TV, movies, and music all have us thinking that gold diggers are these evil women walking around with fake boobs and six inch heels looking at your name brand suits and Rolex watches to see if you're making enough money for her standards. But isn't that a little unrealistic? I think on some level we are all gold diggers to some extent. And that's okay. No one should be judged because they want someone who's going to be able to take care of them and their family if or when the time comes.

At this point in my life I'm not desperately searching for a boyfriend or even someone to go on a couple dates. But when the time comes when I do want that, is it really so bad that I want someone with a little extra money? I mean it's not like I'm going on dates asking what your net worth is, but I certainly will think twice if you tell me you're an "aspiring actor" versus if you tell me you're a doctor.

And while I may joke around with my friends about marrying a wealthy doctor so I don't have to ever work, I'm certainly no gold digger by traditional standards. (Most girls who joke like that are just speaking from pure laziness, trust me. I'd know.) But I do want to know you're going to be able to support me if the time comes when I lose the ability to support myself.

Like most modern day women, I plan on being a strong, independent woman, financially. I never want to feel trapped in a relationship, and constantly relying on my spouse for money. And I don't plan on ever being like that. I've seen how that works out and it's not pretty.

So I think at this point we can all agree now, being a gold digger is not the end of the world! I mean for christ's sake, aren't we all just a little bit of a gold digger? We should all have respect for someone who is going after what they want. And finding someone who can support them. Years from now, don't you want to be happy, feel secure, and be financially stable? I don't want my children to worry about paying for college or taking out so many loans they're drowning in debt. And if that means finding a husband with a fat wallet, so be it.

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?

sisters

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.
