5 Questions Twins Always Get
Waiting For Next Year

These are 5 things twins are used to hearing regularly, by friends or complete strangers.

1. "Are you guys twins?"

This is definitely the top question that twins will receive from people. Without this question, the rest of the questions about just being twins will not exist. If you are a true twin you will be guilty of sometimes telling people you are just friends instead of twins to make them feel crazy.

2. "Did you dress alike when you were little?"

This is another one of the questions that everyone will ask. If you were a part of one of the sets of twins who dressed identically, you will reluctantly answer yes to this question. You remember your childhood being filled with getting matching outfits on birthdays and Christmas, and your mom making sure your outfits were exactly the same as your twin's each day.

3. "Do you have twin telepathy?"

The answer to this question is always no. Even though most twins feel very close to their twin, almost close enough to know what the other is thinking, twin telepathy is not a thing.

4. "Do you want to get married to other twins?

This is one of the weirder questions you can get. When someone asks this question, you most likely try to envision all of the twins of the opposite sex you can think of that you know. The answer to this question can be mixed depending on the twin, but is most often no.

5. "Which of you was born first?"

If you are the older twin, you will jump at this question. You cannot wait to inform someone that you are the older twin, even if it is only by a few minutes. If you're the older twin, you use it to your advantage always.

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.

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.
