Dear Donald Trump,

Coming from a very liberal democrat, I hope that you do succeed as president.

Dear Donald Trump,

There has been a lot on my mind since the election, and I felt as if I wanted to address my political opinions publically. His inauguration is so soon, and this liberal democrat has a lot to say.

Dear Donald Trump,

I may not be a republican, or agree with the decisions you make as president, but I will trust your judgement. You will be president, and be trained on matters I will never comprehend. You are in charge of my country, and I hope that you take good care of it. I love this country, which is why I am hoping you succeed. I do not hope for your failure, or anything bad happen to you, because I know that if you were to fail, it would be terrible for everyone.

I do hope that when you become president that you keep us millennials in mind. I don’t expect you to make democratic decisions, because that is just unrealistic. However, if you do hope to get reelected, it is the younger generation that matters. Please listen to our wants and our issues, because we need someone to help put our plans into actions. The younger people are this country’s future, and I hope that you don’t forget about that.

Despite me not voting for you, or agreeing with the things you say, I do hope you prove me, and a lot of other people wrong. I hope that you can create more jobs, and help our country the way you plan on it. Because a majority of this country elected you as our leader, I will try and stand behind and understand why they did. I will try to see you the way that they do.

Please don’t get rid of some of our helpful programs, because they have really done us a lot of good. Planned Parenthood should stay funded, because they help many people all over. Please don’t get rid of the Affordable Care Act completely, instead try revising it. It was a great idea, it just wasn’t so well planned out. It did have some amazing qualities about it, like no one was able to get denied due to previous health problems.

There are a lot of things that I have been thinking about since you became president elect, mostly just things that I worry about. I do understand that we have very different political opinions, and that is okay. Republicans put up with eight years of a great president, a president they didn’t respect or trust. I will do my very best to try and trust you, to respect you, and to see your success. Good luck out there, and please take good care of this beautiful country.

Sincerely,

A Concerned Citizen

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
Taylor Hooper

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.

If you’re anything like me, you love a good cup of coffee. My coffee always comes from Starbucks; I refuse to drink it from anywhere else. Over the years, it’s become one of my biggest addictions.

It can be overwhelming at times and it’s important to take a step a back and calmly think things over. Maybe gain some perspective.
