A Few Reasons Why Seagulls Should Go Extinct
Ashlyn Edmondo

As I've been sitting and enjoying myself by the hotel pool here in San Diego for my cousin's wedding, I've had a few menacing visitors! The seagulls just never stop. They're everywhere, bugging and stealing and "mine,mine, mine-ing" (for those of you who have seen finding nemo)! I discussed with my cousins some reasons why seagulls should just go extinct!


1. They steal sunscreen.

Talking to my cousin, she told me she had a seagull steal her sunscreen right out of her hands!


2. They are just plain aggressive birds!

Seagulls will do anything for a bite of food or to steal something. Watch out, they'll bite you!


3. They live in places that aren't even the sea.

For my devout followers, you know I live close to Lake Tahoe, and seagulls are residents of Lake Tahoe as well! Darn birds ruining our mountain lake!


4. They poop on you.

This one is pretty self explanatory for all birds. They poop like any other animal, but for Seagulls, I think it is intentional!


5. They aren't afraid of humans.

Seagulls will walk up to any of us humans and strike up a conversation like we're old friends! You may try to shoo it away, but that never seems to work!


6. They steal breadsticks straight out of your hand.

My family and I were at the San Diego zoo years back and my sister had a breadstick in her hand while up on my dads shoulders. A seagull dive bombed and swiped the breadstick right out of her hand! Lesson learned, don't eat breadsticks on dad's shoulders!


7. They were perfectly portrayed in finding Nemo.

Whenever anyone sees a seagull they say, "mine!"


8. They have seagull telepathy.

When there's food or people on a beach with food, they swarm. They jump you like some kind of seagull gang!


9. They stare into your soul.

Seagulls want to make sure you know that they are the superior species, but that is not the case.

Seagulls are a menace to society and bug the human race. I know wishing extinction on an animal is harsh, but man, seagulls are awful!

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.
