Hello!

Today we're going to talk about the great Bob Ross. Why are we talking about Bob Ross? Because everyone should talk about Bob Ross. His calm voice and happy disposition should be something that everyone should appreciate. With a single stroke of that voice he had a tendency to just drop some emotional and intellectual bombs on his viewers, blowing the paintbrushes right out of their hands. Here's a short list of his masterpieces.

1. There was the time when he beautifully informed us of the freedom of the skies.

2. There was the time that he said what we all needed hear.

3. There was that one time that when he gave us the warning that we all desperately needed.

4. He once gave us the perfect recipe for a good day.

5. There was the one time when he simply added some water to the glass half empty.

When in doubt, make it a bird.

6. There was the time when he assured us that we're always right.

7. There was that one time when his son came in for the episode and dropped some serious knowledge on how to make your foliage flourish.

8. There was that one time when he reminded us all that we're not alone in our loneliness.

9. There was that one time when he pointed out that we are surrounded by something that can make us happy: nature.

11. There was that one time that he gave us both financial and emotional advice.

12. There was the time when he let us in on his biggest secret: practice.

13. And then he revealed yet another secret to success.

What an open book that man was.

14. Like father like son.

15. There was the time when he gave us a nice geology lesson.

16. There was the time when he told us again that practice is the key to everything.

And that basically, if you're not talented, it's kind of your fault.

17. There was that one time he made it known that we can find friends anywhere.

18. There was the time when he reminded us that we are all rulers.

And finally, from dear Bob and I:

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.

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.
