People Vs. Puppies

The truth is RUFF sometimes

People Vs. Puppies
Samantha Lopez

Dogs are so much better than people for a numerous amount of reasons. For one, dogs will never ever under any circumstances ever really let you down. From the first moment you picked them up from a shelter, kennel, or pet store they've been nothing but a loyal friend to you and those around you. They never fail to bring a smile to someone's face. Not to mention that dogs are incredibly adorable in everything that they do. They have those big, humongous, gorgeous puppy dog eyes that they grow into and just always melt your own heart away. They could basically get away with anything whenever puppy dog eyes come into play and we all know it. It's amazing how they are always so happy and excited to see you.

Unfortunately, humans don't always necessarily have the beloved qualities that in fact most dogs seem to have. For instance, people don't always sense how you're feeling the way dogs do. You could go all day being upset about something or even really excited and some, if not most people won't notice at all but dogs always do. They will either play with you and distract you until you feel like your old self again or share the happy with you while you pet their super soft fur till your heart's content.

Another things dogs are better at than humans is cuddling! Dogs are always there to cuddle and they are so fuzzy, and soft, and warm. No matter what size a dog is, it is the perfect size to cuddle with. Bigger ones can lay beside you or keep your feet warm on a cold winter night at the end of your bed and smaller dogs can even lay on top of you. You can always feel a dog's love for you. Dogs are the most loving creatures and we sometimes take them for granted. We are all they have. They may only be in a part of our lives but we are their entire lives. They love unconditionally. They aren't like humans who may judge others by the color of their skin, how much they weigh, the house they live in, or even the clothes on a person's back.

Dogs are untouched by society and its standards. As long as you take care of them they take care of you. They follow you wherever you go and they never forget you. Dogs are incredibly selfless and I wish we humans could be even just the slightest bit more like dogs. Sure they may make a mistake every now and then and pee on the floor when they get excited or mistake your shoes for a new toy but you gotta admit in the long run they are pretty much the best pet and friend you could have. I mean we all make mistakes. In a way that is the dog's way of being a little human like in their mannerisms. They always forgive us for our mistakes so we should do the same.

We should all take the best care of our dogs and other pets as we can. We owe it to them!

The 5 Painfully True Stages Of Camping Out At The Library

For those long nights that turn into mornings when the struggle is real.

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.

The Great Christmas Movie Debate

"A Christmas Story" is the star on top of the tree.

The Great Christmas Movie Debate
Mental Floss

One staple of the Christmas season is sitting around the television watching a Christmas movie with family and friends. But of the seemingly hundreds of movies, which one is the star on the tree? Some share stories of Santa to children ("Santa Claus Is Coming to Town"), others want to spread the Christmas joy to adults ("It's a Wonderful Life"), and a select few are made to get laughs ("Elf"). All good movies, but merely ornaments on the Christmas tree of the best movies. What tops the tree is a movie that bridges the gap between these three movies, and makes it a great watch for anyone who chooses to watch it. Enter the timeless Christmas classic, "A Christmas Story." Created in 1983, this movie holds the tradition of capturing both young and old eyes for 24 straight hours on its Christmas Day marathon. It gets the most coverage out of all holiday movies, but the sheer amount of times it's on television does not make it the greatest. Why is it,
then? A Christmas Story does not try to tell the tale of a Christmas miracle or use Christmas magic to move the story. What it does do though is tell the real story of Christmas. It is relatable and brings out the unmatched excitement of children on Christmas in everyone who watches. Every one becomes a child again when they watch "A Christmas Story."
