An Apology To My Neglected Webkinz

My babies, my children, my Webkinz,

We had a fantastic few years together. I collected you like dogs collected fleas and tax collectors collected, well... taxes. Each and every one of you were special to me.

To my first born, Riley, the White Terrier. You began the obsession, which is something to be proud of. You helped mold me into a skillful Webkinz mother, but also a young girl searching for the diamonds in the Curio Shop Gem Mine of life. To the others that followed in suit of Riles, I love you none the less. I think about you guys often, and to quote Taylor Swift, "This is me swallowing my pride standing in front of you saying I'm sorry for that night." I guess I just grew up, and with a heavy heart and no other way to put it, I forgot about the wonderful world of Webkinz. I got older and busier and I know it's no excuse because I could have easily put the time I spend on Twitter into Webkinz, but you guys did take a back seat.

I'm sorry for neglecting you, and I'm sorry for letting you down by continuously not winning Kinz Cash on the Wheel of Wow, but dammit, you have to understand that it's a game of CHANCE! And speaking of chances, please give me another one. I know I let you down once, but I promise I won't do it again. Say hello to Ms. Birdy for me. I'll be back soon.

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 ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’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 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?
