My Dogs and I

Who said animals could not be your best friends?

My Dogs and I
Cheniliz Lopez

Rusty was my best friend and will always be my best friend even if he is no longer here with us. Even though he is gone, I still have three other wonderful dogs that are always happy to see me just like he was. Rex is the oldest, then Rio and then baby Rambo is the youngest. Just so you all can now who is who, Rex is a Maltese/poodle mix, Rio is a Yorkshire/terrier mix and finally, Rambo is a Chihuahua/terrier mix. Even though they all have different personalities, they all get along really well and are always playing with one another which warms my heart.

Rusty would always be next to me and when I needed to vent about something, he was there. That was our thing. That was how he would make me feel better about different situations I would have in my life. Whenever I was finished venting, he would rest his head on my leg and just look at me like if he saying “Cheni, it’s okay.” Rusty used to enjoy chasing birds all over the back yard and he looked so funny doing so because it was impossible to catch any of them. Whenever he would do this, it would make me laugh so much until my stomach started hurting.

Just like Rusty would listen to me always, Rex does so as well. He will usually sit next to me on the couch while I am busy doing homework or watching TV. If I get up to do something around the house, he will get up as well and follow me around to make sure I am not leaving him. He is around 15 pounds and although he is not so small, he gets scared of a lot of things. If he hears a strange noise, he will go hide under the table like if it were to protect him and it is so adorable.

Rio is a bit different than Rusty because he usually does not like to sit next to me because he prefers my dad over me. He likes to do his own thing, be on his own and loves to bark. Loves to bark. He also enjoys chewing on everything he can get his mouth on and enjoys going for a quick swim. When I see him swim, I feel so much joy and happiness.

Last but not least, Rambo, the baby of the family. My puppy is the cutest thing ever. He loves to run and chase his two older brothers and enjoys to bite their ears. He also happens to jump and chase after me when I get home after a long day of not being home. Rambo also enjoys to give lots of kisses and likes to be the center of attention whenever he meets new people.

My dogs are one in a million and I would never trade them for anything.

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.

Blair Waldorf
Stop Hollywood

For those of you who have watched "Gossip Girl" before (and maybe more than just once), you know how important of a character Blair Waldorf is. Without Blair, the show doesn’t have any substance, scheme, or drama. Although the beginning of the show started off with Blair’s best friend Serena returning from boarding school, there just simply is no plot without Blair. With that being said, Blair’s presence in the show in much more complex than that. Her independent and go-getter ways have set an example for "Gossip Girl" fans since the show started and has not ended even years after the show ended. Blair never needed another person to define who she was and she certainly didn’t need a man to do that for her. When she envisioned a goal, she sought after it, and took it. This is why Blair’s demeanor encompasses strong women like her.

singing
Cambio

Singing is something I do all day, every day. It doesn't matter where I am or who's around. If I feel like singing, I'm going to. It's probably annoying sometimes, but I don't care -- I love to sing! If I'm not singing, I'm probably humming, sometimes without even realizing it. So as someone who loves to sing, these are some of the feelings and thoughts I have probably almost every day.
