26 Thoughts We Have The Day After Christmas
She Knows

Christmas might be over, but we aren't all finished with it yet. Here are 26 thoughts we all have every 26th of December.

1. Well damn. It’s over.

But there’s only…

2. 364 Days until Christmas!!

3. Let’s play with all of our stuff right now!

4. I want to wear all of my clothes at once!!

Sobering up, there is.

5. So. Much. Cleaning.

6. And we’d better take down these decorations…

Oh lord. *looks around post-apocalyptic living room*

7. Can’t we just leave them up until next year?

8. Can you recycle wrapping paper? Who brought this fancy kind? This is as thick as cardboard. There is no good way to crumple this.

Finished with that, moving on: time to get ready for the day. Let’s look at the spoils.

9. Ugh. I’m so jealous of my sister’s gift. Hers is such a better color!

10. And what about this shirt… are these frills? Oh man, how do I return this?

11. *Googles* “How to subtlety ask for a gift receipt”.

I’m finally dressed. Let’s go get some breakfast.

12. YAASSSSS LEFTOVERSSSSS.

13. And we should probably eat all of these Christmas cookies today.

14….I had better make a New Year’s resolution to go to the gym.

15. Wait, what am I doing for New Years?

16. More cleaning, probably.

17. I should go get a new dress for the party! But oh no… I’m just going to ignore my bank statement.

18. I wonder if I can still convince everyone to watch Elf a few more times?

Then, the horrible revelation:

19. No more Christmas music.

Okay. I think I’m actually done with Christmas. Now I’ll spend the rest of my time with my relatives

20. Feeling obligated to wear ugly sweaters.

21. And really hating whoever got drums for my nephew.

And those drums do a great job reminding me of my

22. Massive hangover.

23. Good God. When do my relatives leave?

24. Screw it. One more cookie. It’s not past New Year’s yet.

Speaking of which,

25. Where did all the liquor go?

26. Better buy more before December 31st.

Happy Holidays!

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.

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.

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.
