Who Do You Truly Think Is Best for America?

Many people complain about both candidates in this year's election. I see and hear it all the time how neither Clinton or Trump is fit to be president, how they are both terrible and we "have" to pick between the lesser of two evils.

My question to the nation then is: Why are you going to vote for either?

Well over half of the people I know, maybe even 3/4ths believe that both candidates are awful. Assuming that this rough statistic is true for all of Americans, this would be the perfect year to have a third party candidate win. I want America to have the president that America thinks is best fit. I think it is universally understood that the Electoral College is something that needs to go, however, if one candidate does no receive over half (270/538) of the electoral votes, then it is up to the House of Representatives to chose the president. If this happens, each state will gather their representatives to provide only one vote per state as to who the president should be. If this happens, there is a better chance that someone fit to be president in the eyes of Americans will become president.

What am I trying to say?

All I am saying is, simply vote for who YOU thing is best for America. Do not simply vote party lines, do not vote based on peer pressure. Please do not not vote, because by not voting you are simply letting others chose the fate of America for you. Research the candidates for who they really are, not just what you see on social media and the news. If you think a write-in is best, do that! Because if what I believe is true, that over half of Americans see neither candidate to be fit for the Oval Office, then neither of the candidates will be voted in office!

So go vote, vote for who you think is best. The only person who will know who you voted for is you.

I definately support Trump, I think he is the best option for America right now. However, I want the president to be whoever America thinks is best for America right now.

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.
