Make Kanye Great Again?

What I Hope Kanye And Trump Discussed During Their Meeting

President-elect Donald Trump had an important meeting last Tuesday. No, he wasn't being briefed on intel or discussing his business conflicts or even thinking about the alleged Russian cyber attacks. He was meeting with Kanye West.

As soon as Kanye walked into Trump Tower in NYC, speculation as to what they could possibly have to talk about hit the internet. Although Kanye said later in a tweet that the two discussed "multicultural issues," here's a list of other important topics I hope were brought up.

1. Kanye's meltdown

For both of their sakes, I'm hoping that Kanye addressed the elephant (no political party pun intended) in the room. In late November, after cancelling the remaining 21 shows on his Saint Pablo tour, Kanye was hospitalized and put on psychiatric hold. His meeting with Trump was his first public appearance since being released. Kanye has kept quiet about the incident publicly, but if anyone were going to get the inside scoop, it would probably be the future leader of the free world.

2. Running for president

At one point, Kanye announced his plan to run for president in 2020. While most Americans didn't take Kanye seriously, maybe they should have. After all, Trump has shown that anything is possible when it comes to winning a presidential race. But from the looks of Kanye's tweet later that day, he's willing to wait until 2024 to give Trump a shot at eight years in the White House.

3. Yeezys

Every shoe fanatic knows that Kanye's trademark Yeezy shoes for Adidas are some of the most iconic shoes of our time, but what could help 'Ye finally win the Adidas-Nike rivalry once and for all? Making Yeezys the official shoe of the United States of America would probably increase Adidas' market share. Thoughts, President Trump?

4. Making Kanye Great Again

Can you just imagine Trump trying to impress Kanye by rapping "I Miss the Old Kanye" to Kanye? Trump even had the pink polo; he thought he was Kanye.

5. Hair

Although Donald Trump's hair has always been a famous entity of its own, Kanye's hair just recently began getting buzz when he showed up to their meeting with bleached blonde hair.

6. The "Famous" Video

Have you forgotten about this music video? You probably wouldn't have if you were one of the people featured. I wonder what Trump thought. Was he appalled? Did he appreciate the artistry? Would he rather have been placed by Taylor Swift instead of Rihanna? So many questions.

7. A cabinet appointment

Who cares if Kanye didn't even vote? While the majority of the United States didn't take his announcement seriously, Trump probably should. It's the thought that counts, right? With a presidential run in his near future, it couldn't hurt for Kanye to dive into the swamp now. How does "Secretary of Being More Influential Than Steve Jobs" sound, Mr. West?

8. Conspiracy theories

Neither Kanye nor Trump are new to the world of accusing things of being rigged. Prior to the election, Trump speculated that it would be rigged, and even more recently accused the media of working against him. Kanye, on the other hand, threatened to boycott the 2017 Grammy Awards if he wasn't nominated for Album of the Year. Maybe these two are onto something and the world really is out to get them.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
