I'm so happy for you!

To One Of My Best Friends  As She Becomes A Bride
Hailie Dion

Hey girlie,

I can't believe we are finally here. We've passed student teaching together, completed our senior years together, and have crossed the stage to get our degrees together. So now we're here. This is the day we've talked about during our late night FaceTime chats, and before and after classes, and your big day is finally here!

I may not have known you for too long, but I've known you long enough to know that you have been eager and waiting for this day since you got engaged. And I don't blame you! You two were meant for each other, and I am so happy that you have found your person, and now you get to spend forever together.

The relationship you two have is something out of a movie. Two best friends who finally get together after years of being "just friends," fall in love, and live happily ever after! It's the relationship girls everywhere dream about, and you're living it! It might not have been the easiest thing to do, with your late night FaceTimes and notes and flowers via snail mail, but you did it! You both made it out on the other side stronger than ever, and we've finally made it to your wedding day! I'm so happy for you.

I just know you two will surely live "happily ever after." I have no doubt in my mind that he will treat you like the princess that you deserve to be treated, and that you'll work through anything that tries to get in the way of you two's happiness.

You compliment each other so nicely, and more importantly, you're best friends first! And that's a beautiful thing to see in this generation-- true love.

Just know that I am so so happy for you. And even though you'll be moving pretty far away, just know I'll be there whenever you need me-- whether it's a FaceTime call, a road trip, or an overnight flight, I'll be there. I promise.

We may have just met four years ago freshman year, but I cannot picture my life without you in it. We have made it through some of the most challenging parts of our lives together, and I do not plan on giving all of that up simply because you'll be moving to a different state after the wedding.

We may be growing up and moving on after college, but we will never move apart. You will always be one of my best friends, and I will always be here whenever you need me.

I'm so happy to have met someone like you, and to have such a great friend in you. I'm so happy that you have found happiness with your now husband (whoa that was weird to say..you're "adulting"!), and I'm so happy to be able to share in your special day with you.

Thank you for being a lifesaver these past four years, and being my friend.

I love you, pal! And congratulations on your big day!

Love always,

Hails

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.
