6 Reasons Everyone Needs An English Bulldog In Their Life
Tori Whidden

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!!!

8 Things I Realized After My First Semester In College

Actually, Kylie Jenner, 2018 is the year of realizing things.

The first semester of college is famous for being one of the most difficult transitions of one's young adult life. You're thrown into a completely new area where the majority of the people surrounding you are strangers in an academic environment that's much more challenging then what you've grown accustomed to for the past twelve years. On top of that, you probably share a room with another person (or even multiple people) on the lumpiest "mattress" you've ever slept on.

With this change comes a lot of questions: what do I want to major in? What am I passionate about? Is what I'm passionate about something I'm actually good at? Why does the bathroom smell like cranberry juice and vodka? What is that thing at the bottom of the shower drain?

6 Unrealistic Expectations Society Has For Young Adults

Don't let the thesaurus-inspired vocabularies in our résumés fool you. We're actually just big kids.

Well over four feet tall and 100 pounds in weight, many of us "young adults" of the world still consider ourselves children. Big, working, college-attending, beer-drinking children. We may live on our own, know how to cook noodles, and occasionally use a planner, but don't be fooled; the youthful tendencies that reside within us still make their way into our daily lives. From choosing to stay up until 3:00 a.m. playing video games on a school night to going out in 30 degree weather without a coat, we still make decisions that our parents and grandparents would shake their heads at in disappointment. So why are we expected to know exactly how to be a wise, professional, sensible adult? It's not that we're irresponsible (for the most part, anyway). It's that we are young, inexperienced, and still have the sought-after, enthusiastic mentality that we can do and be whatever we want, which has not yet been tarnished by the reality of the world. These are just a few of the unrealistic expectations that society has for young adults.
