11 Reasons To Love Joe Biden

The last eight(ish) years have been filled with firsts for the United States- first African American president, first women running for president in the two major parties, and we have had the first super cool vice president. Like y'all, he's literally the best Vice President ever. Why you ask?


1. He loves ice cream just as much as the rest of us

example a:

He's just really down to earth and a supporter of the dairy business okay?


2. He's an advocate for cancer research and funding

This year the White House has pledged over 1 billion in cancer research. But in June VP Biden gave a speech at the ASCO Annual Meeting (link provided in case you want to read it) But, his moon shot initiative is in hope to make research and care more accessible. In 2015 his son, Beau, passed away from a brain tumor, so the issue with cancer and other diseases has hit sweet Joe close to home.


3. He swears "on accident" like the rest of us

The video speaks for itself. He's only human, but the best human ever.


4. He's a feminist

When rapist Brock Johnson was only gave six months as punishment, Joe Biden wrote an open letter to the victim. He acknowledges that rape culture is prevalent in our society, and realizes that as the VP he can make a difference in our society. Cool beans right?


5. These pictures


6. That he loves pizza even as much as we do



7. Joe is just a great name


8. That one time he fell asleep during President's Obama's speech, like we all have done at something important before


10. He makes mistakes just like us, too. We feel your struggle Joe.



11. He is humble

Like, y'all- this man is Vice President of the United States of America..

and he is humble. Can we give Joe the "Best VP/Americas Grandpa Award?" I vote yes.

... is it too late for him to run 2016???!!!!

It is that time of year again. Christmastime. It is one of my favorite seasons for a myriad of reasons. Here are just a few reasons why I love Christmas. This list is in no order of importance.

1. The Christmas decorations

I am that person who will decorate directly after Thanksgiving is over. This year, my roommates and I put the tree up in our apartment before we even left for Thanksgiving break. It is a great stress reliever for me to just sit in my living room and work on the huge amount of work I have before the semester is over.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?
