To My Boyfriend Who's 500 Miles Away

To the guy who deals with me and my life from 500 miles way.

Dec 13, 2016

To my boyfriend who's 500 miles away,

I want to start off by saying thank you. Thank you for trying to make a long distance relationship work. Thank you for reminding me constantly that college classes aren't the end of the world. And thank you for not giving up when we haven't seen each other for 2 months. I know sometimes long distance can seem almost pointless, but every time I see you it's like Christmas morning. I mean really when you think about it we kinda just extended Christmas.

Speaking of Christmas! I'm about to be home for Christmas break, and that means I have a month to plague you with way to many pictures being taken. It also means you will probably be willing subjecting yourself to a ridiculous amount of weird Christmas themed couple activities, such as but not limited to: baking, Christmas pictures and a weekend trip to play in fake snow. Thank you for pretending to be just as excited about these as I am.

I always thought people were ridiculous for saying they were homesick for a person. I now completely understand that your home is where your heart is, and my heart definitely is with you. Thanks for dealing with way to many FaceTime sessions and calls on the phone when I'm upset.

You are absolutely incredible. I can't express to you how grateful I am and how excited I am to be in the same time zone again. I can't wait for more awkward pictures and a ton of amazing memories. I love you dude.

Love,

Your girlfriend who's about to be a heck of a lot closer

Taylor Swift's Eras Tour is What I Hope Heaven Feels Like

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

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?
