10 Times Having A Cat Makes Your Life Better, Including When They're Definitely Judging You
Lindsey Lott

I recently just got a cat, and these are the perks that I have noticed in my life in the past week since I got her.

1. Constant entertainment

Literally... they will be having a spaz attack at 10 p.m. and you just can't help but to laugh hysterically.

2. Always enough judgment to go around

With my cat, I always feel like she is judging me. To what I wear, to my friends, and everything in-between.

3. Snuggle buddies... when they want to be sweet

They love to snuggle, but it has to be on their time. If you have a cat, you understand this. If you don't have a cat, if they don't want to lay down with you, they just won't. But if your cat is sweet like mine, she will :)

4. They are low maintenance

Cats are nothing like puppies or other animals. They don't have to be under constant surveillance. And if you had to leave them at home alone, it would not be a problem since they do their own thing anyway.

5. They are interested in anything that moves

Lasers, toys, balls. You name it, a cat (a kitten even more so) will chase it and play with it. I once bought my cat a toy, and she played with the wrapper, not the toy.

From my cat: they type on your keyboard for you.

7. Always waiting on you when you get home

Always! There is just something about having an animal be excited to see you that warms my heart.

8. Use a litter box

There is no need have to spend extensive amount of time potty training them. For the most part, it is an instinct. They know where they are suppose to go to the bathroom. However, you just need to make sure the litter box is always easily accessible.

9. They do not destroy everything

You can leave shoes, homework, books, and a number of other things on the ground or out in the open, and you won't have to worry about it being totally destroyed when you come back home.

10. They will be your best friend

There, I said it, a cat can and will be your best friend. Just give them the love and affection they need.

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

sisters

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.

If you’re anything like me, you love a good cup of coffee. My coffee always comes from Starbucks; I refuse to drink it from anywhere else. Over the years, it’s become one of my biggest addictions. So, if you are aware that you’re a Starbucks addict as well, or maybe you need to check to see if you’re an addict, here are seven ways to tell.

It can be overwhelming at times and it’s important to take a step a back and calmly think things over. Maybe gain some perspective. The following aren’t foolproof tips and may not apply to you, but I was able to find success with them (hope you do too!)
