You Are Not the President of the UNITED States

Dear Donald Trump,

Following the Inaugural Address on Friday January 20th, you were sworn into office as President. You may be the President, but you are not the President of the United States. For decades, America has regarded itself as a United Nation. There is a diversity of Blacks, Whites, Native Americans, Latinos, Asian Americans, males, females and people of the LGBTQ community. Even with all our differences, we coexist peacefully in the same communities. During the course of the election, countless offensive actions of yours created a divide in the Nation. Throughout your campaign you relentlessly ostracized women, gays, blacks, Latinos, Muslims, transgenders, lesbians, and Asians. A President is 'the leader of a country', disturbingly enough, you are considered the role model of America. As President I would hope you're aware of the document the Founding Fathers based this nation on; the Declaration of Independence. The Declaration of Independence states: "all men are created equal." Equality is the reason horrific wars throughout the World have been fought. The blood shed during the Civil War to make blacks and whites equal; The amount of deaths it took to make blond hair and blue eyes just an appearance rather than a superior race; your hateful discriminations have taken us back in time a hundred years. When the Founding Fathers birthed this great nation, freedom was and has been a top priority for America. Freedom of religion, sexuality, and (since the establishment of slavery in 1865,) freedom of race and nationality are a few of the the extremely important freedoms you as an American citizen are granted automatically. You Trump, have threatened the freedom of a large percentage of America. You bullied different races, nationalities, genders and sexualities. You treated these people different from you as scum. You want to build a wall so we can be "protected". Protected from what? Diversity? People relocate here so they can feel safe. You've ripped that safe feeling away from everyone and anyone who isn't a straight white male.

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.

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.
