10 Thoughts You Have When Seeing Snow For The First Time

A lot of people won't understand the feeling of seeing snow for the first time, especially if you live in cities like New York. Though everyone of you have experienced it you probably don't remember how it feels. It feels like waking up in heaven... literally. As strange as this sounds, all you first timers out there aren't alone! Waking up to a bright white blanketed ground, a cold breeze, and the odd feeling of entering an entirely new world. The excitement is real, so for those of you that don't understand what the big deal is here is a little look inside a persons thought process after seeing snow for he first time (especially if your first time was Snow Storm Jonas):

1. "OH MY GOD it happened, it happened! I have to call my family back home and tell them i'm in heaven! It looks so pretty!"

2. "What does one wear in this weather? What is considered warm? Will I freeze and die?"

3. "So it's like minus one degrees outside! That means that 10 layers should be enough right? Should I wear three layers of pants or something?"

4. "I really just want to walk all over the place and roll in the snow. Why aren't people excited about the snow? They look at me like i'm crazy."

5. "Where do the squirrels go when it snows?" Although honestly you'd be surprised at how many people wonder about the same thing.

6. "Is it supposed to be sunny outside? Why is it sunny?"

7. God bless you if you have a car, "Winter sucks, it's beautiful but it sucks. Where did those shovels go?"

8. "Do I have to go to class now? It's really really cold. Shouldn't class be cancelled?"

9. "Can you eat the ice? Like does it taste weird?"

10. "I miss home, can the snow end already?"

So next time you meet someone who hasn't seen snow before, be prepared! They're going to come to you with stories. It's really heart warming to see people so excited about things most of us are over by now, reminds us of the smaller things that make people happy! Happy Winter Guys!

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.
