15 Signs You're The Youngest Sibling (As Told by "Despicable Me")

Being the youngest sibling has always had its ups and downs. You've always been the cutest (except when you had to wear what your mother chose for you), always been the most cherished, (except when there were no adults around) and always gotten your way (except when you didn't). Here are 15 signs that you're the youngest sibling -- and what better way to do that than through "Despicable Me?"

1. You perfected the puppy-dog eyes after seeing your older sibling use them to work your parents like it was their job.

2. Everyone knows the rules don't apply to you.

3. When your sibling gets in trouble, you're always there to remind your parents that you're the best child.

4. You always got the brunt of your sibling's anger.

5. But were the queen (or king) at getting them grounded.

6. You always had someone there for you when you were scared.

7. Being down meant there was always someone there to cheer you back up.

8. You always had a partner in crime.

9. There was always someone to catch you in the act.

10. As a kid, you loved being the center of attention (and still do!)

11. You always wanted to hang out with the big kids.

12. And would get so excited when your older sibling let you.

13. You knew exactly how to use your cuteness to get what you wanted.

14. You can't help being the perfect child.

15. But no matter what, you love your sibling(s) and wouldn't change them for the world.

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.

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.
