Standing outside the walls of Alexandria is very surreal

I recently went to Atlanta, Georgia for “Walker Stalker Con Atlanta” and it was a great experience! I also went to several places from the show "The Walking Dead" as well and it was an incredible experience too. Here’s my top 5 favorite locations!

1. Where it all started

This was the alley way that Glenn was hiding down in Season 1, Episode 2 “Guts." Rick would run up the street to this spot and run down the alley and then climb up a ladder with Glenn to escape a herd of walkers.

2. Woodbury

Woodbury (Senoia was used as the location) played a major part in Season 3 of the show, as it was where the Governor, Phillip Blake, was the leader of a community of survivors that would rage war with Rick and the group! Also check out “Nic and Norman’s” if you are ever down in the area. It’s really good!

3. Alexandria Safe Zone

This was quite possibly the most surreal place to stand. We were standing right outside the walls where so much of the story has taken place. This was an amazing experience and I really wish I could have taken pictures inside, but security ended up telling me to go away. Regardless, this was very fun to see in person. It is also right outside of Senoia, which is also known as Woodbury.

4. The Hospital Rick woke up in

The hospital from the series premiere “Days Gone Bye." This was the location where Rick woke up from his coma and was introduced into the Walker infested world that we know and love from the series. In reality, it’s actually an abandoned shelter of some kind.

5. Esco Feed Mill

This feed mill played a key role in negotiations between Woodbury and the Prison group in Season 3. This was mainly “Arrow on the Doorpost” where Rick has a sit down with The Governor to discuss peace options. It is also featured in the opening credits for Seasons 3-5.

Bonus: Terminus

Terminus was the home to a group of Cannibals who lured people in by pretending to be a welcoming community. They were at one point until a group of bandits made them change their ways. This location was used in Season 4 Episode 16: “A” and Season 5 Episode 1 “No Sanctuary."

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.
