Enough is Enough

The world as we know, revolves around one person. Trump.

Enough is Enough

Since Trump has entered office, all that Americans see on the news, their phones, and computers is Trump. Trump this and Trump that, but has the media every stopped to think that maybe the American people do not want to always hear about every little step he takes? When it comes to be an avid IPhone user myself, I'm sick and tired of getting news notifications about the man in the White House. Enough is enough!

I have stressed in one or more articles before hand that I am not a Trump supporter, and I do believe that American people should know what the leader of the country is doing. I also believe that media should be able to report about all going on as well, but something has to give when it comes to Trump's media take over. The non-stop notifications about his whereabouts, his decisions, and his wrongs have driven me nuts. We get it! Trump is not the best pick for office to most of us, but he's there. Trump is the president and until he gets himself impeached or someone assassinates him, there is absolutely nothing we can do.

Just googling the name Trump gives top stories with titles such as; "What a Failed Trump Administration Looks Like, Is It Time to Call Trump Mentally Ill?" and so on. There's even an article that was posted 15 hours ago on Reuters that says U.S. lawmakers are pushing for answers on Trump team's Russian ties. Instead of making such big deals and stirring the pot for Americans to worry over, why doesn't the FBI or CIA get involved and do an investigation? If hackers were able to hack into Hilary's email and make her look incriminating, why don't hackers hack into Trump's email database and see what the red hair, umpa-lumpa fiend has to hide?

Talking about the wrongs, broadcasting the wrongs, and stirring the pot won't make anything right. Many may say that posting about his actions may get Americans thinking, but I highly doubt this. If Americans were willing to put a business man, TV personality billionaire in the White House, what makes anyone truly believe that most Americans care about what their reading?

Maybe this article that I've written might give you the push you need to actually start caring and advocating for what's right. Maybe you don't care at all, but this is our future. Are you willing to sacrifice history for one man?

28 Daily Thoughts of College Students

"I want to thank Google, Wikipedia, and whoever else invented copy and paste. Thank you."

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.
