The Aunt That Every Girl Hates

Usually, people love it when their aunt comes to visit. She spoils you, you guys do cool things, and she brings you gifts. But every girl has that one aunt that comes around, and you just want to hide from her.

And that aunt is… Aunt Flo.

Every month, Aunt Flo comes to visit for about eight days.

Let’s start with the arrival of Aunt Flo…

When Aunt Flo arrives, either she comes unannounced, or you know she’s coming and you’re just anticipating her arrival, and not in a good way.

Once she gets there, she shows up loud and ready to stay for the whole week… and you’re dreading every minute of it.

First off, she wants you to go everywhere with you!

She wants to share the bed with you and not let you sleep at all.

That first night, and every night after, she’ll wake you up in the middle of night at least 10 times.

Aunt Flo loves food, and she’s going to make sure her love of everything she lays her eyes on is shared with you.

You normally get a five piece chicken nugget meal at Wendy’s, but as soon as Aunt Flo gets there, she has you buying a 10 piece nugget with a large fry and a diet coke… you don’t even like diet coke.

Aunt Flo is kind of like your grandma when you were younger; she always wanted you to take nap when you just wanted to go on about your day.

But Aunt Flo is a little different. She always wants you to take a nap. Even in the middle of working out.

Her presence makes you aggravated, and you might take it out on some people. Just say, “Sorry, Aunt Flo is in town." They’ll understand.

Aunt Flo loves chocolate, and now you do too. Simple as that.

She’ll make you cry for no reason at the most inconvenient times.

She just has that effect on people, especially you.

You know how aunties are known for pinching your cheeks when your little? Well, Aunt Flo is the aunt that has now graduated to this pinching and poking thing on your stomach… constantly.

Whatever you choose to wear, she’s going question every decision you make.

Aunt Flo gives you constant headaches.

Constant. Throbbing. Intense headaches. And sometimes, there’s not enough Midol in the world to shut her up!

Just when you think she’s packing up and leaving, she decides to stay one extra day… or two.

Depends on how she feels. You have no say, so.

Most likely, you won’t really miss Aunt Flo, but if there's any chance that you might miss her, don’t worry, she’ll be back next month.

No one likes Aunt Flo. You don’t, your friends don’t, but you all have get through that week long monthly visit.

Everyone has that aunt.

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.
