15 Thoughts College Seniors Have

1. I love college, how am I supposed to leave?

While simultaneously thinking, get me the f out of here.

2. What the hell am I going to do with my life?

Is it too late for a Mrs. degree?

3. How do freshmen have so much energy?

Seriously, I don’t get it. I’m exhausted just thinking about the crop tops and bro tanks chugging Bernett’s.

4. Can we do an office bar crawl?

I volunteer as t-shirt designer!

5. But, I don’t want to move home… except I’m broke.

And I don’t have a job (yet) and I have debt and I’m about to be homeless.

6. How am I going to work 9-5 every single day?

Making my 12:40 pm was a stretch, especially after half-off Ricks.

7. Cs get degrees, right?

Surviving not thriving has become my life motto.

8. How am I supposed to be an adult if I still look and feel like I’m 19?

If my ID still gets questioned every time I go to the bar, I must not be ready or qualified to be an adult yet.

9. I can still week-day-darty with a job, right?

I can picture it now, strategizing and discussing the week’s agenda in-between rounds of flip cup!

10. What’s the attendance policy at work?

Will they take my doctor’s notes?

11. Are joggers acceptable work attire?

Fridays are jersey days, right? Can I still dress up for Halloween? Do I have to buy a blazer?

12. Can I still use my on-campus meal plan?

I think I have like ten swipes left, that should last me a while. I’ll just hide food in my briefcase instead of my backpack; I’ll be good to go!

13. How can I make bank while hardly doing any work?

It’s like work hard play hard, but without the work or the play because I get tired simply thinking about work. Maybe I’ll go on the Bachelor and become an Instagram model! Oh, what a life.

14. Can I just stay at college?

Now that I think about it, the alternate reality of college sounds so much better than the reality of being an adult who isn’t in college.

15. Now that I think about it, my parent’s basement doesn’t sound too bad.

It’s mostly warm, it doesn’t smell too bad, and I’ll get to share a room with the washer and dryer so I’ll always have clean clothes!

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.
