10 Thoughts Every Senior Has When They Realize They're a Senior

As we enter Senior year, it slowly but surely becomes a reality that becoming a real human is approaching. I don't know about you, but the thought of being done with college forever and having to face the world as if you haven't spent the last 4 years intoxicated, and only making it to class a few times a week seems like quite the hurdle. Not to mention, I keep forgetting that I am actually a senior and every time I remember I feel like I am being punched in the face. As we move our stuff into our little home away from home for the last and final time, you may catch yourself having these thoughts.



1. Why didn't anyone tell me that happily strutting around with my lanyard freshman year was A REALLY BAD IDEA




2. That whole "becoming a real human after college" thing is a myth right???



3. What is an appropriate age to stop visiting your old school once you graduate?



4. My landlord will have to drag me out if he thinks I'm actually leaving.



5. Is "trying" a thing this year since I'm basically alumni now?



6. I guess I can finally stop eating instant mac and cheese now that I am moving home... and join a gym? No. One big step at a time.



7. How many relatives are going to ask me what my plans are for the future?



8. Is taking another few years off to figure out what I want to be allowed?



9. Ugh I wish I could relive just ONE freshman year party.


10. Remember that time you thought all of your now best friends were the strangest people alive and you would probably hate them.

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. Here is a few signs that you may live in the library, whether you'd like to admit it or not.
