12 Things To Worry About Besides Creepy Clowns

Huffington Post

Unless you live under a rock you have probably heard about creepy clown sightings. It seems pretty terrifying, especially when you hear about these clowns harassing people. The thing is, you are probably only hearing about these things, not even seeing them. Thanks to social media we get to see videos and pictures of these creeps, but are there actually any near us? Are people just freaking out and saying they saw a clown? If you are like me, I am not worrying about creepy clowns until I see one, and then I'll beat the crap out of it. There are other things in this world you need to worry about.

1. Midterms and projects

It's that time of the semester when your professor wants you to be miserable. Here's a huge group final project to work on and a midterm to study for. C's get degrees, fam.

2. This election

There's no sane good choice. But I would probably be terrified to see someone dressed as Trump or Hillary chasing after me. Be worried about that BS.

3. What to be for Halloween

Not a clown.

4. Your bank account

Who isn't broke? We all are spending money on supplies to purge these clowns.

5. STDs

Hey, I don't know your life but that might be something you should worry about. Not me though...mom, dad...not me, I'm good.

6. Sports

Baseball is coming close to an end, football is going, hockey season is about to start. I'm more stressed about the Blues first game against the Blackhawks than I am anything else. LGB

7. Loaded shotguns

Shout out to TFM (Total Frat Move) for showing the world men putting random shit into their shotguns before jugging it. If I ever see someone put their sandwich into a beer again...please just stop letting this be a thing.

8. Bee population

THE BEES ARE DYING AT AN ALARMING RATE.

9. Riots

People need to stop killing cops and one another. Calm the hell down.

10. What to eat for dinner

There comes a time when you need to stop going through the drive through every single day.

11. Spring break

It's never too early to start planning for SPRANGBREAK '17.

12. National debt

The United States is $19.3 trillion in debt! Where are we putting this money?! Area 51? Fort Knox?

25 Beatles Lyrics: Your Go-To Guide for Every Situation

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

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.

Student Life

Dealing with the inevitable realities of college life.

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.

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

And in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make

The sun is up, the sky is blue, it's beautiful and so are you

Love is old, love is new, love is all, love is you

There's nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be

Life is very short, and there's no time for fussing and fighting, my friend

He say, "I know you, you know me", One thing I can tell you is you got to be free

Oh please, say to me, You'll let me be your man. And please say to me, You'll let me hold your hand

It was twenty years ago today, Sgt. Pepper taught the band to play. They've been going in and out of style, but they're guaranteed to raise a smile

Living is easy with eyes closed, misunderstanding all you see

Can you hear me? When it rains and shine, it's just a state of mind

Little darling, it's been long cold lonely winter. Little darling, it feels like years since it' s been here. Here comes the sun, Here comes the sun, and I say it's alright

We danced through the night and we held each other tight, and before too long I fell in love with her. Now, I'll never dance with another when I saw her standing there

I love you, I love you, I love you, that's all I want to say

You say you want a revolution. Well you know, we all want to change the world

All the lonely people, where do they all come from. All the lonely people, where do they all belong

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends

Hey Jude, don't make it bad. Take a sad song and make it better

Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away. Now it looks as though they're here to stay. Oh, I believe in yesterday

And when the brokenhearted people, living in the world agree, there will be an answer, let it be.

And anytime you feel the pain, Hey Jude, refrain. Don't carry the world upon your shoulders

I'll give you all I got to give if you say you'll love me too. I may not have a lot to give but what I got I'll give to you. I don't care too much for money. Money can't buy me love

All you need is love, love is all you need

Whisper words of wisdom, let it be

Blackbird singing in the dead of night, Take these broken wings and learn to fly. All your life, You were only waiting for this moment to arise

Though I know I'll never lose affection, for people and things that went before. I know I'll often stop and think about them. In my life, I love you more

Obviously the best superpower.

There have been many lessons learned.

1. The importance of traditions.

2. How to be thankful for family and friends.

3. How to give back.

4. What the word "community" really means.

5. That it isn't about the destination, but the journey.

6. The consequences of making bad choices.

7. To trust people, until you have a reason not to.

8. To be welcoming and accepting of everyone.

9. How to be my own, individual person.

10. How to work for what I want.

11. How to be great at giving directions.

12. How to be humble.

13. To be well-rounded.

14. How to be great at conflict resolution.

15. The beauty of getting outside and exploring.

16. To be prepared for anything.

17. That you don't always have to do it alone.

18. How to be creative.

19. To brush off gossip.

I have never been so thankful to know you.
