Yes, The "Game Of Thrones" Ending Was Not Ideal, But Grow Up

I understand, the ending is not ideal, but we have bigger issues to worry about other than the ending of a fantasy show.

Yes, The "Game Of Thrones" Ending Was Not Ideal, But Grow Up

*Spoiler Alert*

Bran Stark aka Bran the Broken becomes king and everyone's favorite heroine, Daenerys Targaryen, dies because she became the mad queen. The new court exiled Jon Snow to the north of the wall, and Sansa becomes the queen of The North. Tyrion Lannister gets away with treason and is the real winner of the "Game of Thrones" by maintaining power as the hand of the king.

For the past eight years, we the fans have fallen in love with the fantasy world that George R.R. Martin created, giving us a leeway out the insane reality we have to face every day. Sunday's ending was not satisfying for most people and people are angry to the point where people created and signed petitions demanding a remake of the whole season. I agree that the season was rushed and had significant plot holes in characters, but am I raging mad? No, I'm not, and many of the fans can say I'm not angry because I am a "new fan," which is true because I didn't get into the show until January 2019.

Nevertheless, with the amount of outrage that the fans gave towards the show, that same amount of anger brought forth could have been used to fix the horrible reality that we are in today. No matter what political party you align with, we all have to admit that politics sucks, especially since some of the decisions made recently impact a lot of people. With that amount of outrage given towards a fantasy TV show, the same anger could have changed the world.

I understand some people who liked the show since day one and were disappointed with the ending, I know it will take some time to heal from this unfair fast-paced season, but do not get so angry because there are more things to be outraged about and things will get better soon.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?
