11 Reasons Why Mondays Are Now The Best Days

If there is anything that women across the country can agree on, it is that Ben Higgins is, quite possibly, the most perfect man to exist. Not only is he a genuine, down-to-earth guy, but he adorable in every way. Although it pains us to watch him fall in love with other girls (yes, Caila, we are going through the struggle too). No matter what is thrown his way, Ben handles it with grace. While Mondays are typically the worst days of the week, here are 11 reasons why it is now the best day of the week... all thanks to one beautiful man.

1. We get to see Ben Higgins be the cute little button that he is.

Just look at that face! No wonder millions of women across the US are swooning. Never thought I'd be able to relate to the emotional breakdowns on the show, but now I can... Olivia's birthday cake stunt actually doesn't seem that crazy.

2. We are greeted by this beautiful face when we turn on ABC at 8/7c PM.

I'm not going to sit here and act like I don't daydream about this brown-eyed beauty greeting me when I come home from my fictional job because I definitely do (I know I'm not the only one).

3. We get to imagine being one of the lucky women on the show... who actually get to be around Ben.

While the girls on the show go through the pain of dating the same guy, we go through it too, but from our couches... months after he has potentially found love. Ben is a catch and we are jealous we didn't sign up for this season because, honestly, I don't think he can be topped.

4. We don't just get a glimpse of this face, we get it for two hours.

...or even three if we watch The Bachelor Live. It's a face we can never get too much of.

5. We can spend a solid six to eight hours dreaming about what it would be like to get a rose from this hunk.

The one perk about The Bachelor being on until 10 (9 central, or, at least, that's how I think it works) is that we can immediately take a shower and go to sleep to dream about Mr. Higgins.

6. We get to see the degrees of crazy that Ben deals with and justify why we would, obviously, be the best one for him.

We would never jump out of a cake and embarrass ourselves and you... or get mad about you not making eye-contact with us during the rose ceremony... or refuse to speak sweet, sweet Spanish with you... unless there were upward of 10 girls competing for your heart (no worries, girls, we understand).

7. We get a constant re-adjustment to our standard in men.

Seriously, if this entire generation of college-aged girls in the United States remains single, you can guarantee it is a direct result of Ben Higgins' Bachelor stint. I, personally, refuse to date someone unless they take me on an airplane ride to a secluded hot tub. THANKS, BEN!

8. We exercise our ocular muscles every time certain people make it to the next week...

Let's just say I have never rolled my eyes as hard as I have during some of these rose ceremonies. Let alone when a girl is interviewed that I have never even seen before. Regardless, I get my weekly attitude quota out of the way on Monday, so thanks, ABC!

9. We get to come up with new plans for our future.

Now that we have seen what The Bachelor can offer (a 6' 5" perfect example of a human being), we now want our own. We never planned on going on a reality TV show to meet the love of our life, but now that's a viable option, Again, THANKS, ABC!

10. We get to be a part of a new family.

Whether we watch the series with our sorority sisters, real sisters, roommates, pets, or Lean Cuisines, you can bet your ass we are going through an emotional roller coaster. This only gets worse when ABC decides to do things like this (see above and below).

11. We sweat more than we would have if we went to the gym.

After this article alone, you probably sweated the equivalent of running a mile in Palm Springs on a July day. If there was any justification for skipping gym day on Monday it's this -- imagine the amount of water you lose watching two hours of this specimen.

*Once again for good measure*

A Few Thoughts Every College Freshman Has

The transition into adulthood is never easy

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. Here is a few signs that you may live in the library, whether you'd like to admit it or not.
