JoJo Siwa Is NOT a Role Model, She's Just Annoying

Every time a video of her pops up on my social media feed, it feels like the remains of my soul are being sucked from my body as if my spirit is descending into Hell.

It's come to this. I am a 20-year-old girl writing an article insulting a 15-year-old girl. But hey, JoJo is in the public, so it's fine.

First of all, I'd like to lay out my extreme bias against this girl. Her wild screaming and obnoxiously tight ponytail boils my blood to 100 degrees Fahrenheit, which is approximately 1.4 degrees higher than normal.

JoJo's bright and energetic personality differs so much from my calm and incredibly jaded persona. So every time a video of her pops up on my social media feed, it feels like the remains of my soul are being sucked from my body as if my spirit is descending into Hell.

But enough about my slightly unreasonable distaste for this bow-bearing blondie. I want to address some videos that compare JoJo to other girls who are younger than her.

Videos like this one pit JoJo against other 15-year-old girls, and in this case, a girl named Malu Trevejo. The behavior of both of these girls is unlike what I'd expect most teenagers to be like because when I was 15, all I did was try to reach the bottom of my Tumblr feed. But the real issue here lies in the comment section.

Many people believe that JoJo is a role model for young people. Even the top comment with over 2,000 likes says "JoJo is a better influence, especially to young girls." But I really don't understand why JoJo is a role model. She's just a girl... a very strange, overenthusiastic girl.

And why is it okay to put down another girl to raise JoJo up? Even I'm weirded out seeing a teenage girl dance and dress provocatively, but hey, she's just a girl who is comfortable with her body and sexuality.

Viewers also comment on Malu's crop tops and other revealing clothing. Many people also make fun of JoJo for dressing too young for her age. It's almost as if people will never be satisfied!

Although I started this out by ripping apart JoJo's overdone personality, that's just my opinion. It doesn't mean I have the right to police her or tell her that she should stop making videos that hurt my brain. Just treat these ladies with respect. And here is where I conclude my somewhat hypocritical argument.

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.
