Dear Senior Year Me,

You made it, I am so proud of you. It's been a long road for you, and after pushing yourself you finally made it to your senior year. It'll be a unforgettable year that will change you for the best I promise that. All I can say is enjoy every second because it goes quick.

This year will be amazing for you! So many opportunities and expierneces waiting for you. You'll be surrounded by your group of friends, your loving family and boyfriend. You'll be the happiest you've been in a long time.

There will be so many great memories for you as well; senior homecoming, dates, football games, parades and more. These are some of the many memories that you will take away from higschool and will cherish them forever.

You've come a long way, and remember to thank your family especially your mother. She has always been there for you, and is your biggest supporter. Remind her how much you appreciate her and love her.

Remember the good times, the many days you spent in the band room taking band lessons, sitting in the band room afterschool before an away game, singing on the bus with the band, performing in front of a crowd. They will be the best and most memorable part of your high school career.

It will be a difficult year to, there will be people who come along the way espically in auditons who will try to break your passion for music and your spirit. Take a deep breath and show them what you can do, believe in yourself because everyone else around you does.

You'll prove the professor who tried to crush your dream wrong when you passed the auditon the next day and made it in the music department at the other school you had an auditon for, see hard work does pay off.

You're going to look back a year from now, and look back to all the photos and memories and it's going to hurt. I'm not going to lie. You'll realize the painful truth of who truly cares for you and who dosent.

Cherish your friends and tell them how much they mean to you because before you know it, each of them will disepar one by one. That's the most heartbreaking thing I will ever tell you. After you graduate, your world will change. The friends you once had will dispear and leave you in pieces. Only the true friends who stook around helped you put them back together.

I wish I could hold you and wipe away your tears, but this made you a stronger person. You probably thought that once you headed to college, you were never going to find love again or make any new friends. Right?

Well, I hate to say it, you were wrong.

College will open many new doors for you and you'll be so happy, much happier than highschool. You'll meet the love of your life at college, you see god has a plan and putting you through all that pain ended up being worth it.

Enjoy senior year and cherish the memories and also remember to believe in yourself.

Love, college me.

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.
