Back To School With The Help Of Some 'Friends'

For many of you, summer is the best time of the year. No school work and a lot of relaxation. Being home from the first year of college, I have many feelings on going back to school. Not only am I super excited, but also a little bit anxious. So, I thought what better way to tell it than with the "Friends" cast.

Super excited for what's to come within the next year. Excited to see your school friends that you've been away from for three months. Excited to get back to your home away from home.

Denial and sadness. Summer is over already?! Even though there are many excited feelings going on, there is a also denial that you have to go back to school. Back to reality...without your home friends or family or homecooked meals.

Anxious. As ready as you are to go back to school, there are also a lot of nerves that come with it. Another year away from family and friends on top of that all the stress of school work yet again. Getting ready for all nighters in the library!

Relived. It's about time! It feels like ages since I've been back on campus and I'm relived I get to start another chapter of college this year. Ready to meet new people and enjoy so many new experiences this year. Finally the time has come.

Ready to happily reunite with your school friends. After a long couple of months, getting ready to see all the faces you haven't seen in so long!

Ready to go out again. Excited to go out and have some fun with your friends just like last year all over again!

Ready to (try to) share food with your roommates, which doesn't always work out too well.

Ready to listen to your new professors who will engage you in learning and showing you all the knowledge you came to college looking to learn!

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.
