25 Things I Want To Accomplish In Life
Michael Coghlan

This is a personal list that I have constructed that fits my own form of a "bucket list". Some items on this list are not all going to be completed in my life, but all of these reveal some form of my personality and subjects that I hold close to my heart/am incredibly opinionated on. This list has no particular order (in terms of importance or what I wish to complete first), is not complete and there are certain things that I thought of to go on this list, but am not entirely ready to share. So, take this with a grain of salt/skim over it or take these ideas and use them to formulate your own form of the things you want to accomplish/fit on your bucket list.

1. Write for the New York Times

2. Be a curator for a museum

3. Write a book

4. Volunteer with Doctor's without Borders

5. Be fluent in at least five languages

6. Attend medical school

7. Manage your own clinic aimed at low-income families

8. Play a part in fighting for rights for illegal immigrants

9. Create a documentary about a controversial issue

10. Photograph real conditions in North Korea (or another dictating country)

11. Go away for a year with no contact with family or friends

12. Intern at some form of TV/Movie studio in LA

13. Commit to completing a bullet journal

14. Spend a day only with yourself exploring a city

15. Do something without thinking about it

16. Make family and friends a priority in life

17. Own a bakery/small shop

18. Be a professor at a university and community college

19. Work in some form of politics

20. Open your own photography exhibition

21. Work for the Mexican government, especially for establishing rights for its citizens

22. Visit Mexico (and other places) with my family

23. Be a supportive shoulder for family and friends

24. Backpack through Europe

25. Create your own nonprofit organization

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?

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.
