7:00 AM - Time for breakfast! Wait.. there’s no milk. There’s also no eggs! Or cereal! You forgot to go grocery shopping yesterday. Dang. Oatmeal it is. Bleh. You are not a fan of oatmeal.

7:05 AM - *Checks social media *Remembers it’s Inauguration Day. Greaaat.

7:20 AM - You walk outside your apartment ready to face the day! However, as it turns out, the light shining through the kitchen window was not from the warm sun, but from a lamp post right outside the door. The heater was also accidentally left on all night, hence the warmth throughout your place. Uh oh, higher utilities. Dang! Also, it’s raining cats and dogs. Your umbrella is nowhere to be found. But hey, come on! Try and stay positive!

7:21 AM - By the time you reach your car, you are soaked from head to toe. Ugh! That’s okay. Blame it on Inauguration Day!

8:00 AM - Yay! Someone brought donuts to work! *opens box* They’re jelly-filled. You absolutely loathe jelly.

UGH Inauguration Day

10:30 AM - Break time! And someone just made a fresh batch of coffee. How sweet.

10:45 AM - Customers are giving you compliments left and right! Way to go, you! Keep up the great work!

12:00 PM - Even the managers are starting to take notice of the excellent work being done by their favorite employee. Today’s turning out better than expected! Woo!

3:00 PM - Time to clock out. It is still raining terribly outside.

3:05 PM - You drop your phone in a puddle.

3:05:02 PM - Panic! That is until you realize it was in a Lifeproof case. Whew! You bend down to pick it up. Someone bumps into you and now both yourself and the phone take another dive into the puddle.

UGH - STINKIN’ INAUGURATION DAY!

3:30 PM - You come home to your comfy bed.

5:00 PM - You text your friends for tonight’s plans. You feel like dancing!

6:03 PM - Another panic moment. You failed to remember your mother’s birthday tomorrow and have yet to buy a gift. Time to scrounge up a last minute homemade gift! Quick - what’s that website with all the cheesy DIY stuff..? Pinterest! Yes! *Starts scrolling through computer

6:15 PM - Power outage from the storm

6:16 PM - Cell phone battery is suddenly at 2%

Woah, hold up! Really right now?

6:16:15 PM - You text your friends one last time to confirm plans for the night. Send. Now you sit in silence. Joy.

8:30 PM - It's been two hours. Power is still off. Cell phone is still dead. The silence is deafening! You grab the keys and drive to your friend Charlie’s house.

9:00 PM - A note is attached to the door. It’s from Charlie! Apparently, they decided to get back with their ex and you are on your own tonight. Seriously? SERIOUSLY?! Now what?!

9:01 PM - You’re powerless, phoneless, and now friendless. That’s pretty much it, right? It can't get any worse. Oh man, it’s starting to rain pretty hard again. Get in the car! Where are your keys..? You turn your head toward the car ever so slowly with the most unfortunate realization…

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.

Here is a few signs that you may live in the library, whether you'd like to admit it or not.
