Lauren Jauregui: Someone To Keep An Eye Out

Some may know the name Lauren Jauregui from the girl band, Fifth Harmony, but if you don't already follow her on her social media, she's now becoming one of the top politically spoken influencers in the media at the young age of 20. She's been using her platform to speak about important issues, from Planned Parenthood to sexism.

On January 21, 2017, she took part of the Women's March in 2017. She spoke out to the Nylon Magazine in her interview that she felt frustrated and alone because she was concerned that she was the only one worrying about all of the political and inhumane issues in the world. After she attended the march, she felt overwhelmed by the amount of voices that were chanting her thoughts that she felt no one else had felt. She finishes her interview off with leaving a possible hint of her partaking activism as a future potential career and that love is stronger than hatred.

Jauregui being a Cuban-American, bi-sexual women, who wrote a letter to Trump, addressed that even though she is a three way marginalized person, she won't let his words and careless acts fear her and the millions of other marginalized people as well. She speaks out about how many women may not see what their future could hold because of how politically corrupted the political system is now and that she will not silence her voice, for her sake and for the millions of other people's sake as well.

Again, if you don't already follow Lauren Jauregui on her social media accounts, I highly suggest you do because not only has she inspired me, but millions of others as well, to partake in what's right and to keep your voice heard.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
