Our Country Needs More Love

Less social media, more love

With this election now behind us, it is now time for our country to chill. The decision has been made and everyone of us can take a chill pill. Seriously, put down your phone, get off your Twitter and Facebook and take a breather. Take a vacation from all of it, you need it. WE ALL NEED A BREAK FROM SOCIAL MEDIA.

This election has sucked out the energy from all of us. This includes posts about the candidates on social media. Even some memes about the candidates, not gonna lie, the orange is the new black meme is my new favorite myself. However, we have spent all of our time reading and thinking about these posts and memes and not thinking about what is really important in life.

While it has been great entertainment and awesome to look at everything on social media, we need to focus on each other. Focusing on loving and supporting each other during this time is important because of the outcome. It may not have been to the best outcome to some, but we still need to respect one another's thoughts and opinions. If we do not do this, our country is going to be like a crazy amusement park on steroids.

So if we can just be nice to each other and say kind things then we will be in the right direction. Change is not going to happen over night. We are going to have to work together as a country to take the right steps to change the way we look and think about situations in a positive way. Why not start today to make these positive changes?

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.
