Best Ways To Get Over The Election
LA Times

The election is over. You have to accept it, right? If you're having a hard time, here are some ways for you to move on and learn to accept that Donald Trump is not everyone's president.

1. Be white

This is a sure-fire way to move on. The election isn't going to affect you. Everything is find. Plus, no one will threaten to hang and/or deport you.

2. Be straight and cis-gendered.

This is great because you can express love for your partner freely and go into a bathroom without fear!

3. Be a male.

If you don't like being sexually assaulted, be a male! It's the best.

4. Be a Christian.

Don't like having the fear of being choked by your hijab? Convert to Christianity!

5. Have a full-time job that pays a living wage (which is easier if you are one or all the above).

If you don't have a full-time job, that's okay. All you need is parents that can pay for everything!

6.Tell people they are being over dramatic.

Honestly though, get over it already.

7. Re-tweet all of Donald Trump’s tweets about how unfair the protests are.

RT: @realDonaldTrump Just had a very open and successful presidential election. Now professional protesters, incited by the media, are protesting. Very unfair!

8. Pretend you weren’t pissed that Obama was elected in 2008.

This didn't even happen.

9. Tell people that he is everyone’s president.

This is extra effective if you tell them to "get the hell out" if they disagree with you.

10. Go write “Make America White Again” on anything and everything you can.

Vandalism is key. Swastikas also help.

11. Yell slurs at any person that does not look like you.

So, if there is someone that is black, female, Muslim, Latinx, or any other minority, feel free to unleash all of your hatred on them.

12. Have a token minority friend.

Look at my black friend over there.

13. Be okay when a cop stops you.

Guns are the best. Good guys with guns, stop bad guys with guns.

14. Make people respect your opinion because it’s just politics.

All politicians threaten to deport or assault people, obviously.

So remember, there is nothing you can do to change the outcome of the election so GET OVER IT!

Or don't, because it's terrifying.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
