'Big Brother 18' First Impressions
BigBrothernetwork

"Big Brother" is a reality TV show where they put 16 unique individuals in a house for 90 days. They have to complete competitions, form alliances, and try to avoid being voted out of the house until the end of the three months. It starts June 22 and will continue until the end of August. Oh yeah, and did I mention that the house guests are under 24/7 surveillance? As you can imagine, there is always drama and fights with all of the conflicting personalities. Last Tuesday, the cast for "BB18" was released and here are some of my first impressions of them.

Bronte D'Acquisto

Bronte is the type of person that in a span of a three-minute interview turns from someone that you love to hate, to someone that you hate to love. At first, it seems like this sweet girl with a squeaky voice is really out of her element with this show, but then she turns fierce and goes on to say that there is nothing that she won't do to win.


Paulie Calafiore

Paulie has one huge advantage over most of the other house guests. His brother Cody participated in "BB16" two years ago. He's got the inside information and is ready to avenge his brothers eviction by taking home the cast prize for not only him, but the whole Calafiore family. But if the other houseguests find out about his family history, there is a good chance it will put a huge target on his back.


Zakiyah Everette

This preschool teacher seems like she has a plan and knows what she is doing. But as of right now, there is nothing that makes her stick out. She isn't very memorable. This might not affect her game directly, but being more memorable could always help her chances of being invited back for an All-star Season (please "Big Brother").

Glenn Garcia

This guy seems like he could become "likeable," but right now, the only impression that I get from him is that he is like the uncle that everyone has that you're glad you only have to see on Thanksgiving. He is a former police detective, which he has in common with "Big Brother 16" winner Derrick. Perhaps his background could help him with deciphering and Sherlocking the other houseguest's strategies.


Natalie Negrotti

This pageant girl thinks her biggest strength will be her flirty attitude and her physical fitness. With no one special waiting for her at home, perhaps she will be 1/2 of the next greatest showmance. Could she be a part of the next Jeff and Jordan? Or could her showmance crash and burn, and get her evicted from the house even quicker?


Victor Arroyo

This is another houseguest looking for a showmance. He thinks that he can charm the ladies by cooking them a nice dinner. Hopefully this guy doesn't get blinded by the ladies and working on his body and forget that he actually has to play the game.


Bridgette Dunning

This girl may be the bubbliest person I have ever seen, but she seems like she has a plan of attack for this summer. She knows what she wants and knows what she needs to do to get it. Her likeablility will really help her out this summer by getting people to trust her to join alliances. She just has to make sure they all don't turn against her.


Jozea Flores

He was a celebrity makeup artist so he definitely knows how to deal with divas. He also seems like he will have no problem making alliances and doing social game. As long as his success in competitions is just as high, then he should have no problem getting far in the competition.

Tiffany Rousso

Like Paulie, she has a family connection. Her sister was on "BB17" just last summer. She thinks her sister was one of the smartest social game players but thinks she can do better. Her plan to out-do her sister is to not let emotions get involved in the game as much. If she is as much like her sister as she says she is, she should be successful at getting far in this competition.


Corey Brooks

Oh, another Texas A&M athlete. That's not the only thing he has in common with BB17's Clay. They also don't have much knowledge about the show, and are good looking, but don't seem like they have a lot going on upstairs. Will he follow in Clay's footsteps and become a power couple? Or will he prove everyone wrong and go solo on this journey and make it to the end?


Michelle Meyer

After watching interviews of all the cast, she is probably my favorite. She is down-to-earth and very approachable. Her quirky personality should have people loving her. But she has a feisty side that not many people will expect. If she can keep her true intentions of taking no prisoners hidden, then she should be super successful in this game.


Paul Abrahamian

This guy is pretty much as cool as his beard. He has a very 'chill' personality and even said he doesn't care about the outcome of the game. His 'idgaf' attitude could either take him to the end or could frustrate the other houseguest enough for him to be evicted very quickly.


All of these houseguests have positives and down falls, but only time will tell who will come out as winner. Tune into CBS on June 22 to see the first episode of possibly the most iconic season yet.

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.
