10 Pieces Of Advice From Kid President That Got Us Through Our Toughest Days

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jP-gWFR-0HQ

1. When we didn't want to follow through with plans.

Giphy

We've all been in the position where we had a bad day and wanted to cancel our plans. People want you there, so it's true: just you being there does make it awesome.

2. When you felt like you were struggling as a parent.

Giphy

Your kids love you as a parent. They look up to you and value everything you do! Realistically, you're doing a great job and your kids see it, too.

3. When you felt like quitting.

Giphy

You might be an adult, but there's still a force within you to keep you going.

4. When you felt overwhelmed.

Giphy

Kid President gives great advice when it comes to being stressed: pause, breathe, love. It only takes a few minutes to pause and breathe in order to get back on track.

5. When you felt like you didn't matter.

Giphy

You're here for a reason and have a spot on this planet, you matter.

6. When you saw your cousin post something political on Facebook.

Giphy

Post-election Facebook was a battleground full of insults and disagreements. It's okay to disagree, but there's no reason for us to go out of our way to make someone else feel bad about their position.

7. When you someone cut you off driving and you want to hawk them down.

Giphy

... then don't do it. Plain and simple. It won't do anyone any good to go after someone for something that really isn't a big deal.

8. When you felt like no one was listening.

Giphy

You have so much to say and share, people will listen, especially if you have good things to say.

9. When you felt like you didn't know what you're doing.

Giphy

If you're wearing pants and have toilet paper, you're doing a good job being an adult.

10. When you needed encouragement to get up.

Giphy

Straight to the point, let's do it. You don't have to do it alone, but you have to do it.

Kid President is the king of good advice. It's all put in simple terms because we don't need to complicate anything anymore.

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter

morethanwheels

I've been in college for four years now. I spent half my time as a commuter and half as a resident so I've experienced both sides of the housing spectrum. One thing I've learned comparing the two is that my struggles as a commuter far outweigh anything I went through while living on campus. Commuters have to deal with the problems school brings along with a slew of other issues; I've filled up my gas tank in the worst kind of weather conditions and napped in random places in public more times than I'm proud to say of. This is a list of some of the most challenging aspects of being a commuter.
