College as Told by "The Office"

I think anyone that is in college will tell you that they have a love-hate relationship with it. I love being with my friends and honestly love my classes, but it does become extremely stressful and hectic at times. If you have ever watched "The Office," you will truly enjoy the comedy of this article.

When you have a test and you have to use the same pencil because you totally believe it has special powers because you used it last time and got an A.


When you decide you are just going to drop out, hitch a ride on a bus, become a hobo and totally run away from all responsibilities that you may have.

When you are sitting back relaxing and your friend texts you asking how studying for the test tomorrow is going. “What test?! We have a test?!”


When you have to write a 10 page essay but you have no clue what is going on, so you just start writing things that are completely untrue.


When your day is literally awful, and all you want is to be four years old again… and maybe eat a bunch of ice cream.


When your professors are the worst, obviously hate you and make everything due the same week. Do you like to watch the world burn?


When you just started Fall semester and you are counting down till summer.


When you finally get to go out.

When all your friends that didn’t go to college think that you are just paying to party. Meanwhile you are completely and utterly dead inside.


When you have gotten no sleep at all and you go completely insane.


When you walk out of a lecture like...

When you are completely stressed and can’t stop stress eating.

When you just cry for no reason at all.


When you should be studying, but you find every excuse you can to not study.


When you have NO money for real food, but you have like three-month old ice cream in the freezer so you eat it for breakfast, lunch and dinner.

When your professor says that Wikipedia isn’t a creditable source.

Literally just college overall.

When you somehow make it through another semester, “I deserve a trophy.”

Here’s to crushing another year of college. I hope you make it through without completely losing your mind.

Taylor Swift in orange dress playing a moss-covered piano on stage with bright lights.

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?
