5 Reasons Why Food Is My Best Friend
Dennis Klein

Some people have the self-control to not eat every unhealthy thing in the world. Sadly for me, I LOVE food. And sometimes it's just hard to say no if someone puts one of your favorite foods in front of you.

1. Love at first bite

I can't remember when the relationship between me and food began, all I know is that it was a friend at first sight. We have that great relationship where I get great food and I'm happy. I mean it's part of human's life forms, why shouldn't we enjoy it? I mean it's something you've known your entire life.


2. Comfort foods

Favorite comfort food in one...two...three...go! Macaroni and cheese. There's no way I can say no to trying out someone's mac and cheese. Homemade recipes are the best, and honestly, you can't go too wrong with cheese. Whatever your comfort food of choice is, all that matters is that it makes you happy.


3. Healthy foods

Despite all of the delicious unhealthy foods out there, most times a good, hearty, and healthy meal makes you feel great. Not only are you treating your body right, but it also tastes great. There's nothing like a piece of grilled chicken, side of broccoli, and fresh fruit salad.


4. SWEETS.

Now this one you have to be careful with. It's important to space out extra sugary treats, but I've never denied that I have a sweet tooth. Chocolate chip cookies, vanilla cupcakes, and cheesecake are my ultimate weaknesses! Let's just say, if you buy me any of these, I will love you for life.


5. Thanksgiving

Last on my list, this family oriented holiday. What's not to love about spending time with families and eat a lot of food? I mean way more than you should be eating, but it's two great companies in one day and the endless great foods make slaving over the stove for hours all worth it.


Food is a good best friend because it never leaves and can even improve your health if you eat right. Sure, we all know we eat bad foods for us, but sometimes you just can't control the taste buds within. So keep calm and eat whatever you want.

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.
