From a Millennial Republican.

Hi.

I have been called many names these past couple of days: racist, fascist, lover of the KKK, and best friend to the confederate gun lovers. Okay, let's stop right there. Why are you calling me so many names when I haven't called you any? Exactly, there is no point. I am none of those things.

Please stop. We have done nothing wrong except for supporting our president-elect as you should be doing too. We would of gotten upset, mad, and wanted to punch something if our elect hadn't won, but we wouldn't of wanted to start a riot, thrown around horrible names at y'all, or anything else. We would of sucked it up and supported Hillary. Sure, we don't like her as much as y'all do but we wouldn't of handled the decision.

We are the generation that a few years from now is going to be divided and our parents, grandparents, etc. will not be there to get us to stop. We shouldn't be that way. I'm not telling you that you can't have your own opinions, or that have to be quiet about how you feel about the election. All I am asking you is to take a deep breathe and just get through the week. Everything will be okay.

How do you know how he will be in office? I don't, nobody does. How do you know how Hillary would of been in the office? You don't. He might of said things that you didn't like and it caused you not to vote for him, but people are a lot different when they have the responsibilities of actually being president. He might not be the best, but he might also not be the worst. He might actually surprise you.

As a Republican, I have been called many names more than what I've listed above. I for one, do not walk around, calling Democrats nasty names. So why should we all? As a Republican, I am here if you need someone to talk too. To get away from all the crazy politics. I will listen to your opinions as to why he isn't going to be a good president as long as you listen to my opinions. We will get through this, one foot at a time. We will be okay. We will defend each others rights and what we believe in without fighting each other. This is your country too.

Let's "make America whole again." Or better yet, let's "make America equal again." Because if we don't, it will be on us.

Sincerely,

A Millennial Republican.

In honor of Mother’s Day, I have been thinking of all the things my mom does for my family and me. Although I couldn’t write nearly all of them, here are a few things that moms do for us.

They find that shirt that’s right in front of you, but just you can’t seem to find.

10 Reasons To Thank Your Best Friend

Take the time to thank that one friend in your life you will never let go of.

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Being sick in college is really tough and definitely not a fun experience. Here are the 15 stages that everyone ends up going through when they are sick at college.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
