Venmo is probably the best thing that ever happened to college students.

You don't have to take $20 out of an ATM every time you owe someone money or want to do something (which is especially annoying if you don't have a bank in your school's area). Venmo is used for a lot of different transactions, but in college there are certain ones that every single one of you has done.

Like these:

1. Alcohol runs

Literally 80% of Venmo transactions.

2. Pizza

Someone has to take the hit for that midnight delivery.

3. Frozen Yogurt

There's always that one friend that goes ham at the self-serve froyo place and doesn't have enough in their account until payday (guilty).

4. Midnight food runs

TACO BELL WOOT WOOT

5. Gas

Gotta get the cash money for those airport rides, am I right?

6. Uber rides

There's a fee to split rides on Uber. When in doubt, Venmo it out.

7. Impulse Amazon Prime order.

You just ordered enough Pirate Booty for the semester? I'm definitely going to be part of that investment.

8. Movie tickets.

And popcorn.

9. Parent Donations.

Always welcomed.

10. Rent.

Roommates feel this one.

11. Utilities/Internet/Cable/Netflix bill.

And all of these, too.

12. Emergencies.

Someone always loses their wallet.

Taylor Swift in orange dress playing a moss-covered piano on stage with bright lights.

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 ā€˜wildest dreamsā€™. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, Iā€™m still in awe of the spectacle ā€˜Miss Americanaā€™ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylorā€™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 clichƩs, 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 donā€™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. Donā€™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.
