Why I am Pissed | The Odyssey Online
Start writing a post

This is why I am pissed. I have latino/a friends, I have Native American friends, I am part of the LGBTQIA+ community, my black friends are everything, I learn from my Muslim/European peers, I Learn my women friends. This is the Millennial generation. If you think this is about republican vs. democratic, you should do your spiritual research. This is more than that. This is about love, and hate. Have every seen a little girl cut herself in the bathroom, because her life has no happiness anymore? Have you ever seen a black man get lynched, having no choice but to say goodbye to this world, because his 'white' brothers and sisters were convinced he was something bad. This more than politics, this is a revolution.

This is the time, the time to change the media. Stop the hate, the lies. You know what, those souther idiots need education. They need love. They have been taught to hate, taught to discriminate. They need US. The blue, the queer, the black, the latino, the muslim, the native, they need US. They cannot help themselves. We wonder how it got this bad, well duhhhhh! How could we not know, it has been implemented in so many hidden ways. Slavery, the constitution, history. We are history, so lets change it. Let us be the generation that said NO. We will not take the hate, we will not let you do your works of evil. We are love, we are the light, fighting in darkness, to help you!

We will be the change. We will not let the lies that are fed to us, get into our spirits. We will help those who are trapped in hate. They are trapped in a world where they think different is what makes us better, different is what saves us. This is a lie that has been told to us, by history, media, and religion. If we do not stand together, we will be eaten apart. We will let the media fill us with lies, with hate. We have got to join our brothers and sisters who fight for us in love. That is truth. Real love, you will know what it is. You will feel it. Real love, it makes you understand the hate that is being taught to us.

This is why I am pissed. I am pissed because the media won. They got to those who were willing to listen. The trapped the souls of the innocent. We need to help them understand that this is more than politics, this is about truth and love. This is a out how we can change the future. You might think this is about taxes, and immigration, but this is more than you will ever know. This is about love, and hate. Let love shine through, and let hate evaporate.

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."
