10 Thoughts Every Person Has as the New Semester Begins as Told by Michael Scott

I know, I know... this is awfully depressing. It is safe to say this has been the fastest summer of my ENTIRE life. Where did the time go? I feel like the last day of school was minutes ago. The thought of summer coming to an end for the treacherous school year to start makes me absolutely cringe. Putting away those beaten up birkenstocks of all of those fresh memories truly brings a tear to my eye. Wouldn't you agree? I have compiled a list of 10 thoughts that every person has as summer comes to an end and the brand new semester begins.


1. When your alarm goes off on the first day back to school and you truly don't know if your life is a sick joke or not.


2. When your first day of class consists of icebreakers and you have to describe yourself to the class.


3. When your professor has the nerve to start teaching the first week of school.


4. When the same annoying people are in your class that were last year...



5. When you walk into your class realizing you literally don't know a single person.


6. When your professor calls on you to answer a question but you may or may not have been online shopping/blacked out.



7. When you get your syllabus and see the 76 textbooks that you need to buy just for that single class:)


8. The first group project of the year commences and well...


9. When you may or may not have failed your first test of the semester due to excessive drinking.


10. Honestly, I think we all can agree this face describes our overall thoughts.

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.

It's easier than you think.

"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.
