19 Subway Thoughts As Told By 'Inside Out'

If you live in New York, you are most likely very familiar with the subway system. It is often a very convenient way to get to where you are going for fairly cheap. It is an imperative part of NYC living, but that doesn't mean it doesn't have its flaws. It seems that our favorite animated movie tells a pretty clear story of your average ride on the subway.

1. When you make the decision to take the subway

2. You walk down the stairs only to find out they're doing construction on your line

Shout out to the 1 which always seems to have delays

3. When you swipe your metro card only to find out its empty

Or worse it has like 2.37 on it

4. Or when the turnstile makes you swipe your card three times

And then you're paranoid it charged you more than once

5. But the worst is when you need to ask the person in the booth a question and they give you attitude

This is literally your only job.

6. When you expect the performers to be like this

7. But they end up being like this

8. So you just stare at them like this

9. When people try to solicit money from you

10. When you see someone peeing with no regard to who is watching

11. Or an inebriated person tossing their cookies

12. When your favorite song comes on shuffle and you forget you're in public

So baby I'm just gonna shake shake shake shake shake...

13. When the doors won't close because an oblivious human is standing in the way

"Hi sir- yes, you're the one holding us all up."

14. When no one will get up for the pregnant woman or child to sit

15. When the person next to you clearly needs a shower

16. When your car is totally empty

17. When the car is packed and you get smushed

18. When you finally get to your stop but no one will let you out

19. And when you finally make it to your destination

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.
