An Open Letter To My Cat

Thank you for being my best friend.

An Open Letter To My Cat

Dear small, furry, loveable, huggable, creature that has taken over my heart,

There are many things I could say to you that you wouldn't understand anyways because you're a cat, but that doesn't matter. You understand me sometimes, except for when I say no, which is quite often. You can always put a smile on my face even when you're waking me up at 7 A.M. because you want out of my room that I trapped you in all night. Thank you for being my best friend when I need one and listening to me talk about my problems even if you can't respond, which is maybe for the best.

You've seen me at my best, and you're there for me when things get rough. Believe me when I say that I will always be there to fill your food dish and clean your poo, because it's the least I can do for you. I love it when you snuggle with me by my feet at the end of the bed, even though when I go to move you think my feet are monsters and you attack them and leave me injured, but that's okay.

It's amazing how you always know when I get home and even if you're a little salty that I was gone for a while you still rub up on my leg anyways because you know I feel guilty. I miss you so much when I'm on vacation, or if I'm at school for the week, or even if I'm just gone for a few hours. I know you're a strong independent cat who don't need no owner, but I like to think that you like having me around and you miss me too when I'm gone.

I'm sorry if I smell like other cats sometimes. I know you feel like I have betrayed you because I had to run after a cat that I found outside just so I could pet it, but you're my number one always. There's no cat that could ever replace you in my heart.

I'm sorry for taking so many pictures of you. I am also sorry for buying that one halloween outfit for you that didn't fit, but I made it fit you anyways and you fell right over, but I at least got a cute picture out of it. You should probably hate me for that, but you still love me anyways. There have been numerous Christmas pictures that I had to force you to take with me as well, but those also turned out cute so it's fine.

Thank you for always being my little, furry, best friend. Your tiny, little, pink, jelly bean paws and tiny, little, triangle nose make my life all the better. I'll always be here for you to give you food, water, poo cleaning services, and tons of snuggles no matter what.

Love always,

Your crazy owner

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. 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.
