A Letter To Rich, Corporate America

To what end will you stop?

A Letter To Rich, Corporate America
Star Tribune

Dear Corporate America,

Your economy is bound to slip from your grasp. Your companies are losing alliance. Your branches are losing their green leaves and those leaves are dying off, one by one, two by two, or in other cases you're clipping them off. You're stuffing your ears with your greasy white handkerchiefs as you count your dollars bills over the cries of millions of people. You turn your face up at anything that does not suit your fabricated therapeutic deism. You paint those different than you as a threat to mankind. Your fear has manifested into one of the most dangerous of behemoths. Those who don't agree must leave your presence. To be quite honest, those who don't agree with you, and are Muslim and/or colored, are now a target.

You may need to re-evaluate some things. What are you going to do when there's no one else left but you? You spit on the hands that you shake. You piss on the hands that feed you. You are as cancer to the Earth; you are as a sword in Mother Nature's spine. You are a corrupt plastic surgeon, a dead man walking. To what end will you stop? You've succeeded in polluting the air and the land that you share with those you see as your inferiors. Anyone who is not you and not of your kind is seen as subpar, or subhuman, we don't need clean air. Clean water is for those who work for it, and clean land is for those who earn it. You'll abuse the poor until the poor are those who make 10 cents less than you...and then who is left?

And so I ask you again, what are you going to do when you've run out of people to do your dishes for you? What are you going to do when you have no one to work in your factories anymore, to make your coffee for you, to grow your food for you? What are you going to do when the oxygen is no longer oxygen; when your source of hydration is as acid to all matter and when the food you eat is no longer consumable? What are you going to do when you've run out of everyone else around you but yourself?

Sincerely,
Real America

Dear High School Friend Group,

My sweet angels, where would I be without you guys. We all grew up together because we either met in middle school or high school and watched each other grow up and get "old." We got to go to prom together and then graduate together. Then watched each other as we continued our lives in college, joining sororities and meeting people who will impact our lives forever. It all has happened so fast.

Oh college, we can’t live with you, but we can’t live without you. It’s a love/hate relationship, really. College is an experience that no one can ever prepare you for, and maybe that’s a good thing. You never really expect any of the things that college encompasses until you are there. College is fun, but don’t have too much fun. C’s get degrees, but they don’t get you into graduate school.

Blair Waldorf

The "Gossip Girl" series may be over, but Blair Waldorf's iconic character lives in our hearts forever. Blair was the queen of the Upper East Side, and a character you either loved or hated. She taught us everything we needed to know about life, love and of course, how to score a Chuck Bass. So the next time you feel a bit lost and are in need of guidance, look no further than to the Queen B herself.

As I spend my Sunday avoiding my homework and other adult responsibilities, I realized that I've watched this series over and over about a million times. Sadly, there isn't a Blair quote I don't know, so I came up with a list of a few favorites. You know you love her...xoxo

College is an endless cycle of crappy, sleepless nights, tedious, boring lectures, and hours of never-ending piles of homework.

Summer: a time (usually) free from school work and a time to relax with your friends and family. Maybe you go on a vacation or maybe you work all summer, but the time off really does help. When you're in college you become super close with so many people it's hard to think that you won't see many of them for three months. But, then you get that text saying, "Hey, clear your schedule next weekend, I'm coming up" and you begin to flip out. Here are the emotions you go through as your best friend makes her trip to your house.
