I Can't Wait Until My Generation Runs The Country

I am not at all afraid for my generation to take over political roles to represent us as a country, as states, and as people. I have an unmatched trust in my peers who will become educators because I believe they will teach not only out of the book but also lessons like inclusivity, kindness, and generosity. I believe in the nurses and doctors who will treat each patient not only with their knowledge but with fairness and a kind and understanding heart.

We are the generation that is going to turn everything around.

We are the ones who will make the changes. We've seen and experienced too much brutality and unfairness to still have cold hearts. We are now warm toward the people and ideas we were lead to hate and disapprove of. My generation took the opportunity to finally see people as people and allowed them to be who they wanted to be.

We are the ones who have best friends who are immigrants.

We are the ones whose significant others are a different race or ethnicity.

We are the ones whose siblings are apart of the LGBTQ community.

We are the ones who are traveling the world and want to learn more about other cultures and countries.

We are the ones who created bonds instead of burning bridges.

We are the ones who support, uplift, and empower one another.

We are the ones with open minds and understanding hearts.

The world is about to be brighter, and my generation will lead us there.

Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

College is a great place to meet people, especially through Greek life. If you look closely at sororities, you'll quickly see there are many different types of girls you will meet.

1. The Legacy.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September. It becomes harder and harder to focus in classes and while doing assignments as the days get closer. The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.
