Have you ever wondered what you're supposed to do if you are not going anywhere fun for Spring break? Well, you've come to the right place. Stop wistfully scrolling through everyone's beach pictures, and do some of these cool things instead!

1. Watch Netflix all day.

Honestly, I sort of feel bad for the people soaking up the sun on some beach in Florida (but not really), because they don't get to binge-watch their favorite shows.

2. Treat yourself.

Go shopping, and go eat at your favorite places. You are, indeed, saving tons of money by not going on a trip, so it's okay to indulge in yourself a little.

3. SLEEP IN!!!

I don't know about everyone else, but this is my all-time favorite thing about breaks. While people on vacation usually get up super early to sight-see, you get to sleep in as long as you want every day.

4. Catch up on homework.

Eww, I know. But if you're anything like me, your professors assigned 12 readings, 7 assignments, and 2 exams due the week after Spring Break. You can get ahead and be much happier when you get back to school than Sally who went to Miami Beach.

5. Spend time with family and friends from home.

The real reason we all go home. It's important to spend time with the people you care about and don't get to see often.

But on a real note, I am super excited for everyone going on awesome vacations (and maybe a little jealous)! I am personally going to be at home doing the things listed above. However you choose to spend your break, at least we all have some much-needed time away from school!

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. For some students, it's their first time in the library all semester, maybe ever. Others have slaved away many nights under the fluorescent lights, and are slightly annoyed to find their study space being invaded by amateurs. 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.
