New year doesn’t mean "new you"

5 Resolutions Every College Girl Will Try To Keep
Sheffields

There are five stereotypical new year's resolutions I think every college girl has seriously made in her head, but won’t really keep up to speed with come January, here they are:

1. Going to the gym more

This is everyone’s new year's resolution, to start going to the gym and getting into shape, but the likelihood of the motivation to go to the gym every day just because it’s a new year is unfortunately slim to none.

2. Eat better

If your resolution isn't to go to the gm maybe it’s to cut out so many sweets, or stop eating pop tarts and chips in your dorm room all day- to eat a little healthier. But after the holidays when you’ve gotten used to sweets and big meals at Christmas time, makes them even harder to give up.

3. Not going out as much

Maybe your new year's resolution is to switch your priorities from partying to studying. Hopefully, the new year will encourage you to skip that Wednesday night frat party and to stay home and study for your exam the next day instead.

4. Not let boys walk all over them

2017 is the year you stop putting up with those annoying boys because you’ve finally realized life is far too short to be wasting your time on them- please don’t go back to them.

5. Take more pictures

No matter how many selfies and instagram pics we take we’ll always look back and wish we had pictures of events that only exist in our memories- so remember to snap a few more pictures and remember 2017.

The fact is that every year we all try to change ourselves for the new year, but unless you really want to make the change, a new calendar date won’t change anything. Only new attitudes and motivations will so make those your resolutions for 2017; Happy New Year!

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.
