We can never get that wasted 90 minutes of our lives back.

10 Things More Entertaining Than Watching The Presidential Debate

Being educated about the election is important, and I'm pretty sure most people were actually excited to watch the debate last Monday night. The media made the debate out to be as big as the Superbowl. However, it was an extreme disappointed basically reminding everyone that we probably shouldn't vote for either of these candidates. At least that was the argument they were making on stage for 90 minutes. Since we will never get that 90 minutes of depressing time back I figured we could at least imagine the more entertaining things we could have been doing.


1. Binge watching "Law and Order"

This country does need to restore Law and Order, thankfully it's all on Netflix and can be binge-watched at any time.

2. Doing Homework

Doing homework is actually slightly less depressing than this election.

3. Reading a good book

Who knows where the country will be in a couple years, we better start studying up on the hunger games now.

4. Memorizing your contacts

It would definitely be a better use of 90 minutes, you never know what will happen.

5. Watching Kanye West doing literally anything.

Side note if you need a good laugh google Kanye West funny moments. #Kanyeforpresident2020??

6. Praying for our poor country

I'm 100% serious about this one. Say your prayers people.

7. Reading live tweets about the debate

"CNN on how to watch the debate. I'll be watching it while drinking whiskey, my arms wrapped me, rocking back n forth in the corner, scared." -@ErinFoley

"All things aside, congrats to these two olds for not peeing for 90 minutes" -@RyanStegman

"this is the longest SNL cold open I've ever seen" -@SarahHalusha

8. Watching "Dancing With The Stars", "The Voice", or any other show that got cut off early because of debate night.

The 90-second debate dance on "Dancing With the Stars" accomplished more than the actual debate.

9. Babysitting two children, kinda like Lester Holt was doing.

Not only poor man was stuck babysitting two adults, but his parents gave him the name Lester.

10. Fact checking.

No comment needed.


I'm sure I speak for everyone when I say I can't wait for Tuesday to watch the two most boring vice presidential candidates battle it out in a way that would make the "Batman v Superman" fight scene look like award winning cinema.

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.
