Those moments where you think, "Dear Lord, I did not say that..."

1. The drunk text.

You said you were never ever going to talk to that person again. But here you are, and with the help of (a lot) of liquid courage, you'll end up hitting send to that text you definitely should never have written. It's probably going to lead to you having to apologize, explain yourself, or just block someone altogether.

2. The fight text.

Sending angry paragraphs or just snarky passive aggressive ones to your significant other or friends will not only start a fight over text, but also have the chance to be misinterpreted, since people can't read your general tone in your texts. There are definite reasons to get into a fight with someone - but do it in person, or at least, over the phone.

3. The "I miss you" text.

It's probably late at night and you're missing your ex. There's nothing wrong with thinking it, but there are LOTS of reasons you probably shouldn't send it.

4. The shit talking someone behind their back text.

Or basically anything that can lead to blackmail. Don't send anything that can be screenshotted and sent to the person themselves, or that you wouldn't want to say to them directly.

5. The wrong text to the wrong person.

The message about someone to the person you're talking about. The accidental sexts to your parents or grandmother. Things straight out of nightmares.

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.

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?
