Holiday drinks are substantially better than pumpkin spice and no one can change my mind.

1. Caramel Brûlée Latte 

Espresso, steamed milk, and caramel brûlée sauce topped with whip cream and bits of caramel.

2. Peppermint Mocha 

Honestly, the peppermint mocha and caramel brûlée latte are tied for first. These are my two favorite holiday drinks; I order them on rotation. The best part of this drink is definitely the chocolate curls on top.

You can also order the peppermint mocha as a frappucino, but who drinks cold drinks in the middle of winter?

3. Chestnut Praline Chai Latte 

During every season other than Christmas, chai tea is my go to drink. The chestnut praline chai latte adds a holiday twist that'll make you want to roast chestnuts over an open fire and maybe sing a Christmas carol or two.

4. Chestnut Praline Latte

Basically the same as the drink above, minus the spice and flavor of chai.

5. Holiday Spice Flat White 

In general, a flat white is a really good, simple drink, excluding all the "froofy" ingredients of the other holiday drinks. Simply a classic.

6. Gingerbread Latte

I love the mix of sweet and spice that comes with this drink, plus, the ground nutmeg on top is an added flavor bonus that really makes you feel warm and toasty on the inside.

7. Toasted White Chocolate Mocha 

This drink is a little too much on the sweet side for me, but also I'm not a supporter of traditional white chocolate mocha. Sorry not sorry.

8. Eggnog Latte

Eggnog for sure weirds me out, despite the fact that it is a holiday staple. Not a fan. Again, sorry not sorry.

Happy sipping!

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.
