7 Things To Do Now That the Apocalypse Has Arrived
Pieter Bruegel the Elder

Now that the United States has followed Britain into this weird, nihilistic satire of what we used to love so dearly, the nightmare is just beginning. So, here's seven things you can do to alleviate the pain of existing in this nightmare world that we ourselves created.

1. Liquidize your assets.

I honest-to-God have no idea what the hell this means, but it sounds smart and everybody who tells me to do is a balding, middle-aged white guy in a power suit, so clearly it's the right idea.

2. Sell all your grandmother’s heirlooms.

There's nothing left worth fighting for, including sentimentality and moral integrity, So, f**k it. Just gather up everything your grandmother once cherished and auction them off to the highest bidder. Nothing matters, and that includes emotional attachment to anything. You're already the family disappointment anyway. Time to prove 'em right.

3. Burn all your old "Now That's What I Call Music" CDs as a sacrifice to the Ancient Ones.

They saw you bought them. They judged you. But now it's time to beg for forgiveness, for we have angered them.

4. Drink, drink, drink.

You're going to die, your loved ones will die and your liver will die, too. Go ahead and ruin everything you once held sacred. God has left this place for good.

5. Date indiscriminately.

Why not, right? Dating is hard enough as it is without the looming threat of a ruined world hanging over your shoulder. It's your last chance for a relationship, or for any semblance of the happiness that you once felt but have long since forgotten.

6. Post angry status updates on social media.

Duh.

7. Just fling yourself into the f**king sun.

We will all perish with nothing to show for the astronomically insignificant existence we once claimed mattered.

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?
