1. Isn’t Millbrook a private school?

Yes, but not ours. Even though our name sounds rich and fancy, we are still a state public school.

2. Why are all the girls pregnant at your school?

*obnoxious eyeroll*

No. No, we aren’t. Just like any high school, there will be teen pregnancies. More than 98% of the female population will not become pregnant and graduate from Millbrook. Further questions?

3. Why is your only school color blue?

It’s Carolina Blue AND Navy Blue. Two separate colors. And it’s way less tacky than other high school’s colors.

4. Why is your football field so far away from your building?

Do I look like an architect to you? I don’t know. Ask the people who built the school.

5. Why do you guys think you're better than everyone else?

Why do you assume that we think that. Most Millbrook students are very genuine people and are always willing to help. If you ask for help, there is always someone willing to help you out.

6. The only thing you all are good at is music and basketball.

False, our cheerleading team went to States, our football team did incredibly well this year, our track team has dominated year after year and our theatre program is to die for. We are a well-rounded group of kids.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

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?
