10 Things Every College Student Wants For Christmas

As we're coming up on Christmas and every college student is getting asked about what they want this year, here's your guide:

1.Money

All we do is go to classes, there is never time to work. We are always looking for those few extra bucks to get a coffee or a new pair of leggings.

2.No final exams

STRESS. Lots of it. Let's just cancel all of them and go straight to Christmas.

3.Homemade, edible food

That classic casserole that your mom makes every time you go home. Those endless snacks from the cabinet. No more ramen!

4.A comfy bed

A bed that fits both of your legs and does not look like a big changing table.

5.Family

Even just being in the same house as them for some time is therapeutic enough. Knowing they are there if you need them is enough.

6.Someone to do their laundry

No more hauling that laundry basket 3 floors down. Time for someone else to take charge of your life because it has only been a few months and you are sick of it.

7.12 uninterrupted hours of sleep

Goodnight, enough said.

8.Showering without flip flops

Shown above is the dance we will all be doing when we are at home in our own shower. That hot water that actually has pressure, thank god.

9.No questions about college

"What are you majoring in?" "How has the first semester gone?" "What are your grades like?"

10.Hometown friends

You know who they are. Everytime you see them you feel like you are back in hgh school having a sleepover movie night.

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?
