10 Thoughts You Have As Thanksgiving Break Approaches

There's no denying that this semester has flown by. Insane right? But here are some thoughts we can all relate to.

1. I can't wait to stuff my face with homemade food.

Campus food does not compare to mom's homemade meals, especially for Thanksgiving.

2. My bed is calling me.

I must fix the relationship between me and my bed. I'm so sorry for leaving you.

3. So many final papers and projects due after break.

It's the beginning of the end.

4. I wonder what my grade is in (insert class here)

*Insert panic here*

5. I wonder how many friends I can catch up with this week.

Everyone is home so we may as well hang out, right?

6. Do professors have their own Thanksgiving traditions?

Don't deny it. You've wondered if they hate turkey and make a ham instead or something along those lines.

7. Will anyone notice the 30 lbs I put on over break?

God, I hope all that pie will be worth it.

8. Do I really have to go back to school after Thanksgiving?

My professors probably won't notice I'm gone, right?

9. I CANNOT WAIT TO SEE MY DOG/CAT/RABBIT/ANY PET.

I HAVE MISSED NO ONE MORE THAN YOU, FURRY FRIEND.

10. I wonder how many plates of food I can manage to eat.

Not all in one sitting of course ;)

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.
