20 Things To Leave In 2016

The new year is here, and for some, it holds new chances and for others the new year is just another day. I would like to believe we are given the new year to see that anything is possible and change is a good thing. Here are 20 things I'll be leaving (or at least attempting to leave) in 2016.

1. Toxic friendships.

2. Caffeine (this one is an attempting to leave).

3. Any article of clothing I've had since middle school (RIP Aeropostale).

4. Grudges -- forgive and forget.

5. All of your self-doubt- if you can survive 2016 you can survive anything #word.

6. Eating out all the time -- learn to cook a few basic meals.

7. Bad spending habits, your future self will thank you.

8. Your ex-boyfriend's number, delete it, sister!

9. Bad eating habits "Eat a salad to stay healthy and cake to stay sane."

10. Pictures of old boyfriends.

11. All the bad memories you made.

12. All the clothes you don't wear, buy yourself ones you actually like.

13. Bad feelings towards your family, they are not going to change. Live and let live.

14. Close mindedness- try something new you never know what could happen.

15. All of the emails you never read. Unsubscribe.

16. Negative body image. The average size of a woman in the United States is a 16, you are normal. Love yourself, girl!

17. All the unnecessary clutter in your house.

18. Any bad habits; cussing, smoking, etc.

19. For my college aged folks, all of those old T-shirts from high school. You know you will never wear them again.

20. Anything you want: make 2017 YOUR year!!

Happy New Year, everyone!! Make this your year, embrace who you are and l-o-v-e it. Peace and blessings!

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. For some students, it's their first time in the library all semester, maybe ever. 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.
