6 Reasons Everyone Needs An English Bulldog In Their Life

In This Article:

You know how every family claims there is a favorite child and usually there is not. My mom says she loves us just the same, but my little sister swears that I'm the favorite. And of course, I used to think the same about her. She was the one who got away with everything, she's the baby.

Well, everything switched during my senior year in highschool. My family got Eugene. Now, this may sound like we hired a male old nanny to come live with us, but despite the name, he's not human. However, he sure does think he is.

Everyone meet my parent's favorite child, their pride and joy, the one and ONLY Eugene Joseph Whidden:


Yes I know, he's adorable.

And of course I am extremely jealous of his favorite status in the Whidden household, but he really is a great dog. I truly think that everyone deserves to have an English Bulldog in their lives. Here's Why:

1. They're Helpful!

Eugene always tries to help me study and keeps me company while I do my homework.

2. They enjoy spending time with you

Eugene hates being hot, but he hates not being around his humans even more. So, if its a tanning day for me, its a tanning day for Gene!

3. They come to the rescue on boring car rides. 

All you have to say is the 2 magic words: GENE GO! and all the sudden his short and stubby little legs turn into springs and he will be joining you in the car in no time!

4. They're always down for naps 

They sleep as often as you'll let them but they never want to miss out on adventures.

5. They're the funniest dogs on the planet.

Eugene is truly hysterical. He is stubborn but he is loyal and he makes me laugh everyday.

6. Lastly, They're adorable.

Just look at him!!!

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.
