The Kardashian Cult

Have they become the new normal?

The Kardashian Cult
E! Online

It has come a daily thing to hear the Kardashian name either positively or negatively, but no matter what, you hear this family is one of the most influential famous families. When we think of influential people, we might consider someone who has helped society one way or another. Unfortunately, this family has only given society drama and pointless problems.

I’m not going to lie; I have watched the show “Keeping Up with The Kardashians” just because I was curious to see what the big deal was about. Some of my friends constantly watch the show and, in a way, idolize them, which really surprises me because I still don’t understand what the big fuss is about. As I watch some episodes, I can’t help but laugh at the way they talk and act. When someone loses something, like an earring, we get upset, but we soon get over it because it was just something insignificant that can later be replaced unless it was something meaningful. The Kardashians, on the other hand, act like it’s the end of the world and their lives will forever be meaningless.

I’m sure I’m not the only who thinks about this, but what can we positively learn from all this phenomenon? Young women get the idea that they have to look and act a certain way in order to be idolized like the Kardashians. I understand that they are celebrities and all they do is get attention and money by providing entertainment, but at the same time they don’t encourage young people to do something more than care too much about what they look like and what new trends they have to follow. In a way, we can consider them a cult because they have so many followers who want to be like them, and we have to consider if this is good for society or not. We should consider them as celebrities and not try to imitate their lives because there is so much more we can do to better ourselves. We shouldn’t take them so seriously because their jobs is just to entertain us, for us to watch their show at the end of the day when we come home and need to relax.

Mistakes are something we all make, no matter how old we get. Most of the time, the mistakes we made are little and sometimes due to something out of our control. Yet, there are mistakes that are bigger than others. Personally, I have mistakes that I wish I could go back and undo. Here they are:

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.
