April Fools Day is either your favorite or your absolute least favorite day of the year. It's the one day out of the 365 days a year that you can get away with playing the cruelest jokes on your loved ones. Here are a few of my favorite to help make your April Fools Day a successful one.

1. Prank Call

This one is a classic. Dial up your friends from an unknown number and pretend like they've won a contest.

2. Soap Prank

This one is another classic. Get a bar of soap and cover it with clear nail polish, but make sure you cover it completely. If you miss any spots on the soap the prank will be no good. I like this prank because it is an easy and cheap way to trick someone.

3. Confetti Surprise

Put some confetti on a ceiling fan and wait for the victim to turn it on. It will be quite the surprise.


4. Computer Mouse Prank

Get a small piece of paper or a piece of tape and cover the sensor on the bottom of your victims computer mouse.

5. M&M Prank

Put a bunch of M&Ms and Skittles (and maybe Reese's Pieces if you're sure your victim isn't allergic) together in a bowl.

6. Car Prank

Leave a note on your victims car and apologize for something that didn't actually happen.

7. Rainbow Windshield Prank

Put paint right by the edge of your victim's windshield wiper. This way as soon as they turn them on a rainbow will appear. Hopefully the weather will help you out, too. MAKE SURE TO ONLY DO ON THE PASSENGER SIDE SO THAT THE DRIVER CAN STILL SEE.

8. Autocorrect/Shorcut Prank

Change the autocorrect in your victims phone to a bunch of silly things.

9. Alarm Prank

To set an alarm on someones iPhone does not require you to actually get into their phone. Swipe up on the lock screen, press the timer button, and set a random alarm.

10. Toothpaste Prank

This prank is another classic. Replace the filling in Oreos with a nice toothpaste filling.

11. Bug Prank

You can do this prank anywhere, but I suggest putting the creepy crawlers in a lamp. This will be sure to freak out your victim.

Hopefully these 11 pranks help make your April Fools day a little more fun. Happy scaring!

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