President Trump, Do you Really Have 'Friends'?

Dear President Trump,

As I scrolled through the top stories of today's news I see that two Russian bomber planes were intercepted by two of our F-22 Raptor fighter aircraft on Monday. Mr. President, when you were battling for this high ranking position, you made it clear that you had become friends with Putin. Why would Putin release his bomber planes to the coast of Alaska?

If you are such good friends with Putin then why is he "showing his teeth?" Putin is supposed to support what you so call, "Making America Great Again," but I haven't seen that at all. He didn't even support you when you bombed Syria. These messages don't tell me I have a strong leader behind my back. We have a force of nature that is going to get us all killed.

On top of that, you've even made enemies with North Korea, more than we were before. Why do you keep putting our country in danger? Do you want nuclear war? If you continue with these rude, yet powerful actions, we will all end up dead. We don't trust you, Trump.

In my eyes, along with many other U.S. citizens, you didn't deserve this position and we all knew you'd destroy what President Obama made for us. Yes, President Obama struggled but at least he kept our country safe, friendly and worked to make it better. You've done nothing but make a mess of us all. Your mouth, attitude, and plans scare us all.

President Trump, please be careful. Please think before you speak and most of all, please keep our country's best interest in your heart. We're stuck with you for a few years but there needs to be a compromise in this.

Sincerely,

A scared citizen

5 Ways To Bring Positivity Into Your Life When All You Want To Do Is Drown In Self-Pity

The first two weeks of classes have come to an end and they have been anything BUT easy. It seems like life has been serving up more bad than good and in all honesty, the only thing you want to do is crawl under your covers and hide from the rest of the world.

Although this seems like the best solution, it is also the easy way out. Take it from the girl who took basically a whole week off from her life because she just could not handle everything that was being thrown at her. This caused her to feel extremely lonely and even more stressed out for being behind in classes that JUST began.

11 Things We Learned From Brooke Davis

"What's more important? What we become or how we become it?"

St. Thomas Aquinas College

"She was fiercely independent, Brooke Davis. Brilliant, and beautiful, and brave. In two years she had grown more than anyone I had ever known. Brooke Davis is going to change the world someday, and I'm not sure she even knows it." - Lucas Scott, An Unkindness of Ravens

Brooke Davis of the hit show One Tree Hill was the it girl - she had it all, or so we thought. She started out as a stuck-up, shallow, spoiled, head cheerleader who didn't have her life together. She slept around a lot and loved to party - sounds like your typical high school teenager right? Wrong. B. Davis had so much more to offer. Caring, loyal, and outspoken, she has taught us some valuable lessons throughout the 9 seasons that OTH was on the air:

For some of us, coming to college was the first time we ever had to share a room. It was a big change, but a fun one.

We call those people, "Honorary Roommates" and here are 11 signs you have one in your life.
