Nick Is The New Bachelor

And I am not happy about it.

Nick Is The New Bachelor
In Touch Weekly

Any devoted "Bachelorette" fans know who Nick Viall is; he's the guy who somehow always seems to come in second and is known for his passionate make out sessions. After being rejected by Andi Dorfman in favor of Josh Murray (obvious choice) Nick went on "After the Final Rose" and proceeded to ask Andi why she would "make love to him" and "do finance stuff" with him if she wasn't going to choose him. Did you just gag? Because I certainly did. Dude, no one wants to hear about the Fantasy Suite, that's why there aren't any cameras in there! (But seriously, if you want to read more about their Fantasy Suite experience, Andi wrote about it in her tell all book It's Not Okay, I highly recommend it).

That public humiliation wasn't enough for our good friend Nick. He of course returned as a suitor on Kaitlyn Bristowe's season and his claim to fame there was having sex with her extremely early on in the season. My only problem with this incident is that she was slut-shamed while he received nowhere near the same amount of scrutiny. But again, he caused problems in the house with the other men and did some weird things with his tongue during explicit kissing scenes. He was then dumped again and AGAIN went on "After the Final Rose" and threw a whole fit that Kaitlyn led him on. Does he not realize that is the literal point of the show? 25 men are dating one woman, 24 of those men are inevitably going to get led on.

On this season of "Bachelor in Paradise" Nick returned yet again as 35-year-old single man with a new haircut and a seemingly calmer and more likable personality. He without a doubt is less gross and less weird on his third time around, but he will never be one of my favorites. This is why when it was recently announced that Nick would be the next Bachelor I absolutely lost it. No like seriously, I had to leave the silent floor of the library because I couldn't stop freaking out and had to call my mom to talk it through with her.

Why am I so unhappy about Nick? First of all this is his fourth time appearing in the series, like does he have some magical job that lets him take crazy amounts of time off to find love and travel the world? Second of all he's kind of old and most of the women who come on the show are 10 years younger than him. Third of all, he's weird and mean! He publicly humiliated Andi, who is one of my favorite people ever I might add, and pulled the same odd moves on Kaitlyn and Andi. I would prefer to not watch the same creepy pick up lines for the thousandth times.

That being said I am obviously going to watch this season because what else do I do with my time. Also, I am praying Andi makes a cameo. I did Instagram direct message her asking if she will be making an appearance, stay tuned to see if she responds!

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
