15 Revealed Stereotypes from Little House on the Prairie
Little House Wikia

We all have seen and adored the 1970s show adapted from Laura Ingalls Wilder's Little House book series. Now we have the opportunity to revisit the series and observe the characters' tendencies, which undoubtedly pertain to individuals in our own daily encounters.

Drum roll, please.

1. The Humorist

It will work out Half-Pint. I promise. And if it doesn't, we can laugh about it.

2. The Blabbermouth

Are you ready to hear the newest scandal from the self-indulgent, middle-aged debutante?

3. The Boyfriend Thief

Cooking one "home-cooked" meal at a time.

4. The Hottie

Making farmers jealous for decades.

5. The Dreamer

Little Red Riding Hood. Braids and all.

6. The Perfect Sibling

Perfect hair. Perfect eyes. Perfect teeth. Perfect hair. Perfect complexion. Perfect grades. Perfect hair. Perfect attitude. Did I mention perfect hair?

7. The Counselor

Shoot for the stars. Follow your heart. Write a series about our family.

8. The Considerate Instructor

Introducing the Mary Poppins of Minnesota.

9. The Outlandish Teacher

I guess she inherited her family's ugly genes.

10. The Bladder

Viewers were not sure whether Carrie had a medical condition or merely a fetish for wooden outhouses.

11. The Rebel

Hey, hey, hey, it's Rad Albert!

12. The Singing Drunk

Remember "Old Dan Tucker"? Sure you do. Go on. Sing it.

13. The Puppet

Poor Nels.

14. The Peacekeeper

Delivering a convenient sermon during every major crisis in Walnut Grove.

15. The Bribed

Candy kept Willie quiet from revealing his sister's dirty secrets... Yet he always ended up in the corner at school.

So now that we have examined the characters' impulses, I have a question for you: which feature best describes you?

Once you have answered this question, it is paramount to recognize that without the other personalities in the show (or in your own daily occurrences), life would be monotonous.

With this in mind, we are called to pray for the blabbermouths and boyfriend thieves; to eat lunch with the dreamers, humorists, and rebels; and to be mindful of the hotties, "perfect" siblings, teachers, bladders, singing drunks, puppets, and bribed individuals (they most likely do not "have it all together"). By doing this, we are able to make this "little earth within the galaxy" an improved dwelling place, by becoming counselors and peacekeepers.

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.
