here are some helpful reminders about life in college.

1. "If I'm wearing black tomorrow, it's because I'm mourning my grade."

2. "Do you want to try ordering Chinese takeout to take back to the stacks?"

3. "This final paper has me questioning if this professor just sucks or is Satan himself."

4. "Is that person over there OK? They've been sleeping for a while."

5. "Why are you online shopping?"

"I want to motivate myself to study."

"Since when do you have money to buy something anyway?"

6. "I wonder how much I could make as a stripper."

7. "There are no stress relief dogs, and I feel conned. My stress today is worse than yesterday."

8. "Rate My Professor screwed me over."

9. "I wore these clothes yesterday, and maybe even the day before, but it's fine."

10. "I wonder if I could sneak a beer in here."

11. "I just really want chocolate chip cookies."

Dear High School Friend Group,

My sweet angels, where would I be without you guys. We all grew up together because we either met in middle school or high school and watched each other grow up and get "old." We got to go to prom together and then graduate together. Then watched each other as we continued our lives in college, joining sororities and meeting people who will impact our lives forever. It all has happened so fast.
