College kids are weird. The library is a college student's prime hang out once test week rolls around. There are no rules, no judgment, and anything goes unless you think about what if we all did this in Walmart?

1. Not wearing shoes

You're there for hours on end might as well kick off the Nike's and make yourself at home. Socks only.

2. Crying

It is less an uncommon to see someone tearing up or just straight up balling while attempting to study.

3. Sleeping

It doesn't matter what floor you're on you can almost always find at least one student sleeping...hard.

4. Drinking coffee at 10 p.m

Maybe a cup, maybe a pot

5. Ordering an entire pizza... for yourself

6. Throwing things

Sometimes you just need to hear your water bottle hit the wall in front of you so that you don't go crazy

7. Sitting like a toddler

Criss cross applesauce is the most comfortable sometimes

8. Sitting on the same side of the table

9. Abrupt screaming

10. Walking circles with no destination

11. Asking someone if they're leaving

No pressure, but I need that table

12. Leaving your phone on loud

13. Never taking your headphones out

Just turning your music down instead

14. Crying

Not kidding

15. Intentionally distracting yourself

"Hey, what are you doing six Friday's from now?"

16. Staying for over 24 hours

17. Wearing your pajamas

It's hard to study when you aren't comfortable

Whatever helps to get your work done, do it. No judgment, we're all riding this struggle bus together.

The transition into adulthood is never easy

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.

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?

1. People assume you are mad all of the time.

2. Ten out of ten times you will give off an intimidating impression to others.

3. People do not acknowledge your feelings because you "do not have any."

4. Constantly being exhausted from trying to smile and not look like a witch.

5. And on the rare occasion your facial expressions show how happy you are, your friends think you are going crazy.

6. Each of your friends has said "I thought you were so mean when I first met you" at some point.

7. Then they follow that by saying "you are just hard to read."

8. So naturally if people do not know you they just assume you are a snob.

9. And when you are actually mad, your facial expressions are horrifying.

10. In the end you always look like you are judging people, when in reality people are ALWAYS judging you.

This week, my parents went on vacation and left me with the responsibility of watching the house and the dog. Easy, right? Feed the dog, don’t burn the house down, do whatever you want within reason. I’m not the type to throw wild parties or have a parade of hookups, and my parents know this. The most I do is bring my laptop into the family room and refuse to use headphones.
