A Cheers To Friends

To my every kind of friend.

A Cheers To Friends

Recently, one of my professors asked the class to go around and share their most prized possession. Some of the answers included their iphone, their car, a necklace from their great grandma, along with many other items people have been passed down to them, and a lot more ‘stuff.’ Stuff that of course, has values, stories, and meanings.

However, her question resonated with me for a while afterwards, and I thought about the question in a less material sense. I decided that my most prized possessions are indeed my friends. In result of this I decided to make a toast to all kinds of friends. The possessions we can’t put a price on.

To the friends who I can always count on.

Having people that you can rely on is something so important. You may not always want to rely on others, but when you need it it's so special to be able to turn to these people.

To the friends who trust, believe in, and count on me.

Being trusted by someone you care about is one of the most amazing things ever. It means that they value you, your opinions, your ideas, your knowledge, and your friendship.

To the friends who give me advice.

Receiving advice from the ones who mean the most to you is extremely valuable.

To the friends who take my advice.

It's nice to know when somebody values your advice, and is reassuring when they take it, apply it, and are glad they did.

To the friends I’ve known forever.

Friends for life are the best kind.

To the new friends.

I was lucky to have met you.

To the friends who I don't speak to every day.

I know you'll always be there just like I'll always be there too. Some of the best friends are the ones who you can pick up with right where you left off.

To the friends I do speak to every day.

Thanks for always making my day 100 times better.

To the friends who are more likefamily.

To know someone for so long and grow such a close bond with them is something to be so proud of, and grateful for.

To the friends who are my family.

Because family members are some of the best friends you'll ever have.

And to every friend in between.

Thank you for being a friend. Friendship is one of the best things we get in life. Cherish, appreciate, thank, love, and be grateful for all and every kind of 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.

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.
