The Man Who Predicted The Election
Variety

I will admit it. I am not into politics in regard to the issues and controversies. But this past election grabbed my attention as it has become the biggest upset throughout the nation. It's November 8, 2016, Election Day, where people have an opportunity to run to the polls and make their vote count. The citizens sit and wait for the results as the race comes to a close. Then Donald Trump gets elected to take over the chair in the oval office. The next day, anti-Trump protesters throughout the nation marched and expressed their disappointment by roaming the streets of cities such as Los Angeles and New York. Protesters stood in front of the Trump Towers and chanted "Not my president" and other phrases. People driving around listening and turning up the volume of the song, "F--- Donald Trump" by hip hop artist YG. Celebrities express their opinions through social media on the outcome and persuade people to come together as a nation.

As citizens were shocked, there are questions on how he was able to get the victory over Hillary Clinton. My father showed me a video about a man who made his predictions that Trump was going to be elected. The man was filmmaker and writer, Michael Moore. Moore made statements on how the American people will most likely vote Trump instead of Hillary. What caught my attention was his confidence in his prediction.

"On November 8 (Election Day), the dispossessed will walk into the voting booth, be handed a ballot, close the curtain and put a big f---ing 'X' in the box of the man who has threatened to overturn the very system that will ruin their lives, Donald J. Trump," says Moore.

He felt that people who have lost their jobs and weren't able to make a living with the low income of money would rather have Trump as elected president. Watching this video made me believe it even more, but the outcome was shocking on Election Day.

The video concludes with Moore making the statement, "Trump's election is going to be the biggest f--- you ever recorded in human history."

Here is the video:

I think the hardest thing about going away to college is figuring out how to become an adult. Leaving a household where your parents took care of literally everything (thanks, Mom!) and suddenly becoming your own boss is overwhelming. I feel like I'm doing a pretty good job of being a grown-up, but once in awhile I do something that really makes me feel like I'm #adulting. Twenty-somethings know what I'm talking about.

I went to a small high school, like 120-people-in-my-graduating-class small. It definitely had some good and some bad, and if you also went to a small high school, I’m sure you’ll relate to the things that I went through.

1. If something happens, everyone knows about it

Who hooked up with whom at the party? Yeah, heard about that an hour after it happened. You failed a test? Sorry, saw on Twitter last period. Facebook fight or, God forbid, real fight? It was on half the class’ Snapchat story half an hour ago. No matter what you do, someone will know about it.

Chandler Bing

I'm assuming that we've all heard of the hit 90's TV series, Friends, right? Who hasn't? Admittedly, I had pretty low expectations when I first started binge watching the show on Netflix, but I quickly became addicted.

Without a doubt, Chandler Bing is the most relatable character, and there isn't an episode where I don't find myself thinking, Yup, Iam definitely the Chandler of my friend group.

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!
