Being Cold Is Way Better Than Being Hot, Because Who Wants To Sweat All The Time?

Being Cold Is Way Better Than Being Hot, Because Who Wants To Sweat All The Time?

Being cold is so much better than being hot. I've always said so. That's precisely why fall the best season of the year. The gradual change from the brutal heat of August to the cooler and fresher September/October months. When you can stop putting on deodorant 3+ times a day and instead take your favorite hoodie back from where it's been stored away for months.

I've never been able to understand why people prefer the summer, where you literally just sweat all day, over the cooler times of the year. Being cold just means you get to wear your cute sweaters, or if you're like me, you wear oversized sweatshirts and leggings every day.

Even when it's below freezing, I love to sleep with my window cracked open. I love being able to sleep with more than one blanket and snuggle up under the covers, where it's nice and toasty.

Yes, I understand that when it's hot, you can go to the beach or the pool, or just sit outside and tan all day. Don't get me wrong, I absolutely love the beach and the ocean, and I look forward to going on vacation to the beach every summer. I just don't like the heat. I wish I could comfortably go to the beach, but not be sweating the whole time.

Don't forget, when it's cold, you can stay in your house all day with your fuzzy slippers on, binge-watch your favorite series on Netflix, read a book, drink some hot chocolate, and have a fantastic time.

Winter can get too cold, I agree. I like looking at the snow, but I don't want to drive in it or walk to class trudging through the sludge. Just think, though, at least it's better than being a sweaty mess.

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.
