Based on Jay Asher's 2007 bestselling book, 13 Reasons Why has been adapted into a Netflix series that has everyone talking. The thirteen-episode show tells the story of a seventeen-year-old girl named Hannah who commits suicide and leaves a series of tapes for thirteen people, explaining the reasons why she did what she did. The show is heavy, and the themes and messages it touches on are not always easy to watch, but they're important. Heaviness aside, if you've watched the show, there are some things on the lighter side that you may notice, and we could think of a few different names this show could've gone by.


1. "13 Shades of Clay's Forehead Scrape"

Did Clay ever get that cut checked out? Why does he only put a Band-Aid on it in some episodes and not others? What is that awful yellow color it was turning and why are people not commenting on this horrific looking gash?

2. "13 Super Short Dresses That Sheri Bought at Gap Kids, Probably"

Seriously, those things could fit a toddler.


3. "13 Times I've Wondered Why No One is Judging Justin for His Chest Tattoo"

It looks like the "No Ragrets" tattoo from We're the Millers. I can't even tell what it says, but it's hard to look at. You're better than that, Justin.


4. "13 Reasons Jeff Atkins Deserved Better"

R.I.P. Jeff, you wonderful, kind, baseball player.


5. "13 Times I Gagged Because Jessica Drinks Straight Vodka"

That girl's got a crazy tolerance. If she didn't clearly have a drinking problem, I'd be kind of impressed by her ability to chug vodka straight.


6. "13 Times I Felt Personally Victimized by the Guidance Counselor"

HE WAS JUST THE WORST.


7. "13 Reasons Courtney Set Women Back 40 Years"

Not only did she throw Hannah under the bus to keep her own secret, which is breaking every girl code ever, she refused to acknowledge that what she did was wrong on any level. On top of being an all-around crappy person, she victim-shamed Jessica AND Hannah. I'm still angry she defended Bryce and sided with all the guys who wanted to keep Bryce's crimes a secret.


8. "13 Times I Remembered My Childhood Because Clay is Actually Todd from 'The Clique'"

Ah, how's he grown!


9. "13 Times I Wondered if Hannah Put Gel in Her Hair Or if it Was Naturally Like That"

I seriously wanted to touch her hair the entire series. It just looked so......crunchy? Also her short hair was definitely a poorly adjusted wig that I wanted to fix myself the entire time, but hey that's just me.


10. "13 Times Tony Was the Best Character, But Also the Worst"

He was sketchy as Hell and spoke in riddles, and let's not forget he made Clay climb up that rock even though they could've just gone on the trail. Still, he did what he did to protect Clay and make sure what happened to Hannah didn't happen to him. The best, but the worst.


11. "13 Times I Wished There Was a Cool Coffee Place Like Monet's in My Town"

Why don't my friends and I go get trendy coffee and read tarot cards? I'm confused.


12. "13 Reasons I'm So Glad I Didn't Go to That God Awful High School"

High school was rough but this high school seems especially terrible, especially with people like Bryce running the school. No, thank you.


13. "13 Times This Show Was Frustrating But So Important"

Granted, you should read the book, but this show demonstrates the importance of telling the truth and being kind to everyone because you don't know what they're going through.

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.
