I know sooo many people are against Valentine's Day and the whole "capitalistic card industry" and "chocolates" and "needing a partner" blah, blah, blah.

If you know me then you know I'd be really offended if these were your views.

Maybe, suddenly, you've had a change of heart and decided to give valentines to all your favorite people and feel all warm and fuzzy from the love.

If that's the case, then check out my list of valentine's gifts you can get within the week and delivered just as quick.


1. Flamethrower

When I first saw this flamethrower thing, I thought it was a joke. It's not. They've all been preordered but you could tell someone you entertained the idea of purchasing them one. Or maybe just print out the picture of it? Plus, nothing says love like fire being sprayed at you.

2. A box of those valentines you'd give to your elementary class

Remember when you made those little mailboxes and you had to give a valentine to everyone in your class including that boy in the corner who was so annoying and kinda smelled weird?? Ugh, classic.

3. Fuzzy socks

Bonus points if they have cute little animals on them like these!! And click here to order yours now to make sure they make it to your person's place before the day!!

4. A chipotle coupon

Now that's just wonderful of you to do. Good work.

5. At least $3 sent to their Venmo account

What's better than real money? Electronic money. Show someone you care by sending at least $3 to their account. We all know you can last 1 day without the regular Dunkin'.

6. Making someone Annie's mac and cheese for dinner/snack/any time of the day really

This sounds wonderful to me (cough cough friends cough)!! What a nice way to spend time together!!

7. An expired coupon book

You tried, you know?

8. Make them a "boyfriend" pillow

Or whomever they prefer. What a great way to show you care - through a homemade gift!!

9. A trip to the dog park

It's not Paris or any tropical island, but it's good enough.

10. Frozen pizza

It's almost as good as a fresh pizza. Kinda.

11. Roses sent to them the day after Valentine's Day

Again, you tried. It's really the thought that counts and I'm sure the person who gets them will be happy you were thinking of them!!


However you spend the day, just show appreciation toward something or anything! Make a donation to your favorite charity or cause, call your mom or your senators, give someone a hug. Doesn't matter what you do, just make the world a better place.

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.
