Leslie Knope For President

Leslie Knope for President 2016.

Yup, sounds good to me. There's something about that just roles of the tongue and is music to my ears. Leslie Knope, what an extraordinary woman. She always goes above and beyond to satisfy the people of the small Indiana town Pawnee. For those of you living under a rock, Leslie Knope is the deputy director of the Parks and Recreation Department for Pawnee's local government. We all know that we don't know who we want to vote for in the upcoming presidential election. All I know is I'm voting for Leslie Knope and this is why you should, too.

1. She's not afraid to say no.


2. She is already homies with congress.


3. She is very organized. And has her priorities straight.


4. And so is her sense of budget.


5. She keeps it 100 hunnid in every situation.


6. She knows how to dress for success.


7. And how to inspire not only others, but herself.


8. She makes a better Hilary Clinton than Hilary does.


9. She is willing to sacrifice sleep for her job.


10. And most importantly she knows the responsibilities she will take on and can handle them with ease.

At times it may seem like she doesn't have a plan or doesn't know what she's doing but whatever she is doing, she's giving it 150 percent. Her heart is as full as Ron Swansons mustache, and she loves the people around her as much as Donna loves her Benz. How many times did Knope sacrifice her own time and decisions for the good of the citizens of Pawnee? She is willing to do everything in her power to accomplish not only her dreams but the dreams of the people around her. Although Leslie cannot actually run for president, we all wish she could. So on voting day when you're standing in that tiny little booth just think "what would Leslie do?"

I leave you with the final words of Leslie Knope, "I'm running because I want to improve the lives of the people that I love and the city that's the greatest city in the world."

So don't forget y'all, Vote Knope 2016!!

In honor of Mother’s Day, I have been thinking of all the things my mom does for my family and me. Although I couldn’t write nearly all of them, here are a few things that moms do for us.

They find that shirt that’s right in front of you, but just you can’t seem to find.

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
