Why You NEED to Vote!
Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump

As you all may know we are entering the tail end of the 2016 presidential election, which will determine the 45th president of the United States. This election has been nothing more than a roller coaster ride. The debate between Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump has been quite the......lets just say experience, and we've been right in the middle of it. A lot of voters don't know whether to vote for Clinton or Trump, or either don't want to vote for Trump and is stuck all together. Well I'm here to tell you why you need to vote.

You need to vote because this election determines the very outlook of the country. I'm not going to discriminate nor say who I'm voting for, but I will say that one candidate seems to be more for the job. In order to be commander in chief for the position of president of these United States, you must be acquit and have some order of what you are going to do. I'm telling you the reader to get out and vote for the person you feel will lead this country to a safe path.

Another thing I would take in hand is of course your family. Which candidate do you feel is comfortable for taking care of your family. Over the past 4 years President Barack Obama has created over 15 million jobs, but even he will say that we have a bunch of work to do. Some citizens feel that nothing has been done in the fact of impacting their life or their neighborhood. So as citizens of the US we must elect a president who has family values and who will take the White House to new heights.

One more reason I feel you should get out and vote is the fact of our safety. As we all know a lot of stuff has been going on such as police brutality, gun violence, killings, etc. Now both candidates for the job have been tested when it comes to these sensitive subjects, but I can't stress enough how much one of them I would be just afraid if they were in power. This is a democracy not a dictatorship, that's all I'm going to say.

Go out and vote ladies and gentlemen, this election is very important and every vote matters. This election be apart of history and vote for the candidate you feel that will lead this country in the right path. Especially to my fellow citizens in North Carolina, I believe we've taken enough L's this year. Early voting is now currently going on, make a difference and mark your name in history.

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.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
