50 Things I Would Rather Be Called Than Hot

Being a woman means getting called names that are inappropriate and insulting. Basic, bitch, slut... the list could go on and on. We are never deserving to be called these names and are more than what people think we are. I don't care who you are, those names are degrading. If you're like me, you've been hit on or cat-called more times than you want to admit. There are way too many beautiful words in the dictionary to be reduced down to being labeled as "hot" or "fine." So I put together a list of words that I love and I think women should be called:

1. Beautiful

2. Gorgeous

3. Pretty

4. Smart

5. Talented

6. Lovely

7. Strong

8. Hilarious

9. Enough

10. Loyal

11. Open-minded

12. Amazing

13. Valuable

14. Creative

15. Kind

16. Generous

17. Considerate

18. Brave

19. Friendly

20. Imaginative

21. Intelligent

22. Playful

23. Supportive

24. Determined

25. Reliable

26. Loving

27. Enthusiastic

28. Confident

29. Observant

30. Compassionate

31. Insightful

32. Witty

33. Warm

34. Patient

35. Outgoing

36. Independent

37. Easygoing

38. Energetic

39. Upbeat

40. Understanding

41. Thoughtful

42. Artistic

43. Glorious

44. Valuable

45. Wonderful

46. Stupendous

47. Cute

48. Lovely (I just really love this word, so it deserves to be on here twice!)

49. Angel

50. Perfect (As in, "You're perfect how you are.")

Women are beautiful creatures who deserve the world, as are men. Next time you think of calling someone a negative name, think about what that means and try to be positive instead. Plus, you'll earn some brownie points!

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.
