Dogs rule and boys drool, am I right ladies?

6  Reasons Why Dogs Are Better Than Boys
Emily Faddis

If there's one thing girls love more than boys, it's cute dogs. Something about their adorableness just makes us all go wild and want to take in every dog we see. When boys are usually out breaking hearts and playing games, dogs are at home, waiting to give you love and waiting for you to give them belly rubs. It has been scientifically proven (by me and my dog Riley), that dogs are better than boys in many ways.

1. They listen to us (mostly).

Let's face it, girls. We know that 90% of the time, our guys aren't listening to us, and if they are, they give us answers we don't want to hear. Dogs are always interested in what we have to say. I can sit with my dog and talk to him about anything, and he will sit there and listen to me, even though he probably doesn't understand a word. And he understands the word "no" than most boys.

2. Their extreme happiness when we come home.

There's nothing better than coming home to a pup who's so excited you're home that they just jump all over you and get slobber everywhere. We never get tired of seeing our dogs. We wish guys were that excited to see us.

3. Their soft, fluffy cuddling.

Let's face it, cuddling with a soft, warm puppy is way better than cuddling with a guy who's muscles make it feel like you're cuddling with a rock. (Both are nice, though.)

4. Puppy kisses.


There's just nothing better than puppy kisses, period. Not even boyfriend kisses.

5. They will follow us anywhere and do whatever with us.

Most times, if you have a guy, you have to beg him to come somewhere with you. With dogs, they are always willing to go anywhere with you, as long as they are with you. My pup has made many car rides very entertaining. Plus, you get to play whatever music you want, and they won't complain like a guy would.

6. Their unconditional love and devotion to us.

A guy can say he will love you forever, but that doesn't mean he means it. They don't have to be there your whole life. Dogs are always there. From day one, until the end, your dog will love you every day. There is no better feeling than knowing that you are there for your dog throughout their whole life. They will love you forever, and be there with you through everything.

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

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?

sisters

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.

If you’re anything like me, you love a good cup of coffee. My coffee always comes from Starbucks; I refuse to drink it from anywhere else. Over the years, it’s become one of my biggest addictions.

It can be overwhelming at times and it’s important to take a step a back and calmly think things over. Maybe gain some perspective. The following aren’t foolproof tips and may not apply to you, but I was able to find success with them (hope you do too!)
