Why I Do Not Feel Bad For Mark Salling

I will not say "rest in peace," cause truthfully he doesn't deserve it.

January 30, 2018, Mark Wayne Salling (known for his role as Puck from 'Glee') was found dead by L.A. County Law Enforcement. Salling committed suicide after being found guilty of possession of child pornography.

He had over 50,000 images of child pornography in his possession. Salling was set to serve 4-7 years in prison as part of a plea deal starting in March.

I love Glee and how great Mark was at playing his role, however, I will never be able to watch Glee without seeing the disgusting human he is.

To his family, my heart aches for the loss of your son, brother, and friend. I apologize to anyone who looked up to him as a role model. I apologize to the families of the victims, and the victims themselves.

Despite what I feel for his family and his friends I cannot say "rest in peace" because of what I feel for his victims. The children he saw as items and not humans. To me, he does not deserve to rest in peace. He deserves to burn in hell. He is a cruel, disgusting human who deserved a lot more than just 4-7 years.

Mark Salling deserved just as much as Larry Nassar. Call me cruel, hateful, unforgiving, and everything in between if you must. I truly do not think Mark got what he deserved. He deserved to rot in prison and everyone needs to know that he was not a good man as he made himself out to be.

I do not condone suicide and think that if you are having bad thoughts, please talk to someone or call a suicide hotline (1-800-273-8255).

As for the children he defiled, I am so sorry for what he did. I know you will never fully recover from something like this and if you do it will leave behind huge scars. I am so sorry that the people taking to social media forget you are apart of this too and only care about him being a celebrity. You are in my thoughts and prayers.

Finally, to the people of social media who are sympathizing the loss of a pedophile, let me ask you this, if the children he defiled were yours, wouldn't you be disgusted and angry? I am so sick of seeing people say that he deserved better.

No, he's a pedophile, he deserved SO much worse. Please, stop feeling bad for him. End of story.

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.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into.

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

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.
