As of January 20, 2017, Donald Trump has been sworn in as our new President of the United States. Personally, I am not excited. I've made my opinions on the new president very clear, and I feel the same way about his new cabinet picks as I do about him—I am displeased. So in good humor and good fun, I have compiled a list of 15 things that I would rather have as a president than Donald J. Trump.

1. The caterpillar that looks like his hair.

While I'm not 100 percent sure, I feel like this caterpillar from South America would do an infinitely better job.

2. A literal toddler.

Our new president already has the temperament of a toddler, so this wouldn't be too far off. The toddler might make less racist/xenophobic/sexist comments.

3. President Schwarzenegger from "The Simpsons Movie."

He was elected to lead, not to read. While he did get all of Springfield put under quarantine, still preferable than Trump.

4. Stubbs the Cat.

The small town of Talkeetna, Alaska has elected Stubbs thecat as their mayor for the past 19 years.

I can think of no one more qualified to lead the free world.

5. This dog wearing a suit.

Okay so I may have spoken too soon. This sharply dressed pup is infinitely more qualified than Stubbs, sorry Stubbs. 10/10 would elect.

6. Richard Nixon's head.

But only his head. I don't want the rest of him. If his head is attached to his body, he has no chance of winning.

7. That kid who really likes turtles.

"What are your views on foreign policy?" "I like turtles."

8. Cory Baxter.

It's time to put Cory back in the house! #CoryInTheHouse2020

9. President/Mr. Garrison.

While he is a bit (read:a LOT)

more offensive than Trump, somehow still preferable. Vice President Jenner definitely included.

10. Pedro.

Not only does he have really cool campaign T-shirts and buttons, he offers you his protection. And would most likely have Napoleon Dynamite as his vice president and who doesn't want that?

11. The Zodiac Killer.

AKA Senator Ted Cruz. Okay, I know Ted Cruz probably isn't the Zodiac Killer but I just couldn't help myself.

12. Kanye West.

All I have to say about this is #Kanye2020.

13. Professor Umbridge.

The most hated woman, nay character, in the entire "Harry Potter" universe. Still better than Trump.

14. Team Rocket.

Prepare for trouble America, and better make it double

15. Darth Vader

Bonus points if Kylo Ren is his tantrum-throwing VP.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.

Thanksgiving break is over and Christmas is just around the corner and that means, for most college students, one hellish thing — finals week. It's the one time of year in which the library becomes over populated and mental breakdowns are most frequent. There is no way to avoid it or a cure for the pain that it brings. All we can do is hunker down with our books, order some Dominos, and pray that it will all be over soon. Luckily, we are not alone in this suffering. To prove it, here are just a few of the many deranged thoughts that go through a college student's mind during finals week.

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.
