We're all a little guilty.

Ahhh relationships...the only socially acceptable reason to walk around in a haze of goo-goo eyes. Or to totally change your personality and start learning about football. Either way, you've probably done some questionable things in the name of love. But don't worry, so has everyone else.

1. You start dating a new guy and suddenly forget that you have other friends.

“Oh wait, this was a girls’ brunch? It’s cool that Brian is here though, right?” No. It’s not cool.

2. Going on one first date and telling everyone how beautiful your wedding will be.

It doesn’t matter that the future groom currently lives in frat house and only eats chicken nuggets. You can overlook that.

3. Accidentally texting the play-by-play of your first date with that sorta-cute Tinder guy TO Tinder guy, and NOT your bestie, who’s waiting to see if he finally gets the spinach out of his teeth.

4.Telling your new boo that you LOVE those hideous chocolates/flowers/novelty socks they gave you. And now you’re doomed to unwrap them for every Christmas, birthday and anniversary until you die.

Or break up, because you can’t stand to tell them you’ve been fake liking it this whole time.

5. Asking your SO to reach something on the shelf at the grocery store and realizing you called them one of your secret pet names.

Don’t mind me, cuddle pants, just crawling into my hole of shame now.

6. Meeting the parents for the first time and immediately forgetting all social skills.

Maybe you tried to talk politics at the dinner table (I don't care if they're voting for Trump, just smile and move on) or you poo-pooed your SO's mother's signature dish. Either way, you never want to show your face again.

7. The first time your boo sees your serial killer mud mask face.

It's not your fault you have large pores.

8. Trying way too hard to get their dog to love you.

See, I'm soooo good with animals. Please love me.

9. Your first all-out fight about which TV shows can be watched separately.

It's like they're cheating on you with Netflix.

10. Low-key stalking all their exes on social media.

It's just for research, OK?

11. Referring to your SO as your dog's parent.

Stop trying to make fetch happen.

12. Dropping some not-so-subtle hints.

Babe, I was watching Say Yes to the Dress today and I just really love destination weddings...what do you think?

13. Getting a little tipsy and letting the L word slip.

Love, who said that? Me? I mean...I love this pizza...

14. Invoking the royal "We"

Yeah...you're the couple that makes everyone want to barf.

15. Forgetting your SO's favorite food/name of beloved childhood pet/best friend.

You done messed up...


So maybe you've done some (or all) of the things on this list-let us know (we won't judge-much).

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.
