Two all-nighters already and we're only a month in!

8 Thoughts Every College Senior Is Having Right Now

It's senior year of college, and you've always heard that senior year is the most fun. How come no one ever discusses all the credits you have to cram in order to walk in May on top of completing your internship? Here are just a few thoughts I've had during my first month of senior year:

1. I can handle this course load. I mean, I've made it this far!

Enrolled in 18 credit hours this semester? No? Me neither, I'm actually enrolled in 20 at a college with a 21 credit hour limit!

2. Did she just say "semester-long group project"?

Really? A multiple part, semester-long group project? What's worse than 1? How about 2 different projects?

3. 2 tests + 1 week= 2 all-nighters.

Whatever your caffeine of choice may be, you will stock up on it for the week! However, for a glimpse into the side effects, please see #4.

4. Did I seriously pull 2 all nighters this week?

If you've never overloaded on caffeine and missed many hours of valuable sleep, this is what you look and feel like before the week is over. 10/10 don't recommend.

5. Too hungover.....class too loud.

Thursdays are big nights for college students, but don't get carried away when you have a 9 a.m. on Fridays.

6. There's a light at the end of the tunnel.

Graduation is in May...I can do this. I can make it.

7. Could this professor get any more monotone?

Paying attention to an unexcited, unenthusiastic professor before 11 a.m. can be extremely difficult. Props to professors for putting up with us, but please try to be more excited about this stuff you claim to love.

8. Oh look, a freshman.

Okay, I was a freshman once too, so I'm not hating. However, please stop wearing your keys and student ID around your neck. We don't want to see it, you don't want to do it, just save us all.


These aren't the funniest thoughts in the world, but they're just a few so far this semester. Keep working hard, keep studying, and don't overdose on caffeine!

A Few Thoughts Every College Freshman Has

The transition into adulthood is never easy

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.

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.
