The Best Songs From College Students' Most Awkward Times

If you’d let me I would like to take you back in time to those middle school days we all loved so much.

10. Akon ft. Snoop Dogg's “I Wanna Love You”

This song came out when I was in middle school back when you would sing every word but bleep out the f**k. Shout out to the kids who bought the explicit version and hid it from their parents on iTunes.

9. Fall Out Boy's “Sugar, We’re Going Down Swinging”

This song was always the go-to in seventh grade when you were standing around all awkward and scared of the opposite sex at the dance.

8. Soulja Boy Tell 'Em's “Crank That”

I’m not saying Soulja Boy is good, but he did tell 'em. The point is if you weren’t doing the dance in middle school you were doing it wrong.

7. Chamillionaire's “Ridin’ Dirty”

When this song came out, for some reason kids thought it was OK to rap about riding dirty. It was a jam, though.

6. Jesse McCartney's “Beautiful Soul”

Yeah, I still listen to this song when it comes on. I'm man enough to admit it.

5. Lil Jon's “Get Low”

This was the anthem for all kids that needed an excuse to scream some inappropriate words "from the window to the wall." If you didn't scream the chorus you were a weirdo.

4. T.I.'s “Rubber Band Man”

Absolute Flames.

3. Avril Lavigne's “Sk8er Boi”

I don’t care who you are, this song comes on and every single one of you know the words. This was everyone’s guilty pleasure.

2. Kelis' “Milkshake”

There was no way this wasn’t making it on here.

And coming in hot to no surprise at number 1:

R. Kelly's “Ignition (Remix)"

So this song will forever come on at every party and everyone will forever be happy for the four minutes it’s on. "Bounce, bounce, bounce, bounce, bounce."

Hopefully, you can appreciate these hits and reminisce about when the world was a much simpler.

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.

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.
