My best friend has been my best friend since the 8th grade. One summer we spent every day but Saturdays together and we never got tired of each other. Just like any other girl we dreamed of the day that we moved in with other and became roommates...but little did we know what would happen ...

1. If you haven't already, you guys will have your first real fight.

It didn't happen until after a couple months, but it finally did. EVERYTHING hit the fan, but we fixed it quickly.

2. You will still never get enough time with them.

I'm not a person who does well around the same person for long periods of time, but even with us living together, I never see her enough.

3. You'll accept that they are allowed to have other friends.

This one hits home. She has been my best since the 8th grade and never had a boyfriend..until now and I miss her. But I love her and he makes her happy, so he makes me happy.

4. You'll learn to not let them be mad.

THIS IS HOW OUR FIGHT STARTED. Don't tiptoe around each other. It's awkward.

5. You guys will feel like you're drifting away.

With everything going on, its hard to find time with everyone. Just remember at the end of the day, that's your best friend. Lay in bed with her, lay on the couch with her, annoy her. Love her.

6. You learn to manage time better.

You learn that even though you want to spend time together maybe you can study together instead..or clean your apartment.

7. IT'S ENDLESS FUN

Seriously, I love every second of living with my best friend.

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.
