Dear Chelsea Handler

You are not a hero to women.

I have literally just peeled my eyes away from reading the atrocity that is Chelsea Handler's abortion confession. I am in complete and total awe of the stupidity and inconsiderate nature of this woman (though she claims to have made the “thoughtful” decision). I am disgusted, to be perfectly honest. Here’s why:

Yeah, she “happened to f*** up twice,” when she was a teenager. We all screw-up, I will not deny that. I will also not deny that humans are sexual beings. Especially teenagers. That’s just scientific fact. You know what else is scientific fact?

IF YOU HAVE UNPROTECTED, IRRESPONSIBLE SEX, YOU WILL GET PREGNANT.

YOU make that decision and you have the audacity to just up and decide “oops, I shouldn’t have done that, let’s just take away this life I created irresponsibly.” TWICE. TWICE you took away someone else's opportunity to be a mother. TWICE you crushed someone else's dreams of holding that little life in their arms, a life that some people cannot have the PRIVILEGE of creating because science and God said no to them, but yes to an ungrateful and irresponsible human being (which I do not totally understand, but I am not God).

Let’s just break down this whole abortion issue really quick - a fetus has a heartbeat as early as six weeks gestation.

Six weeks. Six. Unfortunately, most women don’t even know they’re pregnant until after that. I get that every woman does not dream of being a mother, and nobody said you have to be a mother to this thing you’re growing inside you. But for someone to say it’s not a life, a human life, is untrue. He or she has a heart, and it’s beating. If I reached inside your chest and ripped out your heart, you’d be dead because you no longer have a beating heart inside your body. Same concept here. The fetus has one, therefore it’s living. End of story, in my opinion. So, you don’t want to be a mother. Your empty womb doesn’t bother you. Well, guess what? IT BOTHERS SOME PEOPLE. Some women dream their whole lives about being a mother, but they can’t. These women normally choose to adopt, but oh, oh no, the perfect baby they always dreamt of, never got the chance to be loved because you made a SELFISH decision. SELFISH. You couldn’t spare your body and live with the consequences for nine months out of your life.

I will also take this time to say that we need more sex education in the United States to keep things like this from happening.

But much like the way divorce has become so easy these days, abortion is the easy and selfish way out of something you chose to do.

Learn to live with the decisions you make, people. Please. Just learn.

This is a messy article. It’s the messiest one I have ever written. Because I am so angered by this woman I cannot even think straight anymore.

Chelsea Handler, you’re utterly unfunny (even before I knew all this) and now you’re just an awful human.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

19 Lessons I'll Never Forget from Growing Up In a Small Town

There have been many lessons learned.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

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.
