You have your opinion and I have mine. Never let that get in between a friendship.

To My Friends Who Voted For Donald Trump

First off let me start by saying, it's okay.

It's okay that you voted for a man that I do not and will not support. You see him in a different way then I do and I can't change your view on him. If he is what's best in your eyes then I will respect that. After this past election, I've realized that A LOT of people have very strong opinions over Trump and Clinton. Some share their opinions in peaceful protests or social media; others will take it to another level which is not always the most logical.

Although we do not agree on our political views, I will still hear what you have to say about supporting Mr.Trump; I will listen to your opinion because I would want you to hear me out about my support going towards Mrs.Clinton. It's okay that we don't agree on politics because in the end you're still my best friend; you still have been in my life for so long and through many ups and downs. I would never dare let ONE election get in between our friendship.

I'm happy that you're strong enough to share your voice and make a stand for what you believe in. It's important for you to always keep your head held high and ignore the negative comments people may have over supporting Trump. You have your own opinion, I will have mine and others will have theres.

If you want to participate in a peaceful protest or share your feelings about the election over social media then I will encourage you to do so. Your voice should be heard and not held by silence. Your beliefs are what make you the person you are today and nothing should ever get in the way of that. Even though I'm not happy that you support Trump, I will stand by your side no matter what. You are important and so is this country.

Love,

Your Democratic Friend

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.

If you’re anything like me, you love a good cup of coffee. My coffee always comes from Starbucks; I refuse to drink it from anywhere else. Over the years, it’s become one of my biggest addictions.

College involves a whirlwind of emotions, whether it’s from the stress of an assignment (or twenty), or from fighting with your roommate. It can be overwhelming at times and it’s important to take a step a back and calmly think things over. Maybe gain some perspective. The following aren’t foolproof tips and may not apply to you, but I was able to find success with them (hope you do too!)
