10 Times It Is OK To Get An Abortion

Every female and now male have an opinion about abortions. Some people believe it is not ethical while others believe it is their own choice to make. I believe that it is my body and I deserve the right to chose to have an abortion if I want to. It is my body, so please do not make the decision for me.

Always

When you believe it is the best choice for you.

Always

When you don't want to put ANOTHER child in foster care. As there is already 438,000 children currently in the foster care system just in the US.

Always

When you do not feel like you can't mentally handle having a child.

Always

Because your life matters.

Always

When you want to finish school, focus on work, or achieve other goals before having a baby.

Always

When you are not in a relationship with someone you want to have a baby with.

Always

When you don't want to be a parent.

Always

When you are not financially able to support yourself and a child.

Always

Shockingly, it is ALWAYS okay to have an abortion.

Always

Because this is my voice for standing up for what matters, it is my body and if I decide to have an abortion I will.

I fully support all women should be able to have a choice to have an abortion or not. I also personally believe it is not right to have an abortion ar 8 or 9 months, but that hardly happens. Even if I dont believe it is right, I still think people should have the option.

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.

The Great Christmas Movie Debate

"A Christmas Story" is the star on top of the tree.

One staple of the Christmas season is sitting around the television watching a Christmas movie with family and friends. But of the seemingly hundreds of movies, which one is the star on the tree? Some share stories of Santa to children ("Santa Claus Is Coming to Town"), others want to spread the Christmas joy to adults ("It's a Wonderful Life"), and a select few are made to get laughs ("Elf"). All good movies, but merely ornaments on the Christmas tree of the best movies. What tops the tree is a movie that bridges the gap between these three movies, and makes it a great watch for anyone who chooses to watch it. Enter the timeless Christmas classic, "A Christmas Story." Created in 1983, this movie holds the tradition of capturing both young and old eyes for 24 straight hours on its Christmas Day marathon. It gets the most coverage out of all holiday movies, but the sheer amount of times it's on television does not make it the greatest. Why is it,
then? A Christmas Story does not try to tell the tale of a Christmas miracle or use Christmas magic to move the story. What it does do though is tell the real story of Christmas. It is relatable and brings out the unmatched excitement of children on Christmas in everyone who watches. Every one becomes a child again when they watch "A Christmas Story."

It's the most wonderful time of the year! Christmas is one of my personal favorite holidays because of the Christmas traditions my family upholds generation after generation. After talking to a few of my friends at college, I realized that a lot of them don't really have "Christmas traditions" in their family, and I want to help change that. Here's a list of Christmas traditions that my family does, and anyone can incorporate into their family as well!

It’s here; that time of year when college students turn into preschoolers again. We cry for our mothers, eat everything in sight, and whine when we don’t get our way. It’s finals, the dreaded time of the semester when we all realize we should have been paying attention in class instead of literally doing anything else but that. Everyone has to take them, and yes, unfortunately, they are inevitable. But just because they are here and inevitable does not mean they’re peaches and cream and full of rainbows. Surviving them is a must, and the following five phases are a reality for all majors from business to art, nursing to history.
