Curly hair is probably the best and worst thing ever. Everybody that doesn't have it wants it and everybody that has it (sometimes) doesn't want it. I myself have an afro-esque mane that is sometimes a lot to handle. Anyone that has curly hair can relate to these moments. These are 11 things that only people with curly hair hear constantly.

1. "You hair must LOVE humidity!"

I don't know why, but this is something that people say all the time. My hair may love the humidity, but I do not.

2. "Why don't you brush your hair? Doesn't it get super tangled?!"

Then you have to explain that it can get even more frizzy. I know, it's hard to believe.


3. "I really like your hair straight! I think I like it more than your natural hair!"

Thank you..??

4. "You could do SOOO much with your hair!"

For those that know me, they know that this is insanely accurate.

5. "It must take FOREVER to get your hair that way!"

This is too true.

6. "I wish I had your hair!" First reaction:

Attempting to be modest, but knowing that it really is fabulous.


7. "I wish I had your hair!" Second reaction:

Trying to help them realize that it really is not all it's cracked up to be.

8. "It's probably nice to never have to do anything with your hair!"

In all reality, it is still pretty difficult to have a good hair day.

9. "You know, what you SHOULD do with your hair is..."

Please, tell me! I mean I may not listen, but go ahead!

10. "I just love your hair so much, can I touch it?!"

NOOOOO. I really don't want you to. I don't.

11. "Is you hair naturally curly? I love it!"

In the end, people have (mostly) nice intentions, and they really do want to have curly hair. So, we shall cope on! Hoorah for natural curls! Flaunt it!

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.

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.
