Why I'm Tired Of Hearing About The Election

I'm annoyed. You're annoyed. It's a lose-lose.

There is nothing more exhausting than listening to every single Joe Schmoe talk about the election as if they're a seasoned political expert. This election is bullshit, and here's why:

1. Neither of these people are role models for our country.

Both are absolute morons, clawing at each other in the public eye. These two candidates are an insult to our country.

2. Between a woman who has lied and killed, and a man who degrades women and has zero political experience; our choices are limited and our hopes are low.

Hillary stands for female empowerment but stays with a man who cheated on her. Is that what we are teaching our young women? And there's Trump, who degrades women and has been doing so for years. What a fantastic variety!

3. Everyone on Facebook and Twitter becomes a political expert after a debate.

However, as it turns out, none of these people actually watched the debate and their views are gathered solely by what is posted on the Internet.

4. America somehow thinks if one person wins, the country is saved and we are freed from our debt and problems.

Don't be ridiculous. We have dug ourselves 6 feet under and no president will ever fix the crisis we have found ourselves in.

Everyone is quick to complain but half of those who are complaining won't take the time to vote. Be smart, educate yourselves, and don't base your opinion off of internet memes.

Either way, we're screwed. Sorry.

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.
