Growing up with two brothers is interesting and fun to say the least. I truly did love growing up with my older brothers; however, there was always a part of me that wanted some sisters too. You know someone to talk to and do girl stuff with! Instead of sisters, I turned to my friends for this, which was great and fun to have girl friends for those things. However, nothing could compare to the feeling and relationships I gained from having sisters-in-law. It was genuinely as if a prayer had been answered or a wish of mine had come true. Having sister-in-laws has changed my life for the better.

When both of my brothers found these girls, I was over the moon! I had never been so excited in my life. First of all, these girls were PERFECT for my brothers in every way. They were fun, hilarious, GORGEOUS, and kind. Little eighth grade me was ecstatic when they started dating them. Then when they both got engaged, I was so happy for them. Not only were my brothers marrying the women of their dreams, but I was gaining two older sisters. I was getting something I always wanted. They also fit very well into our family, which is another blessing. I cannot imagine life without them.

Now to my sisters in law, you both are the best sisters I could have ever asked for or been given. I am so thankful that you met my brothers and became apart of our family. I love all the memories I have made with both of you. I love and appreciate you both stepping in all throughout high school to help me get ready for dances. Lord knows I would have looked like a drowned rat without both of your help throughout those years. Thank you for all the advice you all would give me if I ever talked to you about anything serious. I appreciate doing nails with y'all. I appreciate all the car rides. I am thankful for the many moments of laughter you have brought over the years. Most of all, I am thankful for the opportunity to have a sister that you both have given me, I am so happy you both are in my lives. I look up to you both so much. I hope to be like you guys one day. I love you guys.

I do not know how I survived so long without sisters. I am glad I have them now though.

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.
