6  Reasons Why Dogs Are Better Than Boys
Emily Faddis

If there's one thing girls love more than boys, it's cute dogs. Something about their adorableness just makes us all go wild and want to take in every dog we see. When boys are usually out breaking hearts and playing games, dogs are at home, waiting to give you love and waiting for you to give them belly rubs. It has been scientifically proven (by me and my dog Riley), that dogs are better than boys in many ways.

1. They listen to us (mostly).

Let's face it, girls. We know that 90% of the time, our guys aren't listening to us, and if they are, they give us answers we don't want to hear. Dogs are always interested in what we have to say. I can sit with my dog and talk to him about anything, and he will sit there and listen to me, even though he probably doesn't understand a word. And he understands the word "no" than most boys.

2. Their extreme happiness when we come home.

There's nothing better than coming home to a pup who's so excited you're home that they just jump all over you and get slobber everywhere. We never get tired of seeing our dogs. We wish guys were that excited to see us.

3. Their soft, fluffy cuddling.

Let's face it, cuddling with a soft, warm puppy is way better than cuddling with a guy who's muscles make it feel like you're cuddling with a rock. (Both are nice, though.)

4. Puppy kisses.


There's just nothing better than puppy kisses, period. Not even boyfriend kisses.

5. They will follow us anywhere and do whatever with us.

Most times, if you have a guy, you have to beg him to come somewhere with you. With dogs, they are always willing to go anywhere with you, as long as they are with you. My pup has made many car rides very entertaining. Plus, you get to play whatever music you want, and they won't complain like a guy would.

6. Their unconditional love and devotion to us.

A guy can say he will love you forever, but that doesn't mean he means it. They don't have to be there your whole life. Dogs are always there. From day one, until the end, your dog will love you every day. There is no better feeling than knowing that you are there for your dog throughout their whole life. They will love you forever, and be there with you through everything.

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.

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.
