Maybe Donald Trump IS The Best Option

The 2016 election season has been nothing short of entertaining; but I do occasionally feel a tad embarrassed to be an American. If you've actually watched the debates or followed politics this year, you probably feel the same.

Our college town is littered with Donald Trump signs, bumper stickers and flags... yet I've only seen one Hillary Clinton sign, like in my entire life. Which makes me wonder... what's so great about Trump? Why are his supporters so passionate about him? Why does it seem that he has a million more supporters than Clinton does?

Is he a genius; the best leader the USA could ever possibly have?

Here are some pretty important, pure genius things that Donald has said or believes that may cause you to support him if you already don't. LET'S MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!

1. Desires to reduce teen pregnancy by using education & contraceptives.

Sex ed in the US needs some serious reform...

2. Believes that arts education is needed in schools.

So important!

3. Says that potential for life begins at conception.

I would say most agree, right?

4. Wants to protect the next generation by paying off national debt.

PLEASE.

5. Says flag-burning should be criminalized.

Do you agree?

6. Family-friendly work policies will benefit businesses.

Pure genius.

7. There should be more funding and harsher punishments for hate crimes.

Maybe this would help?

8. Marijuana users should not go to prison.

Seriously, people spend less time in jail for way worse things.

9. Funding should be available to help America's opiate problem.

Yep.

10. Teachers should have higher salaries.

Duh. Why don't they? It's a pretty important job...

11. Wants green energy to be invested in.

12. Thinks services for people with autism and their families needs improvement.

Definitely.

13. Thinks that giving kids after-school activities can help prevent gangs.

Possible, right?

14. Says that America's best days are still ahead.

SURPRISE: These are all things that Hillary Clinton has said or believes... and you probably thought they were all pure genius simply because someone said they were from Donald Trump.

Please do your research before the election. Vote Trump, vote Clinton, vote third party, or don't vote at all - but PLEASE be educated before you do so. Don't believe everything you read.

PS: there are other options besides Trump and Hillary *gasp* like Jill Stein or Gary Johnson.

Things I Am Actually Going To Do This Semester

Or at least try to do.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
