Unfiltered Thoughts I Had During The First Presidential Debate

A play-by-play of the first hour of watching our two (least) favorite politicians butt heads.

Unfiltered Thoughts I Had During The First Presidential Debate

WOOO, HERE WE GO! Trump with the wild card blue tie. Bold choice. I'd comment on Hillary's outfit, but feminist Twitter would be at my door with pitchforks. ANYWAY

Trump sounds like he has a cold, and I'm not sure how long I can deal with the sniffling for. Wondering how that impacts viewer perception of him. Should be interesting.

Hillary, you hate wealthy people and Trump hates poor people, we get it.

Trump takes a long chug of water looking like a frat boy at a Kentucky Derby party.

"Trump thinks climate change is Chinese hoax." I don't have time to fact check this, but I'm laughing.

Hillary, the only thing your husband was doing in the 1990's was Lewinksy; take it down a notch.

Honestly, as much as I dislike Clinton, she's so driven that I can't help but be inspired even slightly

Things are getting heated. Trump needs to stop interrupting Clinton. The media's gonna rip him apart.

Hillary Clinton just plugged her book, and I'm honestly impressed at how shameless it was.

You can tell that Trump wants to flip out. His campaign manager slipped a Xanax into that glass of water; no doubt in my mind.

The smug looks on both parties makes me genuinely uncomfortable. Why is Rudy Giuliani not running again?

"This is Secretary Clinton's two minutes, Mr. Trump." They should honestly just let them go back and forth all night. It would be entertaining and much less rehearsed.

Trump makes an Obama golf reference. I'm dying.

Why are Trump's financial records so sought after? He's wealthy. I know Americans love to hate successful people, but just let it go.

The moderator is #TeamHillary all the way, but he can at least pretend to hide it.

Hillary RATTLED about the email comment, but the audience is loving it.

CLINTON, WHY ARE YOU LAUGHING? YOU THREATENED NATIONAL SECURITY?!! Okay, I need to turn the bias down. Apologies.

Hillary trying to act like she's not stressed out about the topic of emails being raised is the face you make at a party when you see your ex talking to other girls.

Can we all just reflect on the fact that Donald Trump is legitimately the Republican nominee? Like this is real life.

"My father provided a good, middle-class life for us." A Yale-educated politician with a net worth of $31.3 million trying SO hard to be relatable.


They're talking about race, now, so this is where I sign off. I look forward to seeing the magical moments that happen during the remaining half hour. Enjoy, everyone!

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
