What Trump Fans And Beliebers Have In Common

Hordes of people screaming and crying at the very sight of him. Nationwide tours in large, packed arenas to an adoring mass of fans holding signs and wearing his merchandise.

After waiting outside in lines for hours, these fans scream uncontrollably, but who can blame them? They're seeing their favorite celebrity in person, in real life. There's no screen in between you and them.

"I can't believe it's really them." Unbelievable, isn't it. It's them in the actual flesh. Smiles creep around everywhere. I saw them on TV, but now it's really there. "He's in my vicinity." Screams echo around the packed arena, undoubtedly because everyone is thinking the same thing.

For a second you're just in complete awe. Then they start, and they have your full support. You cheer along, chant all the hits exactly when you need to.

Everyone around you is just as big a fan as you are, and together you belt out your favorites at the top of your lungs. You feel such a sense of community with these other fans.

You cheer when they smile back at you. They thank you for coming out, but all you can think is "no, thank you. Thank you for existing, thank you for helping me through such hard times. Thank you for everything that you do and working so hard for your fans."

But all you can do is scream and cheer. You support them without them knowing all you do. You defend them against their haters on the internet and defend them despite the risk of losing the respect of your friends and family. You support them no matter what they do, even if they do offensive things and are rude.

Who am I talking about? What did I just describe?

If you're deciding between either a Trump Rally or a Justin Bieber Concert, you're right.

An overwhelmingly large amount of Trump's supporters are rural and frankly, poor. To be honest, I have been waiting for their enlightenment. I was waiting for Trump supporters to realize exactly what they have gotten this entire country into once Trump started to cut crucial programs that keep them alive, like Meals on Wheels.

Too bad I didn't account for the fact that these people worship Trump. For example, there was a Florida Trump supporter who refused to take off her Make America Great Again hat in her driver's license photo, and cited religion as her reason.

These people support Trump the way Beliebers support Justin Bieber. That metaphor is scarily accurate. Trump supporters won't "wake up." They're as devoted to Trump as a 13 year old is to Bieber.

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.
