He Is Your President

I don't love him, but we can't change the votes

Nov 10, 2016

I know most are not happy with the outcome of this election, I am not thrilled by any means either, but there is nothing we can do now, so we have to accept it. The jokes about leaving the country if Trump becomes president were all fun and games until he actually became out president-elect. As much as it pains me to think about having a Mr. President Trump, it is now becoming a reality. Trust me, I am just as guilty as the other anti-trump people of not accepting the fact that he is our president and spreading the fear across Facebook and Twitter. When I face a difficult or bad situation, I try to look on the brighter side and find good things in the non-ideal situation. I went through some of the things that Trump plans to do in his first 100 days in office and found a few good things that is planning on doing.

1. Trump plans on getting rid of the corruption in Washington

He wants to implement term limits on Congressmen and women to avoid any one member from always winning the election. He also wants to impose a complete ban on foreign lobbyists raising money for American elections.

2. Trump is planning on working with Congress to introduce some broader legislative measures

He plans on introducing the School Choice And Education Opportunity Act which will relocate education funds to allow parents full choice on how and where to educate their children. It will also eliminate common core and allows the education supervision to be localized. The act will also make 2 and 4 year colleges more affordable.

Trump plans on introducing the Repeal and Replace Obamacare Act. This would replace Obamacare with a Health Savings Accounts, the ability to purchase health insurance across state lines, and it would allow states to manage Medicaid funds. This would also loosen the strings on the FDA and allow lifesaving medications to be legalized.

I know this is not much to look forward to these next four years that Trump will be in office, but it is better than nothing. Hillary Clinton stated that she wants us to come together to work with our next President in order for this country to stay united as one. We have to keep moving forward and allow Trump to show us how he is going to operate in the White House.

We need to stop the protests and riots and the "He is not my President" nonsense. Some people have stated that we let hate win when Trump was elected to be out next President but I say that if we stay together and work with Trump instead of against him, hate will never, ever win.

Ask friends of mine to name a quality about me, and one a lot them will point out the fact that I am almost always smiling. I like to laugh and smile -- not to quote Buddy the Elf in April, but smiling is my favorite! It is probably my favorite go-to expression. However, what a lot of people do not see is that I have my down days. I have days when smiling and laughing is a real struggle, or when I have so much on my plate that going out of my way to behappy takes more effort than I have stored in me. Be it a symptom of college and growing up or a facet of life, I cannot always be content.

11 Ways To Live The Best Life You Can

Life is full of twists and turns, but you have to keep going.

Sam Houston State University

Life is all about twist and turns, sideways and which ways. Nothing is permanent, so we should take risks, and chase our dreams. We are taught at a young age many lessons that will follow us into adulthood. What we aren't taught is how to feel, and how we handle those emotions. We just have to figure them out ourselves, and that's not fun. In my 21 years of living, I have come to know that way too many people can't handle emotions, or the fact that not everyone is dead inside like them. When you're like me, and you have zero control over your emotions, it's hard to feel comfortable around people who aren't so in touch with themselves. As much as I would like to feel nothing at times, I've accepted who I am and the fact that I can cry over practically nothing. So, there are some things in life that you just have to do.

The world is not always sunshine and rainbows, and you do not have to be, either.

It would be so much easier to just pay someone to do it for you

1. Figuring out when to start

2. Searching through list after list to get everything you need

3. Shopping for deals

4. Getting bins to put everything in

5. Figuring what you can’t live without

6. Going through clothes to find what you need

7. Finding out your siblings took something from you

8. Fighting with your parents.

9. Trying to plan things with your roommate

10. The fear of forgetting something

11. Move in day

Relatable moments from one of the best shows I have ever watched.

1. When you fail that midterm you studied so hard for.

2. When your crush finally texts back.

3. When payday comes around.

4. When you accidentally like someone's picture from 108 weeks ago.

5. When someone takes your unassigned assigned seat.

6. When your favorite character in your favorite TV series dies.

7. When that guy/girl you’ve been crushing on agrees to go on a date with you.

8. When you have so much to do, and such little motivation to do it.

9. When someone asks for your last fry.

10. When you try a new health-food craze.

11. When you get new clothing.

12. When you check your bank account.

13. When they're serving good food in the dining hall.

14. When someone tries to tell you what to do.

15. Or just your thoughts about life in general.

We all have that "I don't care" attitude.

1. Most students just take life day by day.

2. That means procrastinating, one day at a time.

3. College students don't mind dressing like crap sometimes.

4. In fact, dressing nice feels weird.

5. College students get so stressed that they contemplate dropping on a daily basis.

6. But most find another solution to deal with that stress.

7. And that solution can be pretty cheap. Anything over $5 is expensive.

8. One of the only things college students will spend money on is coffee.

9. College is just really expensive and you never forget how expensive it is.

10. But hey, we're getting a somewhat high-quality education, right?

11. We all really just want to pet dogs all day.

12. And eat pizza for every meal.

13. And stab the next person who asks us what we want to do with our life.

14. However, despite the stress and student loans, college is amazing and there's plenty of reasons to smile.

Thank you, April, for inspiring us with your wicked relatability.

Life is full of twists and turns, but you have to keep going.

1. Wallow.

2. Cry.

3. Get Angry.

4. Tell Someone You Love Them.

5. Forgive.

6. Let go of the negative people in your life.

7. Be yourself.

8. Swallow Your Pride.

9. Stop Freaking Out Over Your Body.

10. Say No.

11. Accept Love.
