They're a curse and a blessing.

I'm sure there are people in college like me that were blessed/cursed with having abnormally small feet. There are many perks, but also many struggles, that come along with small feet. However, we all hold a special bond and can relate to many things that come along with this. So I'm just going to highlight a few things that define what it's like to live with small feet

1. People want to compare their feet to yours all the time.

It's kind of fun to see how small your feet are compared to others, but it gets old after you have to compare your feet to every person in the room every time you go to a social gathering and people realize your feet are small...

2. Never being able to borrow friend's or family member's shoes.

Having small feet is the ultimate struggle when you need a certain pair of shoes to match an outfit but can't borrow any because everyone you know has feet that are 4 sizes bigger than yours.

3. Being able to shop in the kid's section.

Kids Shoes


Adult Shoes

This one is honestly such a blessing because kid's shoes are so much cheaper than adult shoes. This especially comes in handy when you are trying to buy name brand shoes like Uggs or Sperrys. Having small feet could save you a decent amount of money!

4. Having Velcro on all your sandals.

The only downside of buying kid shoes is that sometimes they actually look like kid shoes. But hey, at least Velcro saves you time strapping your shoes on.

5. Any shoes or socks or really anything you can put your foot in that is "One Size Fits All" will not fit you.

Your foot will be the one foot that is the exception to "one size fits all".

6. You can still fit into all your shoes from middle school.

People comment on how large your shoe collection is when in reality, it is only that big because you haven't had to get rid of any shoes from 6th grade on.

7. Finding heels in your size is impossible unless you want white First Communion heels.

For some odd reason, people that make heels think people with small feet will never want to wear them. So unless you want to look like a 2nd grader making their First Communion, it's going to be pretty difficult finding heels in a size that'll fit.

8. You are probably really good at Twister.

Think about it -- those circles are super small and your foot is small enough to fit in them when all your friends can only fit on half of it. Jokes on them, because you're winning this one.

9. Small shoe sizes are always on sale.

No one has small feet like you, so the likelihood of all the shoes being, in your size is very good. May the odds be ever in your favor.

10. Your feet are really cute

Odds are if you have small feet, you will get a lot of compliments on how cute and little your feet are. And we all know that compliments are never a bad thing!

So enjoy your little feet, girls! They aren't all that bad!

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.
