Drake for President

I don't know about the rest of you, but quite frankly, I've had enough of the presidential debate and politics this year to send me into hibernation. With all the talk about "making America great again," I've come up with an almost flawless plan: make Drake the next President. How great is that America?

Rapper, songwriter, and lyrical god, Aubrey Drake Graham ("Drake"), also known as Drizzy, is the best candidate I can think of to take the position as the next president of the United States.

Here's why:

1. Drake is in touch with his emotions

He could probably end all current & future wars because of his caring nature and soft, tender side. He knows wrong from right and could easily win anyone over with his charming smile.

"Wish you would learn to love people and use things. And not the other way around."

2. He is determined to be the best

Every great leader should have a good tactic and ability to crush their opponents, you know, just in case. Drake proved his superiority in the rap game when Meek Mill called him out on Twitter. Instead of being petty and replying through social media, Drake released not one, but two diss tracks and completely shut Meek Mill down. That's how it's done. He single-handedly destroyed that man's rap career and his reputation, not to mention he did it very tastefully.

"It ain’t about who did it first, it’s ’bout who did it right."

3. Drake is a legend

Is there really much more to be said about this one? I didn't think so either.

"Oh my God, oh my God; If I die, I'm a legend."

4. He is motivated to succeed

I mean, he started from the bottom, now look where he is. He's here, and he brought his whole team with him.

"Checks bounced, but we bounced back."

5. He doesn't discriminate

Unlike Donald Trump, he doesn't bash certain ethnic parties or threaten to deport anyone out of the country. He is black, white, Jewish and Canadian, and to top it off, he cares about everyone. (Except Meek Mill, of course.)

"Please don't forget I'm black, please don't forget I'm Jewish. I play ball like Lebron and I know what a W-2 is."

6. Drake knows how to handle his money

He could probably pull us out of debt solely based on the last three albums that he's dropped in the past year.

"They be staring at the money like it's unfamiliar, I get it, I live it. To me there's nothing realer. Just enough to solve your problems, cause' too much would kill ya."

7. He has confidence

He has enough for himself and the rest of the country.

"I’m the greatest, man. I said that before I knew I was."

8. He is indestructible

Drake starred in the teen drama series "Degrassi: The Next Generation." He played the character of the modish student Jimmy Brooks, who was confined to a wheelchair. He gets shot by his ex best friend, but look at Drake, still living and whatnot. #Bulletproof

"5 a.m., going to shoot Degrassi up on Morningside. For all the stunting, I'll forever be immortalized."

9. Drake is a mama's boy

He learned a lot of valuable life lessons from his one-of-a-kind mother who taught him a lot about life, and a lot more about love. He has a strong moral compass, and will always respect his mother and her advice.

"At least I'm always being true to what you taught me"

10. If you're reading this, it's too late

No, literally, it's too late now. Plus, Drake was born in Canada, so even though he is considered a U.S. citizen, he isn't a "natural-born" citizen, much like our good pal Ted Cruz.

We can all dream though. #VoteDrake2016

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 clichés, 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 don’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. Don’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 you’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. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’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?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week.

Others have slaved away many nights under the fluorescent lights, and are slightly annoyed to find their study space being invaded by amateurs. While these newbies wander aimlessly around the first floor, hopelessly trying to find a table, the OGs of the library are already on the third floor long tables deep into their studies. Here is a few signs that you may live in the library, whether you'd like to admit it or not.
