Why I'm Going To Shave My Head

It's time, I think.

Why I'm Going To Shave My Head
Forever Celeb

I've thought about this for a long time and after careful consideration, I think it's finally time I'm going to shave my head. No, it's not a fashion statement and I'm not trying to pull a Brittany Spears. I have really good reasoning and after reading this I think you'll understand and maybe you'll want to do it too.


Okay, so I'm not really going to shave my head. But the fact that you read this far is impressive. You were just a victim of clickbait and before I apologize, hear me out. Our generation doesn't really pay all that attention to what we are reading. It seems as though we read something we think is news and form an opinion without even reading the entire thing.

A lot of people are victims of fake news sites and they share them without reading the article. If there's one thing in journalism that we learned it's to check your sources; find their credibility and see if they believable and truthful. If you're unsure, Google. God gave us Google for a reason, to ask questions.

Our generation has such a short attention span that we only read things that stand out.
AKA bold letters and pictures. And we don't like to read articles that are too long. If it looks long and boring then we're probably not going to read it. Reading articles with smaller paragraphs makes it look shorter and therefore we are more inclined to read it.

Avoid looking stupid. If you're going to share an article on Facebook, please actually read it. Check the credibility of the source. It's better you take the time to read it than avoid looking stupid by all your Facebook or Twitter friends and followers.

Oh, and for the record, I don't think I will ever shave my head. It's taken a lifetime to grow it, I don't want to take that away. And plus, my head is to much shaped like a deformed egg.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

Happy Birthday Cake

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.
