I was born in the late 90s, but I definitely consider myself to be a 2000s kid. These are a few things I think of when I think back on the 2000s and my childhood, and I hope they're relatable to you too and put a nostalgic smile on your face!

1. You Were Obsessed With Hilary Duff

She starred in one of your favorite TV shows and so many of your favorite movies: "Lizzie McGuire", "A Cinderella Story", "Cheaper by the Dozen", "Cadet Kelly", "Material Girls", and many more. You also owned all of her CDs and still know every word to "Come Clean" and "So Yesterday". What a queen.

2. Limited Too (And Eventually Justice) Was Your Go-To Store

It was your one-stop shop for all of your bathing suits, graphic tees, and jewelry.

3. Floam Fantasized You

The science behind it didn't make sense to you, but those commercials worked, and you wanted some. Bad.

4. You Owned Every Mary Kate And Ashley Movie

From "It Takes Two" to "New York Minute," these sisters had you hooked.

5. Your Favorite Books Were Amelia Bedelia, Junie B. Jones, Or Magic Tree House

Your love for reading started with these classic pieces of literature.

6. You Asked For A New American Girl Doll Every Birthday/Christmas

You also had to have the accessories such as the bed, puppy, and plenty of outfits. I mean...your dolls only deserved the best.

7. You Were Jealous Of Everyone Who Had A Razr

You definitely tried to convince your parents that you needed one.

8. Troy And Gabriella Were Your First #RelationshipGoals

HSM had you way too excited for high school.

9. Zoey 101 Made You Want A Jet X

You wanted a pink one, just like Zoey!

10. Disney Channel Crossovers Were Basically Your Favorite Thing Ever

Sweet niblets! No running in my lobby, ya nasty!

11. You Spent Your Afternoons Playing Online With Your Webkinz

Webkinz was so much better than Club Penguin. Don't fight me on this.

12. You Begged Your Parents For Tickets To The Hannah Montana/Miley Cyrus Best Of Both Worlds Tour

Miley Cyrus was at her prime as Hannah. The Jonas Brothers (aka the dreamiest boys in all of the land) were the opening act. You couldn't have dreamed of anything better. You tried to get tickets, but the show sold out almost instantly, and you had to settle for watching it on TV. If you're anything like me, you're still a little salty about it.

13. On That Note, You And Your Friends Each Had A Favorite Jonas Brother

Joe was obviously the best.

14. You Eventually Traded In Your Gameboy For A Nintendo DS

You definitely used PictoChat to message your friends that were in the same room as you.

Thank you for the memories, 2000s!

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. 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.
