Middle school was such a great time to be alive. We had Tamagotchis, sleepovers, crocs, nachos for lunch, acne, easy homework, trampolines, Gameboys, flip phones, and middle parts, but best of all, we had middle school dances. Do you remember dancing to Akon with your gauchos, braces, and Air Forces on? Me too, and it was the best. Those songs we danced to have a very special place in my heart. Here is a list of just a few of those songs to help refresh your memory (Disclaimer: I graduated middle school in 2010 to give you an idea of the time period)...

1. Lipgloss - Lil Mama

50. Hey Ya - Outkast

Of course, there are many other hits from the 2000s that we jammed to when we were "like 12" but, these are some of the best (and no one has time to read over 50 songs anyway). So listen to these in the shower, in the car, while you're walking your dog (or cat if you're a weirdo), in "da club," or wherever you feel like it. We all need a little Akon or Avril in our lives once in awhile.

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.

It's easier than you think.

"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.
