The city of bridges, and black and gold. If you live anywhere near Western Pennsylvania you call the city of Pittsburgh home, and why wouldn't you? It's the the greatest city in the world, or maybe I'm just biased. But seriously, have you ever seen a city as beautiful as this?

Or this?

Probably not. And If you think that is all we have to offer, just wait.

Pittsburgh has some of the most beautiful sights you'll ever see, and we are proud of it. This gorgeous city is famous for its iconic views, sights, and its triple threat sports teams. Its colleges and universities bring even more beauty to the city if that is even possible. It sits on the edge of the meeting point of three rivers and with all of this beauty, what isn't possible is to not fall in love with a city like this.

The accents of these yinzers are known from dahn tahn all the way around the world n'at. Its food can't be beat. From perogies, to Wholey's, and of course a Primanti Brothers' Philly cheese steak with coleslaw and fries (well anything with fries) are all crowd pleasers here.

If for some odd reason you have never experienced the city, you are about to now. Here is your virtual tour, welcome to Pittsburgh!

The first time you drive through the long tunnels that open up to a gorgeous city skyline is one you'll never forget.

Once you are here, there is so much to see. Let's head over to start at the North Shore. Yes, this is real.

While you are on this side of city, I know you want to check in on a few sports teams. We love our ketchup and we love our Steelers. Here we are at Heinz Field, home of six time Super Bowl champions, The Pittsburgh Steelers.

And let's not forget about PNC Park, home of the Pirates and arguably the most iconic beautiful sight of the city.

But we won't stop there. Let's take the Duquesne incline up to Mt. Washington. Restaurants and bars line the edge of this breathtakingly picturesque outlook that overlooks the entire city.

I mean seriously.

Our final stop downtown is a decorated Pittsburgh at Christmas time. From November to December, the city is even more beautiful, if that is even possible. The Plaza is transformed into the ice rink at PPG Place as it is decorated with the well anticipated tree that is set up for the holiday.

This is only the start to the city of black and yellow, so come back and visit again! We will be here to show you around. A Pittsburgher is always a Pittsburgher. No matter where you end up or where you roam, this city is always home.

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.
