The MTA Sucks

You leave your house with your purse, a cup of coffee at a certain time and you start your day by going to the train station or waiting by the bus stop so you can go to work. Or you leave your house with your book bag at a certain time and go to the train station or the bus stop so you can go to school. You go to work or school, leaving early as possible so you don't get in trouble by your boss or don't get detention because you were late. But it's not you who was really late and it's not your fault that you was late. It's the freaking MTA. The MTA is the one that makes you run late to wherever you have to go especially if you're the one who always go to work early or you're a perfect attendance student or just a great student in general but it's the MTA. Sure the train is faster but it doesn't matter because both transportations have a specific time of when they're going to show up but they never come on time. Which is really ridiculous. Especially since now they're raising the fare when they had just raised it. Do they not even think about how there are some families who are disability and it's hard to come up with change sometimes when the student has a half fare ? Do they not think about how people have rent to pay or bills or even have to pay for food when they need to or when they're hungry so they get a sandwich so they won't starve ? Or think about how we need money to buy clothes, support ourselves, our families just to survive this corrupt world ??? No. Obviously not if they keep raising the fare. They should not raise the fare when they can't even show up on time and as for the schedules that are set up for the times they're supposed to come should not even be there in the first place because they always make people run late to wherever they have to go and that mostly is work and school which are important because with work you need the money to survive and you need an education so you can be successful when you get older. So the MTA can suck it with their fare because they are truly ridiculous. If they're going to raise the fare, they should at least show up on time so we can get to our destination ON TIME.

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.

Winter break is over, we're all back at our respective colleges, and the first week of classes is underway. This is a little bit how that week tends to go.

The professor starts to go over something more than the syllabus

You get homework assigned on the first day of class

There are multiple group projects on the syllabus

You learn attendance is mandatory and will be taken every class

Professor starts chatting about their personal life and what inspired them to teach this class

Participation is mandatory and you have to play "icebreaker games"

Everybody is going out because its 'syllabus week' but you're laying in bed watching Grey's Anatomy

Looking outside anytime past 8 PM every night of this week

Nobody actually has any idea what's happening this entire week

Syllabus week is over and you realize you actually have to try now...or not

Now it's time to get back into the REAL swing of things. Second semester is really here and we all have to deal with it.

Whether you specialized in ringing people up or preparing the food, if you worked at Panera Bread it holds a special place in your heart. Here are some signs that you worked at Panera in high school.

1. You own so many pairs of khaki pants you don’t even know what to do with them

Definitely the worst part about working at Panera was the uniform and having someone cute come in. Please don’t look at me in my hat.

7 Ways to Make Your Language More Transgender and Nonbinary Inclusive

With more people becoming aware of transgender and non-binary people, there have been a lot of questions circulating online and elsewhere about how to be more inclusive. Language is very important in making a space safer for trans and non-binary individuals. With language, there is an established and built-in measure of whether a place could be safe or unsafe. If the wrong language is used, the place is unsafe and shows a lack of education on trans and non-binary issues. With the right language and education, there can be more safe spaces for trans and non-binary people to exist without feeling the need to hide their identities or feel threatened for merely existing.
