10 Reasons Daryl Dixon Is The Best Character On 'The Walking Dead'

There's nobody better than Daryl Dixon.


1. He has a bad ass crossbow.

Ever since we first saw Daryl appear on our TV screens with his crossbow, we all knew he was going to be an important character on the show. It was the first time all of us got the chance to fall in love with him; and not to forget to mention, he has the ability to shoot any walker and/or animal with his crossbow.

2. He loves baby Judith more than anything.

Ever since Judith was born, Daryl has been attached to her. Before she got her name and while Rick was still devastated by Lori’s death, Judith was called "little ass-kicker;" all thanks to Daryl. Even after she was given a proper name, we all know secretly that we still wanted her name to be "little ass-kicker."

3. He and Beth would have made the perfect couple.

When the Governor came to the prison and blew it up, we had no idea who would go where and who they would be with. However, even in that confusion, we still didn't expect Daryl and Beth to be together.

As their story went on, we soon realized how great they were together. Beth got Daryl to open up about his life and in return, Daryl got Beth to be more open about various topics. It was so heart-breaking and depressing when she died because we were forced to watch Daryl cry in mourning.

4.His relationship with Rick.

Daryl and Rick started off hating each other in the beginning, simply because they had different views on how to run the group. Daryl didn't like how Rick at one point left his brother alone on the roof. Through time though, Rick and Daryl learned how to work with each other and eventually became brothers.

5. He will do anything for the group.

Daryl will do anything to support and help the group without even thinking about the consequences. At one point, he agrees to go out with a man who he doesn’t know, in order to help the group. Also, he frequently goes out of his way to find food for the group when they have absolutely none.

6.His love for Merle.

Daryl and Merle have definitely had their fair share of ups and downs, but they always come back for each other. They've fought together and they've fought against each other. Although they fought against each other, Daryl still didn't want to see his brother die. However, he knew it would have to happen and was absolutely devastated and angry at Rick.

7. His poncho

We don't see Daryl in his poncho a lot nowadays, but when he wore it - you knew he was ready to kill some walkers. After he stopped wearing it, we realized just how much we really did like his poncho. Although, his jacket he likes to wear now is pretty cool too.

8. His leather jacket with wings.

If Daryl isn’t wearing his poncho, then he's most likely wearing his leather jacket with the wings; which we all want - don’t try to deny it. The wings on the back are the best part of the vest-like jacket. When we see him, we automatically notice and see his beloved jacket.

9. His mo torcycle.

Each time Daryl goes out to either look for new people or to simply go to town, he is always riding his motorcycle. Even though it's loud and can attract walkers, he still - and always will be - riding it; perhaps even until long after the apocalypse is over.

10. He stays true to himself

Even though the zombie apocalypse is going on, he never loses sight of who he really is.

Keep being you Daryl Dixon!

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.

Others have slaved away many nights under the fluorescent lights, and are slightly annoyed to find their study space being invaded by amateurs.
