With the semester reaching the halfway point and classes catching up in school work from all of the snow days, it naturally becomes a busy time of year. We tend to forget these five important things in our life when we quickly begin to lose our free time.

1. Breathe

Our day to day schedules sometimes tend to get overwhelming, and we feel like we might not even have a second to breathe. Remind yourself to quickly take a deep breathe if you feel yourself getting lost in the madness.

2. Sleep

I cannot express how IMPORTANT sleep is. Never feel that you do not have enough time or hours in the day to sleep or let alone take a nap. I promise you, you always do.

3. Eat Healthy

Remember what you put into your body is what you get out. Make sure you eat three meals a day, with at least some fruits and vegetables at every meal.

4. Time Management

No matter HOW busy your day may be, always schedule some time for yourself. Whether you are taking a quick nap, going to the gym, watching an episode on Netflix, hanging out with your friends for a little or calling your parents, know that there is ALWAYS time for YOU!

5. You Got This!

We are humans; we are not perfect. We make mistakes. Live your life to the best of your ability. Know that you are capable of any overcoming any challenge that comes your way!

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.
