In case you haven't heard, it is already April. Which means school is almost over! While summer is so close, there still is a month left of non-stop stress. April can be very bitter-sweet. While getting a break from school is exciting, you have to get ready to leave all your friends and the place you called home for almost a year. While stress is the main feeling students will describe, there are other thoughts jumbled around in our brains.

1. Wait...there's only how many weeks of school left??

The realization that it's already April is terrifying. It snuck up so fast and now I only have three weeks to pull my grades out of the grave.

2. I probably should've started this work earlier

The last weeks of school will be filled with papers, projects, and tests. It seems as though teachers also didn't realize how little time we have left and decided to pile everything on in the last month.

3. We have to make the most of the last weekends

While stressing about all the work that is piling up, you also are worried that you won't be able to hang out with friends and go out the last weekends of school. The pressure to make the weekends the best they can be is definitely rising.

4. A whole year of college already gone

I'm a freshman, and the idea that I only have three more years of college is truly horrible. I can't imagine how fast the rest of my time at college will go by if my freshmen year passed in the blink of an eye.

5. Almost summer time!!!

While it is very sad that you have to leave all your friends behind for three months, you also get to be at home for three months! Summer is right around the corner and the one thing that will keep me going throughout the last weeks of the school 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.
