Jojo and JorJor: My Thoughts On The Bachelorette Finale

The Bachelor and Bachelorette are two of the most watched, talked about, and criticized shows in all of television.

Whether you love it or hate to love it, it is hard to escape this conversation when one of the seasons airs.

Personally, I used to hate it. I refused to take part in watching because I thought it was fake and annoying.

Despite my opinion, literally every one of my friends was completely obsessed. I was always the one who had no idea what they were talking about and I really didn't care, that is until they forced me to sit through an episode of Kaitlyn Bristowe's season.

I tried to be uninterested, but after that, I was hooked. I am now an avid Bachelor watcher.

At the end of Ben Higgin's season, I was shocked he didn't choose Jojo Fletcher. You can imagine my happiness when it was revealed that she would be the next Bachelorette.

I really enjoyed this season, and not to toot my own horn or anything, but I called Jordan Rodgers from night one after he got the first impression rose.

When the finale aired, it was revealed that Jojo picked Jordan, and sent Robby Hayes home.

Although I found this season to be one of my favorites I have watched so far, there were some things that really bugged me during the finale:

First off, when Jojo rejected Robby, she said she wanted it to be him. Why would you ever break up with someone and then tell them you wanted it to be them? That is literally the last thing I think anyone would want to hear during a proposal rejection.

Like, "I really wish it was you, but like it's not, so bye!"

Obviously, you don't wish it was them, or you would have chosen them, so don't say that.

Also, Jojo's dad should never have told Robby he couldn't wait for him to be in their family when he met them. You are basically "son-in-law promising" him, which was rude when he knew there was a second contender.

Second, am I the only one that thought Jojo was a tad dramatic about Jordan not asking for her dad's permission to ask her to marry him?

I mean, I totally understood where Jordan was coming from because it would be hard to ask that when you don't know where she stood.

I don't know, maybe it's the feminist in me, but I just don't think it is that big of a deal.

Third, every time I looked at Twitter after Jojo picked Jordan, all I saw was tweets about how she chose the f*ckboy over the good guy.

I'm like, hello, have you not heard the rumors that Robbie dumped his ex right before the show? He isn't a saint, don't be annoying.

If Jojo didn't trust Jordan, she wouldn't have picked him.

And lastly, why (emphasis on the why) did Chris Harrison bring up not once, not twice, but like five times, Aaron Rodgers?

What does Aaron Rodgers have to do with anything, at all, regarding the Bachelorette? You are tainting this joyous time for Jojo and Jordan by bringing up his brother he doesn't really like at the moment.

I wish I could have stuck my hand in the television and slapped Chris myself.

However many things annoyed me during the finale, you know that I was in absolute hysterics when Jojo told Jordan she loved him, and when she said yes.

I hope that everyone who does not support these lovebirds will leave them alone and let them be annoyingly adorable and in love like they are.

I know I will, while I sit here painfully single, living vicariously through them on Snapchat.

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.
