14 Reasons Why Winter Is The Best Season

1. Family

Whether you have two people in your family or 30, it's always nice to be with each other for the holiday season.

2. Christmas Specials

Who doesn't like the movies all about Christmas, whether it's "A Christmas Story," "Elf," "Santa Claus," or "The Polar Express."

3. Christmas-Themed TV Shows

They are always funny, and get us in the mood for Christmas. Man, I really can't wait now!

4. Snow

There are two reactions to the first snowfall. You either curse to yourself, or you are ecstatic with joy. I love snow and everything about it. I may have driven through a blizzard or two just to deliver pizza, but in the end, it was worth it. I will always love and cherish snow!

5. Food

I don't like sweets, but I love gingerbread houses. I don't know why, but I think it has to do something with the Christmas theme.

6. The Cold

I love the cold; I always have my windows open, and my roommates hate me for it.

7. The Songs

Self explanatory; every season is the right season.

8. Winter Break

Once again, self explanatory; you worked your butt off, and now you deserve a break!

9. Yule Log

There's something about sitting on the couch with the loved ones just watching a burning log on TV as Christmas songs play. Is it just me, or am I crazy?

10. Santa

He's that cool guy who comes once a year to give you gifts. All you have to do is believe!

11. Ice Skating

I may not be the best at ice skating, but it's still fun.

12. NHL Winter Classic

Fact: bears love hockey. Fact: bears beat Battlestar Galactica.

13. New Year's

Explosions, New Year's kisses, and pointless resolutions. Nothing is better than that!

14. Snow Sports

Anything that involves the snow is awesome, especially Skiing and snow ball fights!

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.
