10 Reasons You Should Never Have A Dog In College

1. You will have constant companionship.

People don't want someone to love them unconditionally and stay by their sides because honestly, that's just clingy. Dogs are clingy.

2. You won't have your bed to yourself anymore.

Someone warm and fuzzy will probably take up part of your bed and make you feel safe and secure, but that's no fun.


3. You won't have free time anymore.

You'll have to do things like taking your dog to the park. Your dog will take up your whole life, and you won't have time to do the things you love, like binge-watching Netflix.

4. You'll never get to keep all of your food for yourself.

You won't get to warm up week-old leftovers anymore. That's stupid.

5. You'll laugh a lot, and no one likes laughter.

Laughing is for little kids.

6. You'll spend all of your Chick-Fil-A money on dog food and be forced to eat at home.

You might even lose weight or eat healthier because you stopped spending all of your money on fast food. That's no good.

7. Your favorite black clothing will never be black again.

Dog hair. Dog hair everywhere. Not worth it.

8. You'll probably lose a couple of shoes in the beginning.

Or maybe a stuffed panda bear, or something else you loved more than you could ever love your dog.

9. You'll be forced into adulthood.

Having a dog turns you into a parent, and you're not ready for that. As a matter of fact, this is a terrible way to prepare you for adulthood.

10. You'll have a best friend.

Having someone care about you is terrible. It's just the worst. Unconditional love? Ew.

If you're considering adopting a dog, there are many ways to do so. Check with your local Humane Society to see what loving a pet entails. Make sure to be completely ready to adopt before doing so. There are so many animals who deserve loving homes and adoring parents. Be one today.

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.
