Perks Of Being Single

With the holiday season upon us, (or as some like to call it, cuffing season) it's hard not to get that loathsome feeling feeling in your chest that makes you want to binge watch Hallmark Christmas movies and cry of loneliness, trust me, I've been there. But why is every single person I know, including myself at times, letting this be what defines them this time of year, or anytime of year for that matter?! Being single around Christmas time, or at all, is really never without its perks and its time we all started realizing it!

1. It Saves Money!


One less present to buy WOHOO!

2. More "Me" Time.


Who doesn't love alone time! So much time to sit and do what ever the heck you want! Go ahead eat the entire bag of Doritos, no one else will know!

3. You Never Have to Share The Covers!

Say goodbye to waking up shivering because you thought using one blanket was totally going to be enough.

4. Never have to compromise on where to eat.


Gone are the times when figuring out where to eat was a never ending choice that always seems to end an argument anyway.

5. Personal Hygiene Isn't Top Priority


Shaving, laundry, and morning breath? Don't worry about it!

6. Flirt With Whoever You Want


Go ahead get your wink on!

7. Celebrity Crushes Are Still Serious Possibilities

8. Be As Gross and Lazy As You Want

9. Free To Make Big Life Decisions

Who says you can't move across the country or move to Guam for a year?

10. Falling in Love With You.


It is often said that the best relationships are when you fall in love with your best friend, but how can you do that until you learn to truly love you for you?

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week. For some students, it's their first time in the library all semester, maybe ever. Others have slaved away many nights under the fluorescent lights, and are slightly annoyed to find their study space being invaded by amateurs. While these newbies wander aimlessly around the first floor, hopelessly trying to find a table, the OGs of the library are already on the third floor long tables deep into their studies. Here is a few signs that you may live in the library, whether you'd like to admit it or not.
