10 Things You'll Understand If You Have A Love/Hate Relationship With Your Hair
North DelaWHERE Happening

Have you ever had a bad hair day and contemplated completely changing your hair? If you're thinking, "obviously!" then you know what I mean. Whether it's staring at your hair in the mirror and wondering when it had started looking like a jungle, or changing your mind about your hair style at least twice a week, or going through crazy straightening/curling processes and hair products, some of us are just all too familiar with the stubbornness of our hair. Despite all these frustrations, though, you also never change it. Why?

Because you have developed a love/hate relationship with your hair, and trust me, you're not alone.

Here's some things to show you if you may have a love-hate relationship with your hair.

1. You complain about your hair All. The. Time. It's either too straight or too curly which is kinda annoying. But your friends compliment you, so maybe it's not too bad.

2. Your hair. It's big and poofy. But hey, good thing it has volume right? Right?

3. Orrr it's straight and you sometimes wish it had a little more volume or curl to it. But you save money on a straightener, right? Right?

4. Sometimes you say you hate your hair and you're going to do something drastically different but you know you may regret changing it if you do.

5. When you have a good hair day, it doesn't matter what style it is, time it is, or where you are. This calls for selfie time now. And by selfie time, we mean at least 20 selfies, and an Insta post for good measure. (Bonus points for the good comments about your hair).

6. Shampoos, conditioners, hair products- Anything that goes in your hair must be specific to your needs if you need any sort of styling or taming. That means you may not always like your 'do, but you're still going to want to rock it.

7. Sometimes brushing out your hair is one of the biggest fears. This is going to be a long and probably not the most fun process. But on the bright side? Anything looks better and is easier to deal with than that!

8. Actually, hold off on that.

Maybe there is one thing. Bed head isn't exactly the cutest look. Hello, knots, tangles, and a new style you never even imagined existed!

9. You love getting your hair wet because it's basically a new start for it. You can comb through it easier, blow dry and style, etc. The world is your oyster! And you feel like a boss.

10. But when your hair dries? It's a whoooole other story. At least you enjoyed it while it lasted!

So, there's ups and downs to whatever hair style you have. Some days you may hate it, and other days you may love it! One thing's for sure though — no matter how you feel about it one moment, it's sure to change the next.

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.
