30 Thoughts You Have About Moving Out

The end of exams is a satisfying time, but after you drop those pencils and put away the iClicker for a few months, you have to move out of your current housing and into next year's.


Here are 30 thoughts everyone has about the moving process:


1. Time to move out!! You can do this, you grown up human.

2. I wish my parents were here.

3. How exactly did I get all this stuff into this room, and why can't I remember?

4. At least this time, I'll be carrying stuff down the stairs and not up.

5. I'll start with the kitchen. How bad could it be?

6. Oh, I just broke another plate.

7. Maybe I should stop before I break an entire set.

8. Why do I have 45 spoons and 3 forks?

9. I really need to start buying cups that don't have my letters on them.

10. Okay, moving on from the kitchen. Just packing up all my clothes will be half the battle.

11. How can I have this many clothes and nothing to wear?

12. Whoa, I forgot about this top! I really should take a break and wear it somewhere.

13. Maybe I'll just start by packing my shoes.

14. Nope, too much. I'll start with my desk.

15. Maybe just my desk drawers?

16. Why did I think I would need three journals? I don't have time to fill three journals.

17. I didn't use any of this stuff all year.

18. And I'm just going to have to buy it again next year.

19. Didn't I come to school with like seven mugs?

20. And way more towels?

21. How are my roommates already packed?

22. Okay. Packed up my T-shirts. I think I deserve another break.

23. Breaks are so much more fun than packing.

24. But packing is more fun than studying for exams…

25. I wish you could hire someone to pack your stuff and move it.

26. Need more bubble wrap.

27. And tape.

28. I have seriously been to Bed Bath & Beyond too many times this week.

29. I don't even get lost in there anymore.

30. Finally packed!!! Now I'm 100 years old.

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.
