Harambe, why do we miss him?

Well, that is pretty self-explanatory, murdered in cold blood on the 28th of May 2016. Harambe was doing nothing except protecting a young child from who fell into Harambe's home as a result of a mother who lacks situational awareness. Just over 17 years of age, Harambe had a great life ahead of him. This gorilla was to be adored and loved for many years to come by visitors of the Cincinnati Zoo in Cincinnati, Ohio. Whoever the staff member that pulled the trigger on Harambe had absolutely no idea the outrage he was about to cause across the nation. The subject of many internet memes, Harambe is not forgotten, and to the disliking of a messed-up few, he may never be forgotten. Harambe, an international loss, hero in his own right, will be greatly missed, both by his closest friends and those who did not even know of him until that 28th of May. We all miss Harambe, a lovable, 440 pound gorilla, who's only crime was saving the life of a little boy. Even with all of the internet memes, memorials, the sticker on my laptop, he will never be properly remembered.

Bob's Burgers
Adult Swim

Bob's Burgers is arguably one of the best and most well-written shows on tv today. That, and it's just plain hilarious. From Louise's crazy antics to Tina's deadpan self-confidence, whether they are planning ways to take over school or craft better burgers, the Belchers know how to have fun. They may not be anywhere close to organized or put together, but they do offer up some wise words once and awhile.

We're in college, none of us actually have anything together. In fact, not having anything together is one of our biggest stressors. However, there's a few little things that we do ever so often that actually make us feel like we have our lives together.

1. Making yourself dinner

And no this does not include ramen or Annie's Mac & Cheese. Making a decent meal for yourself is one of the most adult things you can do living on campus. And the food is much better than it would be at the dining hall.

I think the hardest thing about going away to college is figuring out how to become an adult. Leaving a household where your parents took care of literally everything (thanks, Mom!) and suddenly becoming your own boss is overwhelming. I feel like I'm doing a pretty good job of being a grown-up, but once in awhile I do something that really makes me feel like I'm #adulting. Twenty-somethings know what I'm talking about.

I went to a small high school, like 120-people-in-my-graduating-class small. It definitely had some good and some bad, and if you also went to a small high school, I’m sure you’ll relate to the things that I went through.

1. If something happens, everyone knows about it

Who hooked up with whom at the party? Yeah, heard about that an hour after it happened. You failed a test? Sorry, saw on Twitter last period. Facebook fight or, God forbid, real fight? It was on half the class’ Snapchat story half an hour ago. No matter what you do, someone will know about it.

Chandler Bing

I'm assuming that we've all heard of the hit 90's TV series, Friends, right? Who hasn't? Admittedly, I had pretty low expectations when I first started binge watching the show on Netflix, but I quickly became addicted.

Without a doubt, Chandler Bing is the most relatable character, and there isn't an episode where I don't find myself thinking, Yup, Iam definitely the Chandler of my friend group.
