Forever wishing I was a wizard.

21 Reasons Why You Wish You Go to Hogwarts

1. The Hogwarts Express seems like an ideal mode of transportation.

With big, comfy seats and a snack trolly full of sweets, it definitely seems better than just a car or a shuttle.

2. So do broomsticks.

I'd get over my fear of heights to learn how to ride a broomstick.

3. You want to know what house you would be placed in.

Sure, you have an idea of whether you'd be a Gryffindor, Slytherin, Hufflepuff, or Ravenclaw, but you want to know where the Sorting Hat would place you.

4. The food in the Great Hall looks much better than your dining hall's.

Feasts literally just appear out from the tables.

5. Pets are actually encouraged.

Who wouldn't want a pet owl?

RIP Hedwig.

6. Fred and George.

You always wished you could witness one of their crazy pranks.

(RIP Fred -- one death I don't think I'll ever be over).

7. ...and the rest of the Weasley family.

The Burrow just seemed so homely, and their family is so large and inviting.

8. A Quidditch match seems much more exciting than football.

A sport that consists of people flying around on broomsticks...I'm in. You also secretly wish you can one day be on the team and catch the snitch to win the game.

9. You get to learn about cool creatures like dragons.

Much better than just boring, old chemistry.

10. The pictures and paintings move.

You could befriend a painting on the wall and your pictures would basically be GIFs.

11. You could be learning cool spells instead of math.

Just like there's an app for everything, there's a spell for everything. You'd literally never even have to stand up again if you wanted. Accio food.

12. Hagrid.

Hagrid is someone you'd definitely want to befriend. He's loyal, trust worthy, and always there when you need help. He also had the best line of pretty much the whole movie series.

13. You would go to school in a castle.

So many secrets passageways to be found.

14. Snape.

You wanna meet Snape and know what his deal is. Potions class sounds a little scary...but so cool.

15. Dumbledore.

A little wacky, but you definitely want him as your advisor because he's old and wise. Did I mention he's also the most powerful wizard in the wizarding world?

16. Sure, you'd have a uniform, but it's a cool ass cape.

You'd low-key be like a superhero all of the time.

17. You get to hangout in the cool house common rooms.

Cozy with fireplaces and big comfy chairs? Much better than the one you have now.

18. Weekend trips to Hogsmeade for Butterbeer.

The perfect little town full of shops and, most importantly, Butterbeer.

19. The candies.

You want to try every Bertie Bott's Every Flavor Beans and eat chocolate frogs all of the time.

20. The Yule ball seems like a good time.

Much better than the galas at your school.

21. New and crazy adventures with new and amazing friends.

Who wouldn't want to join Harry and the gang on all of their wild journey's and adventures? We're the four best friends that anyone could have!

Okay, so...where's my letter?

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.
