10 Things Every College Kitchen Needs

1. Coffee

Sometimes I don't just want coffee. . . I need it. Most days, especially for my 8 AM's, it's the only thing that keeps me awake. Thank you, coffee, for never letting me down.

2. Eggs

You don't realize how much of a necessity eggs can be until you wake up on a Saturday morning and realize that you missed the breakfast hours in the CAF. And your roommate is already in the kitchen cooking a nice, hot omelet for you.

3. A Water Filter

Because when the first time you use your sink and brownish looking water comes out, you're just not all that sure how safe the water is.

4. Coconut Oil

This can easily replace oil and butter and it's healthier for you.

5. Cherry Limeade Drink Mix

Water and coffee can only satisfy you for so long until you just have to have something else. That's when Cherry Limeade comes to save the day.

6. A Bulk-Size Box of Muffin Mix

These things are something that I just now realized that has the ability to absolutely save your life because these can easily be turned into pancakes or a small cake or really anything you want that you can google and bake. Pure genius.

7. Cheese

Ever been cooking and realize you didn't have any of the best ingredient? Yeah, same here. And what was that best ingredient? Of course, it was the cheese.

8. Milk & Bread

What are the two main things that are bought when there is a storm coming? Milk and bread. Both of which have to be on this list and they absolutely have to be counted together.

9. Some form of fruit

Good fruit is rare in the CAF so make sure you beg your parents to buy you some next time they come and visit you

10. Ramen Noodles

Because let's face it, we really are super broke and hungry all of the time.

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.

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.
