14 Other Things We Should Be Worrying About
Wonkette

The election has taken a toll on a lot of people, but it's not something we should be focusing all of our time on. I mean, have you seen some of the other tragic things happening in the world?

1.The Beauty and the Beast trailer

Talk about a problem! The beast isn't even that good looking! How dare they give us a disgusting creature to portray one of the most well-known monsters of our generation. And Chip's bass voice? NOT OK!

2. Last week's Dancing With The Stars elimination

Don't worry, Terra. America is angry, too.

3. Another Kermit meme

Wasn't the tea drinking enough? And now we have him in a suspicious hoodie convincing us to listen to the little devil on our shoulder. Jim Henson is turning in his grave!

4. Thanksgiving isn't for another three days

Isn't the mashed potato craving hitting you so hard right now? And it sucks because you can't have any until Thursday. You don't even get to wake up to it. You have to wait the whole day before dinner.

5. Finals start soon

Pray for your local college kids.

6. I still don't have tickets to Hamilton

I've listened to the soundtrack a million times. I have the merch. Lin's tweets get sent to my phone. BUT I STILL HAVEN'T SEEN THE SHOW!

7. Fantastic Beasts

Beware the super fans.

8. Christmas is so soon

And I bet you don't even have enough money to buy a nice gift for your mom. She deserves the world. And what are you going to get her with no money? A gift card? I'd start to panic if I were you.

9. The Starbucks Cups

They just always seem to be a problem this time of year.

10. We live in a world where we are glorifying a dead gorilla after six months...

Does this one need any explaining? It's been months, and people wrote him in to be the next president. Heroes are remembered, but legends never die. Trust me, we don't need to keep him relevant. He lives in our hearts.


11. Frozen is still too popular

People are still requesting Elsa at their birthday parties. Has it not hit these kids that other princesses exist? And Moana is coming out soon? Cmon, let it go.

12. There's too many new shows to pick from on Netflix

Fuller House season 2. The new Gilmore Girls. Haters Back Off. How do you expect me to pick only one?!?


13. Yik Yak is rearing it's ugly head again

Cue the sad people trying to get lucky and the existential posts discussing if college is even worth it.


14. I'm not Beyoncé

I'm upset too...


This world has just too much to worry about!!

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.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

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.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
