7 Places Not To Move To If Trump Becomes President

I guess this Trump thing is getting pretty serious. Many people are talking about leaving America if he does become president. Whether they're serious or not, there are definitely some places you might want to consider steering clear from if you decide to get on that one way flight.

1. North Korea

Aside from the obvious reasons, if you were trying to escape Trump's reign, North Korea would most likely be the last place you'd want to go. Not only is the country completely bonkers, but North Korea just prompted Trump for president. Fast forward two years with Trump stopping by North Korea to play basketball with Kim Jun Un while North Korea has nuclear missiles pointed at Seoul and Los Angeles.

2. Russia

Since Putin and Trump are basically the same person and going to have the biggest historical bromance, I think it's safe to say that Russia would not be a great place to go if you were trying to escape egocentrism.

3. China

Unless you like communism, China is not the place for you. Trump's constant berating of the Chinese and their government will definitely end in some kind of armed conflict between the two and I'm assuming you wouldn't want to get caught in the crossfire.

4. Syria

So we have people leaving, ISIS killing everyone and destroying everything, Assad making a complete and utter mess out of everything and Russia not doing anything to help, Syria is definitely one you will want to avoid going to.

5. Venezuela

Listed as the most corrupt and least free nation, I don't think any American would be able to call Venezuela a home. Caracas, the capital, has experienced widespread famine over the past few years, and the Venezuelan government is doing nothing to alleviate it. So, if you like you posh, first world lifestyle, Venezuela is not the place for you.

6. Brazil

Brazil just ousted their president after the Petrobras scandal which created a political vacuum and instability in the nation. Let's also not forget that Zika is still at pandemic levels with no cure. I would say that at least you could at least go to the Olympics, but many organizations are calling for the Olympics to be canceled or moved somewhere else.

7. Turkey

Turkey is just fighting with everyone. The Kurds, ISIS, the US sometimes. Known to be a hotbed for terrorism, Turkey is probably one of the least safe places to be right now.

It's clear a lot of other countries do not sound appealing to move to if Trump becomes president. Therefore, this satirical piece was written to make the point that rather than saying you're going to move to another country if Trump becomes president, vote in the election so he never does.

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.
