8 Reasons Being a Wedding Planner Rocks!

If you go to my profile you'll find out that yes, I'm a wedding planner, but that is all it will tell you about the subject. I haven't described what drew me to the profession, what I like about it, or what fun things I've learned while being in the business. So let me tell you exactly why I think being a wedding planner rocks!

1. You have a reason to be a hopeless romantic; watching rom-coms 24/7.

2. You get to make people smile constantly! It's YOUR JOB TO MAKE THEM HAPPY. Making them happy makes me happy.

3. Smelly smelly flowers. I love flowers, in all shapes and sizes, and when I'm helping a couple choose their flowers it makes the little Earth girl in me jump with glee.

4. Have you ever had fantastically catered food? I have. The best caterers I know work primarily on weddings.

5. You're both the logical business woman and the creative designer. It's the best of both worlds; especially for people like me who are left AND right-brained.

6. You're not just a wedding planner; you also play therapist, best friend, chauffeur, and delivery service.


7. Big hair, little hair, lots of hair, no hair... all the pretty 'dos with flowers, veils, pearls, etc. Whatever the bride wants she gets!

8. Pretty dresses, duh! I'm typically the type of person who likes what society refers to as the more "masculine" things, but when it comes to wedding dresses I'm a total girl. Bring on the chiffon, the tulle, the lace, the rhinestones...just bring it all on! Then slap a veil on and put a bouquet of stunning flora in your hands. There is nothing better than seeing a bride weep with joy and excitement when she realizes that she's found the dress she's going to take her vows in.

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.
