9 Things To Do on November 9th

For when the results of the election are just too much to handle.

1. Cry

Either way this election goes it calls for some tears, and maybe some Ben & Jerry’s if it goes that badly (it most likely will go that badly, prepare your ice cream).

2. Move to Canada

All jokes on this one aside, Justin Trudeau is looking better and better every day! I think I’ll pack my bags and parka and just move to Canada before it’s too late.

3. Spend a year (or 4) abroad

No better time to explore what else the world has to over than right now!!! As we enter the most likely worst four years in America’s recent history, why not spend it in France or Australia? A little culture never hurt nobody.

4. Drop off the grid

Never a bad time to become more like Ron Swanson and drop off the grid entirely. Following the outcomes of this election, this may be one of the best ideas on the list. Sure, an isolated forest may be filled with serial killers but hey, it’d probably be better than this right?

5. Buy a house boat

Who doesn’t want to live on a houseboat and sail the world? I’m sure a lot of people but even they would have to admit that in light of the situation, this is a pretty good looking option.

6. Start your campaign for president

Let’s face it: if these two are eligible to run for president, that means any of us could do it! Why delay? Start your campaign today to give America a better future. No background in politics or human decency required!

7. Watch The Purge

And take notes, because this is most likely what our country is going to come to. We should all be prepared for it at least.

8. Contemplate how it got this bad

Sit down with a warm cup of tea and just wonder, “HOW did this happen?” All memes aside, this election should have been an outrage! Yet, we let both these candidates get this close to the presidency. Snuggle up with the thought of America being ripped to shreds by either of these candidates. Heartwarming.

9. Gather your friends and plan a storming of the White House, French Revolution style!

Nothing says “welcome to power” quite like an angry mob storming your home demanding change. Marie Antoinette knew this one all too well. Also, I’ve heard Washington D.C. is just lovely in January.

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.
