READ THIS Before You Vote!

Are you voting for the right person?

READ THIS Before You Vote!
Chris Martin

Before you go out and cast your vote in this election I urge you to do one thing…really think about who you are voting for and why. A lot of people are about to decide who is going to be the most powerful person on the planet and it should not be based off of what party they identify with. You as a voter should be looking at the policies that they are going to implement and what that will mean for you and for the economy. You should not be voting for Trump just because he is a republican. You should be voting for Trump if you agree with him. The same applies to Hillary. You should be voting for her based on her agenda for the country, not because she isn’t Trump. Throw out what your parents have told you, throw out what you hear from your friends, and throw out what you hear from everyone around you. Really sit down and do your research on the controversial issues facing the candidates, such as, Benghazi, the sex charges facing trump, the email scandals, the trump university scandal, etc. Do not go blindly in to this election and vote based on peer pressure from your friends and family. Do not pour into the bias things you have heard on from FOX or CNBC. Get the facts about the issues without the bias strings attached. Just because Trump or Hillary says something confidently does not make it true.

The future of our country lays in YOUR hands. Are you going to make an irrational choice that you will have to live with or are you going to make a logical one that is not driven by propaganda? This decision is yours and yours alone.

It is that time of year again. Christmastime. It is one of my favorite seasons for a myriad of reasons. Here are just a few reasons why I love Christmas. This list is in no order of importance.

1. The Christmas decorations

I am that person who will decorate directly after Thanksgiving is over. This year, my roommates and I put the tree up in our apartment before we even left for Thanksgiving break. It is a great stress reliever for me to just sit in my living room and work on the huge amount of work I have before the semester is over.

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?
